Very different version from the Amiga one.
However Black Magic is a ambitious game. Mazes, animals, various kind of difficulties. Learning where the eyes are is a priority. When you collect all the eyes and bring them to the statue of Aganar then the game is not over yet: you have to bring down Zahgrim, and so confronting him in a final duel.
Black Magic is a game world, primitive but effective. Music is almost only effects.
