- This game was named differently depending on the region of release. The recent re-release combined these two names in a way that is pretty clever when you think about it
- One of the original titles shares its name with an iconic heavy metal album. The theme of this game is also the same as the album cover. Surely not a coincidence.
- It was released on two home consoles, which had some minor differences, including in level design. The recent re-release worked to merge these two level designs. There was also a PC version with the same name, but this had completely different levels.
- A first person shooter where power ups allow you to revisit levels to access previously unreachable areas.

Oh, I realized #28, this is Powerslave which was named Exhumed here in europe. It is in my backlog of old games which seem very interesting but I missed back in the day and intend to play now (once I find time).
