Hello Adrian,
I had a look to shadow of the beast 3 some monthes (or perhaps years) ago.
I think this game is probably one the best game in a technical and artistic point of view.
As the game has also a good gameplay and is specific to the Amiga (no other existing version on other platfforms I think) it is certainly one of the masterpiece of the A500.
There are four "worlds". If I have good memory, one at least (the castle) is in half bright mode (64 colors) and others are un dual playfield.
The main character and his shuriken are sprites.
The mountains in the back are an animation : we have the impression that there are 2 planes of mountains and therefore that the screen is in quad playfield but the two planes of mountains are a same animation. It is very well done.
The option screen of the game is in dual playfied : the platforms and the ladders are in 8 colors (!). The front of the screen are the title and the menu info. I will check that with winuae and will confirm (or not) these first data.
