Line 6:
* ''Return to Dark Castle'' (2008)
{{tropelist}}
* [[Anachronism Stew]] - Wizards, dragons and [[Fantasia|self-pushing brooms]] share the castle with lasers, conveyor belts, and iMacs.
** In the original version, there's graffiti in one of the rooms that say "Alaric was Here" and "Huns Rule". In the Genesis version, it's "''Saddam'' was Here" and "''Gamers'' Rule". Huh?
* [[And Then John Was a Zombie]] - {{spoiler|At the end of the second game, after returning to the Scores of Merit screen, Duncan is turned into the new [[Black Knight]].}}
* [[Anvil
* [[Black Knight]] - The [[Big Bad]].
* [[Bookcase Passage]] - A fireplace, activated by tugging on a wall-mounted torch.
Line 29 ⟶ 26:
* [[Incredibly Lame Pun]] - Your quest is, literally, to topple the Black Knight's throne.
* [[Jet Pack]] - More like a ''helicopter'' pack.
* [[Kill It
* [[Life Meter]] - Takes the place of the level timer starting in ''Beyond Dark Castle''.
* [[Lightning Can Do Anything]] - {{spoiler|Hold the Shield up to a thundercloud to be imbued with its magic.}}
Line 35 ⟶ 32:
* [[Non Lethal Bottomless Pits]] - Falling into one from anywhere in the castle will send you to the dungeon to fight your way out.
* [[Not the Fall That Kills You]] - Oh so averted. Falls in the third game are deadlier than in real life.
* [[One
* [[Poison Mushroom]] - White potions with black labels teleport you. Black potions with white labels kill you. Got that?
* [[Save Game Limits]] - In ''Beyond Dark Castle,'' you can only save from the Computer Room (with its five sets of matched SAVE and RESTORE levers).
Line 43 ⟶ 40:
* [[Spikes of Doom]] - Extend and retract in an automatic cycle.
* [[Super Drowning Skills]] - Falling into the water in the "Fireball" levels of the first games will kill you . . .
** [[Convection, Schmonvection]] - . . . but in ''Color Dark Castle'', the water was replaced with ''lava''.
* [[Temporary Platform]] - Ditto.
* [[The Maze]]
