Product Information
The evil mage Morbius has kidnapped Princess Eleanor and disappeared. You're Shadax, the brave warrior who seeks to return Eleanor to her rightful place. You'll search through the treacherous Kastlerock for the six pieces of the magical Staff of Demnos, the one thing that can help you rescue the Princess. Make your way through more than 250 exciting, unique rooms, battling deadly beasts and solving intensely complicated puzzles. Plenty of keys will lead you to hidden areas and many potions will lend you the gift of transformation. Graced by stunning 3D graphics, SOLSTICE looks and plays like an arcade adventure, but has the patience and replay value to make it one of the most complete epic the NES has ever known.Product Identifiers

Great puzzle-platformer with killer music
I bought this game specifically for the awesome opening theme song, but little did I know that the whole soundtrack was pretty catchy as well. The gameplay is also equal amounts fun as it is challenging; none of the puzzles ever feel unfair or unsolvable, which is fantastic, especially since games from this era normally like to be incredibly difficult just for the sake of it. The whole package comes together to truly make a unique and memorable experience for anyone looking to play some old games on the classic NES system.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Solstice -- A Game to Remember!
Solstice: The Quest for the Staff of Demnos is an isometric "3D" perspective fantasy-themed puzzle-solving adventure game for Nintendo Entertainment System. Developed by Software Creations (Mike Webb, programmer; Mark Wilson, graphics; Tim Follin, composer) in 1990, it was released in North America for NES via CSG Imagesoft. The vivid box and cover artwork was painted by Mike Winterbauer. The game has over 250 rooms to explore, dozens of enemies, and hundreds of puzzles. Play as Shadax the good wizard who must enter the cursed Kastlerock to gather the six pieces of the Staff of Demnos in order to defeat the evil wizard Morbius who has kidnapped the princess Eleanor. Magic items and potions help with the adventure along the way. This was an amazing game when released, and holds up well to the test of time. At first the isometric (slanted) controls are a bit hard to master. It's incredibly difficult to "complete" 100% (meaning to explore all rooms, gather all items, and complete all objectives to win the game). However, it only a moderate challenge to beat the game with a score less than 100%. The game has one of the most amazing soundtracks from the 8-bit era, with a progressive title track composed by Tim Follin which has a three minute playtime (one of the best game music tracks of the era in my opinion). The game works great on NES, but will also function on modern retro clone consoles. There are a handfull of useful "Game Ginnie" cheat codes available with a simply Google search, and several walk-thru tutorials available via the same means. If you like old-school 8-bit games, and don't already have Solstice in your collection, I highly recommend picking up a copy. It's will worth the investment.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
