INTRODUCTION & GAME STATUS
As a reasonably quick one to fill the gap between August and the upcoming Ocean October, I decided to take a look at a game, that I knew from previous experience, would not be too complex to write about. My first memory of Martech's Nemesis the Warlock was reading about it from a Finnish games yearbook in the late 1980's, where the reviewer mentioned the game's ultra-violent approach, which instantly piqued my interest, being a horror fan from an early age. It wasn't a particularly praising review, but the concept of games being ultra-violent was a new idea to me then, and I did wonder, how would this style be approached in a computer game. So, having only ever played the C64 version, I wanted to finally see, how the two other versions compared to it.
