Completing SNES games - Young Merlin Part 8 - Ending the final boss to save them all
Great way to end a solid game
This is game #25 in my series for completing SNES games using an emulator and ROMs.
In part 8 and the final part of the game Young Merlin I make my way through to the next area of the mine cart tracks to face that annoying blob boss once again which isn't heaps hard still just needs to require using the mirror Merlin along with skill and moving about to dodge and keep distance or you will end up dying that's for sure!
After looking at how to actually beat him this time it turns out, I need the split off so I can freeze then burn the slime parts which is a lot easier and quicker, allowing saving the wizard from the slime!
Now it is onto the final boss time.. This is the guy from earlier that summons the eyeballs which I end up burning them to make him mad, then he turns into some weird demon creature thing summoning bombs that I use the balloon item to defend against before he turns the lights out and starts summoning lightning balls.
Now what is needed is the pendant from the lumberjacks daughter which shoots out lightning! Turns out that it is easy to finish off this boss if you keep making yourself a balloon while the pendant recharges, rinse and repeat and the boss is defeated!
As for the game for the letter Z... This is of course Zombies Ate My Neighbours!
I had this one picked out from the start, it was a must for me to play and oh how I love this game, the challenges including item management, quick gameplay or weapon/item selecting and so much more.
The level and character design is done well, music and sounds are epic and overall a top rated game.
Streamlabs OBS used for recording and setting the scene with SNES font, my avatar and the game picture for what I am playing.
Emulator used: RetroArch
ROMS: They are the games
Saving: Using emulator saving between levels or occasionally in tough parts so I don't always die and repeat so then the game can get completed.
