The white lion ran away and found a shelter in a dark cave near the town.
Some years later, Maria's parents organize an expedition to the cave in order to find out what the white lion really is.
But they never come back...
Now Maria has to go to the cave and to search for her parents.
Equipped with the famous spear the brave soldier Moja used to defeat the lion, she receives the village elder's permission to descend into the cave.
But while wandering through the dark corridors, she falls into a river, and a strong current brings her to the Dream World.
She no longer can return back, and the fairies who inhabit the Dream World tell her that the only way to defeat the lion is to travel to yet another world - the Dark World...
In this game, you control Maria as she travels on the world maps, visits towns, and descends into dungeons.
The battles are turn-based and are viewed from first-person perspective in Dragon Warrior style.
Instead of party members you have ghosts you can summon to help you in battles, such as the soldier Moja and others.
Hit points and magic points are called Courage and Dream, respectively.
You gain levels only by finding special items, not from fighting random monsters.
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.
Gamevaro tracks Ghost Lion for Nintendo Entertainment System with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Ghost Lion to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NES release dates back to 1989.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Ghost Lion, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Entertainment System titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
