Anyone ever play King's Knight by Square for the NES?

I remember playing this a long long time ago, and later when my friend had it. Console Classix (http://www.consoleclassix.com) just got it a couple of days ago. Its like a shooter-adventure, heavily on the shooter part. Instead of flying a ship, you control a character that shoots a missile to kill the enemies and destroy the landscape while the map scrolls up horizontally.
There's 4 characters in the game, a knight, a wizard, a dragon, and a theif. When you die with the knight you play the wizard's stages, and so forth. The game is hard! Its really easy to get hit, and there's items that reduce your life everywhere. I have no idea what most of the powerups do, but I seem to strengthen my weapon after a while.
I was thinking this game was really hard when I was sucking, but it seems you can get better because I actually beat the first level with the theif. [i]There's actually more levels! I've never seen another level before![/u] In each level, there's enemies everywhere, and your missile only shoots so fast, you have to dodge a lot of enemies and projectiles, while dealing with the blocking terrain.
