The global video game industry is marked by production releases of all kinds. From peaceful worlds like Animal Crossing to darkly intriguing worlds like Elden Ring, players have the choice. But as thousands of licenses shape this industry we love so much, have you ever wondered: what is the hardest game in the world? A recent study may have the answer!
Disclaimer: We are going to tell you about a study conducted by casinoenligne. Of course, determining the most difficult game in the world is not an exact science, but the teams that conducted the survey tried to get as close as possible to it thanks to various factors.
What is the hardest game of all time?
The study comes straight from the site OnlineCasino.ca, who recently tried to determine which video game productions had the most drooling gamers around the world. For this, they based themselves on different factors:
- The final difficulty score (via website Ranker).
- The number of hours to complete the main story and hours for a full player (via How Long to Beat).
- The percentage of dropouts during the game and tally of the time required to reach the end of the game (via How Long to Beat).
- Scores of Metacritic.
- Scores of GameRankings.
- Search by volume search for solutions on Google internationally (via Google Keyword Planner).
Using all these indicators, the site’s analysts concluded that the most difficult game in the world is: Ghosts ‘n Goblins. Of course, Dark Souls comes in second place and Battletoads closes the podium.
What is Ghosts ‘n Goblins?
Much less known than FromSoftware’s games because of its age (1985), Ghosts ‘n Goblins is a platform run’n’gun developed by Capcom. Like a Mario game, the plot follows the adventures of Arthura knight ready to do anything to save his dear princess.
The game developers say so on the official video game production website, Completing Ghosts ‘n Goblins is quite a feat.
The Dark Souls license seems to have a strong opponent in terms of difficulty. If you are a fan of extreme tryhard as well as joysticks thrown out the window, we therefore advise you to tackle the games present in this ranking!
