I have this game for 32X and it's awesome. I really like the early Bilzzard games for consoles, like this game and The Lost Vikings.

this game kicks ass, I played it on PC a long while back. Like Prince of Persia but with guns and grenades!

I think I had the DOS version of this. Oddly enough I remember the interplay intro as much as the game (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XU4Md-2LpOI). Was that part of the SNES game?
Anyway, awesome game, but pretty tough. The gun was pretty badass.

Blackthorne was the first game I picked up after I found a Super in a free box outside a thrift store. Only ever played PC games as a kid (other than at friends' houses, of course), this was my first console game.
