Gameplay

Ghoul Panic is a cooperative shooter for two players, released in 1999 by Eighting, Raizing, and Namco. Players control characters battling waves of monstrous creatures using weaponry that can be upgraded throughout gameplay. Utilizing the Namco System 12 hardware, the game features dual CPUs and a dedicated sound chip to deliver its action-packed experience. The core gameplay involves navigating through various environments while targeting and destroying enemies with precise joystick movements and button presses; six buttons are available for control. As players advance, they can enhance their firepower and defensive capabilities to face increasingly challenging foes. A Japanese original release known as "Oh! Bakyuuun" predates this export version. A port of Ghoul Panic was later made available on the Sony PlayStation in 2000.
