History

Diskarmor swings on a chain in Rygar (1987), Tecmo's weapon that is both shield and yo-yo. The NES game stretches that tool across a large side-view adventure, with a map far wider than the short looping arcade original.

The arcade Rygar repeats a brief course. The NES quest keeps the chain shield and then adds temples, fields, and a longer road for the warrior.

Tecmo's home version is the one players describe as an adventure. The diskarmor is the shared weapon, and the size of the NES map is the difference.
