Genpei Touma Den/Secrets

Hidden Option Menu
In the PC-Engine version, press Up, Right, Down, Left, I, II at the title screen (when showing the "Press Run Button") to access the hidden option menu.

In this menu, you can:
 * Select the difficulty from "Leisure Path", "Painful Path", or "Thorny Path". Default is the "Painful Path".
 * This scales the damage taken from enemies. Take the Skull Spider in the Hell for example, in "Leisure Path" it needs to attack 8 times to remove one of your life candles, in "Painful Path" it needs to attack 3 times, and in "Thorny Path" it only needs to attack twice.
 * Adjust the starting life points. Value can be set between 4 to 7, indicating the candles you start with.
 * Toggle the stage select. If enabled, a stage select screen will appear after starting a game.
 * There is a value which can be set between 0 to 59. Some values will show the corresponding level, while others are invalid and cannot be used.
 * Listen to the sound effects.
 * Listen to the speeches.

These functions might be adjusted with dip switches in the arcade version.
