Completing SNES games - Warlock Part 1 - Collecting the first 2 stones
Based on a movie I haven't seen but seems awesome so far
This is game #23 in my series for completing SNES games using an emulator and ROMs.
In the game Warlock I start off getting used to how to attack and what to do including using the orb that surrounds me... which is based on the direction you hold on the d-pad/movement keys and moves differently.
These quests are for all the stones needed to reach the final boss which you will see throughout, the warlock trying to stop me from progressing. It continues in a library sort of building with a variety of AI people turning into zombies, there are werewolves and at the end guarding the first stone is the warlock for the first fight with him.
He uses the same ability buy also levitates above and teleports to get around in a fight that ends up quick to learn and easy enough to win.
Outside in the level next up, thorns rise from the ground and bugs and other enemies are around, turns out I am not the biggest fan of the outside but it proves a worthy challenge!
Watch me get to a levitation crystal part and take some time to work out which spot I am meant to be in, which ends up being back in the level inside a cave.
This cave is filled with slime creatures, some form of dragon in the ceiling at multiple parts and a wide variety of enemies to keep up with the quality design and fun this games bring.
Eventually I reach the second stone I need and struggle against a heap of spiders which are troublesome to get pass, but I keep going and get to the end of the level and the progress is slowly getting there, slowly getting closer to the end with a heap more stones and levels to still pass if I want to finish this great game!
Streamlabs OBS used for recording and setting the scene with SNES font, my avatar and the game picture for what I am playing.
Emulator used: RetroArch
ROMS: They are the games
Saving: Using emulator saving between levels or occasionally in tough parts so I don't always die and repeat so then the game can get completed.

I own this game!! Its so hard but super fun and cool. Its not easy being a Warlock!! !PIZZA
You got an original copy?
This would be one I would get when I start buying physical copies again!
Definitely a lot of hard parts but was so much fun, I would've failed without the save and load states haha!!!
Reminds me of Stargate the game for SNES, just the sort of design/quality in how it is as a platformer.
Yes I do! Somewhere around here. I played it not too long ago actually. Its harsh realism, you only have one life!! I would like the orb and fire powers. I havent beaten it yet though, one day I will.
Man I am always jealous when people say they got their original hardware, though mine is growing so I am happy with that.
Haha yeah but you get all those powerups and things to help out. Work on it and good luck with trying to pass it!

I just sat there and watched the awesome pixel art design this game had. What a great style. Never heard of the movie or the game but seems like something I would have enjoyed.
Yeah the design and style were great, was done well.
I knew of the movie a while ago, never had seen it though but I agree with it would also be something I would enjoy.
