The Guardian Legend
Reviewers liked the game for its multiple features. Some have compared the game to other Nintendo games like The Legend of Zelda and Metroid. Mike Engler, who made Retro Game Challenge, said that "The Guardian Legend is one of the best games ever released". The game was nominated by Nintendo Power magazine in 1989 for "Best Graphics & Sound", "Best Play Control", and "Best Overall" but did not win any of them. Some of the music of the game were remixed.
