It names no developer.	`printed p. 2, A Special Message From Captain Commandoprinted p. 2printed p. 2PDF p. 13, warrantyPDF p. 13, warranty`	Manual
The NES manual's Princess is kidnapped, and her lover the Knight, armed with five weapons, must pass seven gates to rescue her. An evil demon guards the end of each gate; killing it drops a key from the sky that opens the next gate, and at the seventh and last the Knight fights the Devil hand to hand.	`printed p. 5, How to Playprinted p. 6, Hints on Game Play`	Manual
In the NES manual, B throws a weapon and A jumps, and A then B at once throws while jumping. A first hit takes the Knight's armor and a second kills him. Jars hide the five weapons, javelins, torches, swords, axes, and crosses, and the Knight starts with the javelin.	`printed p. 5, controlsprinted p. 5, controlsprinted p. 6, Hints on Game Playprinted p. 6printed p. 7, Hints on Game Play`	Manual
