* GuideDangIt / TrialAndErrorGameplay: Critic claims this is a flaw with the game, simply because it's not clear what you're supposed to do at some points (i.e. having to run away from the skulls as opposed to slashing them with your sword, which just gets you killed) and that the arcade games randomization of the levels makes it harder to memorize what you're supposed to do. He also criticizes Dragon's Lair II for using this for the items you have to collect, because you literally have to play through the entire game again to get them all before you reach the real ending.
