Music and sound effects really try hard in this version and they’re decent, but aren’t quite up to the standard of the SNES.
I’m using a custom DOSBox launcher (not the 2013 version in case you’re wondering). This time around I opted for the DOS version. The music and sound effects on the SNES version more than made up for it in terms of atmosphere. While Blackthorne missed out on the cut scenes that helped make Another World and Flashback the classics they are, it doesn’t really take away anything from the game itself. You might get a little Prince of Persia déjà vu when playing. Blackthorne easily ranked up there with Another World (Out of this World) and Flashback, although more simplistic in its gameplay. The SNES version immediately had me hooked. Blackthorne was later released on the Sega 32X in 1995, Classic Mac OS in 1996, GBA in 2003 and Windows, via a custom DOSBox build, in 2013. Released initially for the SNES, then DOS, in 1994.
A LIDL now stands where the site once was.īlackthorne is a cinematic platform game developed by Blizzard Entertainment and published by Interplay Productions.
I bought it from ‘Hidden Levels’, a video game store located near the Beggars’s Bush in New Oscott. Blackthorne (Blackhawk in the UK) first came my way via the SNES in the ’90s.
