This game has good ideas for its time, but it controls.. pretty badly. It combines beat-em-up and platforming in a way where both of them feel just okay (at the best of times). You get to drift in the air to platform better, but it controls unintuitively. There's a magic system, but there's no real control over it as what spell comes out is entirely dependent on how much magic you have available. The invincibility spell you get at 3-4 magic flashes the screen pretty badly, too. On the plus side, there's multiple sections in the game where you control one of three different mounts, shaking up the gameplay a bit, but some of those sections make it hard to tell what you should be doing to avoid getting hit. At least, the difficulty curve is pretty fair and it looks great for a Genesis game.
