If you were to die, you’d have to start over from the beginning of the game! It may not be scary, but it is quite annoying and unbelievable. Imagine you as Aladdin flying with the magic carpet and need to attack and deflect?

There is no entertainment in that. Just for masochist... I would only give 2 because the Producer of the game has not released a patch to correct this “genius trait”.
Actually the save or password would make it too easy since it's a rather short game. If you don't rush it you can finish 50% in first sitting ever. Then in few more sittings after you get to know those later levels you'll get to final boss in not time. The final boss is pretty tough. Especially if you don't defeat it in first try when you have a lot of apples for throwing (when you loose life you're down to like 10 apples and that is not enough for final boss). But it's manageable, I've done it last year, Genesis version via Gens emulator (without save function).
