Young Merlin on Super NES: Walkthrough, part 1

Start by picking up the purple diamond right next to you. Cross the bridge. In the beginning, Merlin helps you. When you pass the level of the bridge, a bubble appears telling you to press "Y" to use your diamond. Press "Y" near the pond to throw the diamond. A beginning of a rainbow forms and a star appears just to the right of the waterfall. Every time you get a diamond back, you will have to come back and throw it here. Take the star, it will automatically be set as your primary weapon ("B" button). Follow Merlin's instructions (go right while staying at the top because you cannot pass the carnivorous plants). Don't go too fast to stop in front of the tree with red eyes as shown in image 1 (not too close). There, fire without stopping until it explodes.

Go behind the tree (to the right) and take the bottle and the diamond. Return to the waterfall to throw the diamond. A second object appears (a bag) as well as a second part of the rainbow. Take the bag. You can fill your bottle by assigning it to the "Y" button (either by pressing "select", placing yourself on it and pressing "B" or by pressing "R" or "L" until it appears at the bottom left under the "Y" button) and using it near the lake. All "bottle" signs indicate that you can fill your bottles at the nearby water point. The rainbow potion restores one heart of life.

Take your bag back and stand in front of the carnivorous plants. Use your bag to freeze them and pass through before they thaw (image below in the center). You cannot kill them.

Continue to the right and go to the right of the spring to take the flower (image above on the right). The water given by this spring restores 3 hearts (you must stand just above it to successfully fill your bottle). Then go down (passing to the left of the river). To kill the small pigs/boars, freeze them with the bag and then shoot with the star. Walk along the trees on the right to obtain an extra heart. Before going left to face the giant pig, go back and refill your bottle after drinking it to recover all your life points.

The Boss

Before going left, don't forget to put the bag on the "Y" button. Go left zigzagging up and down to avoid his tomahawk and stand in front of him. Once well placed, simply freeze him with the bag and shoot with the star and repeat the 2 maneuvers until he dies.

The boss explodes and you have finished the 1st part. Here is the code: During this time, a fairy gets her reflection captured in a small box by goblins. The goal of the 2nd part is to get it back for her.
