This was definitely a very nice thing at that time, the completely different versions of title. And this one has nothing to do with the movie, but it's a good rpg.
The game reminds you from Zelda, but the plot, spells, exploration, enemies and everything else are very unique. It's no fair called it copie only for using a warrior (he's a wizard, actually) who travels the world. But being compared to Zelda is not a bad thing, right?
Generally I don't like to use spells in games (maybe is my melee blood that does not leave xD), but in this game there are some cool ones like turning into a bubble (which according to the game is a monster) and no enemy will appear on the map, it's perfect to rush some parts!
And the most annoying enemy prize goes to these skulls, that does not take damage at all! You have to wait the very right moment that the shield changes its positions and attack! Is just like about 0.0000001 seconds.
The game requires to upgrade the character at least level 13! And surely the best place for makes that, is in this tower here. The enemies that respawn on it always multiply themselves when defeated (unless if you kills them too quickly), besides they don't attack that much.
The reason to raise until this level is for save this old man, who's probably Willow's master! If you don't reach this level he will become another animal and will not give you the holy staff to destroy the Final Boss.
To kill this Grammy in level 13, you can't miss any magic, otherwise you will be without mana and die! I think it's best to grind up to level 15 or else, for you not to get mad on this part! After that, another fight with her but now she takes damage with normal attacks.
The ending is nothing so amazing (that classic where the world was saved, thanks to you) and that's it! I really liked this one! It should be better known in the community.
