Most of the game's soundtrack is taken directly from the movie and arranged for 8-bit audio. While they lack the refinement of an orchestra and the vibrancy of David Bowie's voice, they capture the music quite well. You will also hear a couple new themes created by [[Tsukasa Masuko]], though they act mostly as filler. Tsukasa Masuko, having programmed his own sound driver, probably also wrote the audio engine. According to Masuko, he wrote the music in [[assembly]]. | Most of the game's soundtrack is taken directly from the movie and arranged for 8-bit audio.

Labyrinth: Maze of the Goblin King | ||||||
|
- For other versions of this game see Labyrinth
Labyrinth: Maze of the Goblin King (ラビリンス 魔王の迷宮, Rabirinsu: Maou no Meikyuu) is a fantasy action game similar to Gauntlet (NES), but with a more specific goal. In the opening scene you learn that Jareth, the Goblin King, has kidnapped your baby brother, Toby, and taken him to his castle beyond the Goblin City. You are given 13 hours to guide Sarah through the huge labyrinth consisting of 12 sections including the exterior, the unending passage, the stone maze, the hedge maze, the underground, the forest, the Bog of Eternal Stench, the Goblin City, and more.
Sarah is armed only with a rock, and she must throw it at various enemies from the movie including fairies, goblins, and fireys. Each time an enemy hits you you lose precious seconds in your quest to find your brother. As you journey you'll also find hearts which you can use to call your friends Hoggle, Ludo, and Sir Didymus to help you (though they mostly get in your way). You will also receive help from the worm who sells you items, and the old man with the bird hat, who grants you more time and teleports you to different parts of he labyrinth.
While the game does have some annoying control issues, it's vastly superior to most movie conversions, and it's really a shame that it wasn't localized for English play. This version is very different from the game that was released on the MSX, Commodore 64, and Apple II.
