The only minus that the SNES version have is, obviously, the lack of violence courtesy of Nintendo. This further enhances the cool atmosphere the game tries to settle, which can't be said when it comes to the PC version! Its weak, medieval and run-of-the-mill soundtrack isn't really that inspiring. The game got this ambient, rocking soundtrack that constantly keeps you on your toes. This is one of the things which mesmerized me about this game. Also, it got the smoother animation and graphics from all other versions of the game that I played (I never played the 32X version though). Well, this is the version of the game which I played when I was a kid. Who knows, maybe they play stone-trading games in this parallel world? Either way, this Sarlac dude must DIE, but not you. Basically, you must stop a beastly being called Sarlac, who wants to steal the Lightstone from your dead body, in order to be the supreme ruler of Tuul. There is a rather elaborate story of the game, which, however, can be summed up to this: 'The human race of the planet you're living on is enslaved by mean orcs, only you can save the day all thanks to your mighty gun by shooting everything in your way'. Blackthorne basically was the lovechild of Flashback and Prince of Persia: a platform game with a great deal of exploring, gunfighting, all combined with the casual puzzles that will block your way as well than several acrobatic feats that you must pull off.

Released under a great handful of gaming platforms in 1994, like the PC, Mac, SNES and the Sega 32X (and a more recent Game Boy Advance version released in 2003), this game definitely was the ultimate badass game until Duke Nukem 3D came out, a few years later.
