Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain
- It's a good idea to explore your surroundings off the main path. You may come across permanent upgrades. Or find a handy spell/weapon that may prove invaluable on the main quest.
- Heart of darkness (the consumable item to revive and restore health) isn't infinite to find. Best to keep an eye on your supply. Alternatively there is a place to gain more hearts locked somewhere obscurely. Theoretically gaining an infinite amount by sacrificing blood.
- The spell ‘repel’ is incredibly useful to remove some annoyances from nearly all attacks.
- Puzzles may require you to use a spell or transformation. If you’re stuck, you may have missed a vital spell to help you overcome some obstacles.
- If you see a bat portrait when you step on certain red sigils, try activating it to immediately head to your next destination.
- The game has cheats. So if you’re stuck in a pickle and need health/magic use the following button commands. If you’re on PC:
- Refill Health - Up - Right - Attack - Action - Up - Down - Right - Left
- Refill Magic - Right - Right - Attack - Action - Up - Down - Right - Left
- Preview Diary - Left - Right - Attack - Action - Up - Down - Right - Left
- 100% Health - attack, shift, shift, forward, attack, enter, enter
- The PS1 version has some terrible load times. I recommend the PC version with Verok's GL Wrapper & Path, which you can find here: https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Blood_Omen:_Legacy_of_Kain
