'''''Clash at Demonhead''''' (called ''Dengeki Big Bang!'' in Japan) is an open-ended action adventure game for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]].
 
You take on the role of a soldier named Billy "Big Bang" Blitz, who is contacted during a vacation with his girlfriend Mary about a kidnapping attempt on Professor Plum, a scientist who constructed a Doomsday Bomb that will [[The End of the World Asas We Know It|destroy the world]]. At the start of his mission, Bang encounters Tom Guycot, the kidnapper. Guycot tells him that he and the seven governors of Demonhead Mountain have taken the medallions used to power the device, and issues a challenge to Bang to try and find them. With no choice but to cut his vacation short, Bang goes off to find the professor and prevent the world from being destroyed...
 
Not to be confused with the band from ''[[Scott Pilgrim]]''. But it's obviously named after the game, which Bryan Lee O'Malley claims was the first NES game he ever had.

Line 12:
* [[Destructible Projectiles]]

* [[Fairy Companion]]: Faysha.
* [[Giant Space Flea From Nowhere]]: The Demon itself has ''nothing'' to do with Guycott or the [[Doomsday Device]]. Interestingly, it shows up at the middle of the game, and nobody, good or bad, [[Didn't See That Coming|saw that coming.]]
Line 22:
* [[Meaningful Name]]: Guycot is a pun for the Japanese word for "skull".
* {{spoiler|[[Monster Is a Mommy]]: After you defeat the Demon, you stumble upon a room full of his/her/its eggs, which you have to destroy before you can escape its lair.}}
* [[Name's the Same]]: "Professor Plum" has nothing to do with the board game ''[[Clue (Tabletop Gamegame)|Clue]]''.
* [[Nintendo Hard]]
* [[Non Lethal Bottomless Pits]]: Subverted. While falling into pits doesn't kill you, you get taken to an area where you have to fight your way back to the surface, making you start the route over again.
