I ended up enjoying this more than I thought I would, even if it's pretty rough around the edges. Each episode is dedicated to a whole "theme", so while many of the levels blend together after long play sessions, the designers have more opportunities to explore why particular level themes work. Episode 2 is probably my favorite, as it's chock-full of intricate and challenging medieval levels.

There are some cool additions here: powerups like the Empathy Shield, the laser cannon, and enemies like the flesh-eating and weapon-stealing Gremlin. Unfortunately, many levels are overlong and there's some frustrating trial and error segments related to environmental obstacles. Also, Mjölnir is severely overpowered and the Horn of Conjuring is laughably useless in most situations.
