The Story Behind Wolfchild
The plot revolves around biotechnology researcher Kal Morrow and his son Saul. When Kal is kidnapped by the evil Chimera organization, Saul uses one of his father's inventions to turn himself into a wolf-human hybrid (similar to a werewolf) that may be capable of defeating Chimera. It was later released for the SNES, Mega Drive/Genesis, Sega CD, Master System, and Game Gear.
Initially, the player character is Saul in his normal, human form. Only when enough energy has been collected does he turn into a wolf-human, giving him much better attack techniques. Wolfchild is a platform game originally released for the Amiga and the Atari ST by Core Design in 1992.

Why Players Still Load It Up
Gary Whitta of ACE magazine gave the Amiga version a score of 905 (out of a possible 1000), praising its animation, speed and responsiveness, and generally deeming it executed better than Switchblade 2. Electronic Gaming Monthly gave the SNES version a 5 out of 10, complimenting the graphics and sound effects, but found gameplay as dull and unappealing. The player must guide Saul through five levels, negotiating platforms and shooting various monsters, the result of Chimera experiments.
