It is then up to Eddie to keep the Weasels away from Roger or engage in knock-knock jokes should they happen to catch him.Arkista's Ring

Interestingly, Arkista's Ring is an example of an early game with a female protagonist-an elf named Christine. The game is now considered to be a particularly rare NES title.
