It was an older game from late 80's or early 90's. RPG of a spellcaster genere. You had to combine your ingrediants to make your spells and increase the ingrediants to make stronger spells but like all experimentation things go wrong and you could die. However you are sent to deaths realm to collect ingrediants there and work yourself back to the living realm by defeating bad guys. I cant remember the name of the game but I remember the basic base ingrediants was Candles, Stones, ? , and the catalyst.
Powders was the ? also.

Discworld II

I don't remember dying (as such) in Discworld II, though that does sound akin to Pratchett's style of humour. I should probably replay the game, I have it set up to run in ScummVM. :P

it was just a guess

Spellcraft for SNES? That's what Google is telling me at least.

Yeah i think Spellcraft: Aspects of Valor is it but the snes version is way different the the dos version

Oh, hell, You're right, it is! Gotta admit, i've never heard of this game before, i just made a google search for the information given, and a SNES FAQ came up. Thanks for pointing that out!


Anyhow, here's a link to a video of the DOS Version.

Welcome

Wanna what what I like about 2012?

I never heard of this game and it looks pretty friggin' sweet for a SNES title.

But auction sites searching I do not

For I know this game is tucked away somewhere on my drive, right at this very moment, in my ZSNES folder.

."SmellCraft" by "AssWare."

It was canceled for Snes but was leaked on the internet

Crud...So I'm probably sitting on a half finished alpha?

http://www.unseen64.net/2010/04/18/spellcraft-snes-unreleased/ seems like an almost complete verison was leaked

Here's the DOS version (and before anyone goes ape shit - check the site's large banner at the top of the screen for their biggest sponsor. ).
