Review
Also known as
Beware the Ultimate Evil of Warlock ウォーロック

Travel through time to find runestones and battle creatures using magic spells.

Warlock for Sega Genesis was released in 1995 by Acclaim/LJN, based on the 1989 film; the legacy year 1994 is incorrect for this platform version.

About Warlock

Warlock is a video game adaptation of a 1989 film. Its premise involves a recurring celestial event, where druid guardians must use magic runestones to stop a powerful entity from returning. These stones are hidden across various times and locations, creating the central objective for the player.

Players navigate through distinct stages, confronting creatures and solving occasional puzzles. Combat primarily involves projecting energy from an orb or casting spells to eliminate foes. The game can be considered fair, as some more durable enemies require strategic approaches to defeat.
