Rift Wizard is a master class in doing one thing and hitting it out of the park. There are an astonishing number of builds that are viable, and it's very engaging to plan your build and experiment. Can your spell loadout handle large groups as well as HP titans? What about ghosts? How about heavy-hitting enemies at long range? You gotta know what you can and can't fight, and plan your path accordingly. This is a game that rewards experience and knowledge, and I think that's wonderful. The more I played the more engaged I was, and that's very rare for a game made by one dude. Also consider getting Rift Wizard 2, which is more about adapting to what gifts are available, compared to the first which has less random elements. Both are great, just slightly different flavors.

382 hours in, I have just won my first game. I don't know what madness has taken me to continue in the face of so much failure. I am bad at this game. I do not like this game, but I must be in love with it to take so much abuse and persevere. I recommend it wholeheartedly. I still haven't even tried using half the spells, and 90% of the skills. If the trailer looks fun, try it. It would be well worth the full price but I think I got it on sale. Or maybe just get the 2nd one? It looks like a direct upgrade.

One screen levels with a ton of Spells and Skills. The bestiary is rich and full of surprises. The game provides all the information required to make decisions. A very good game imho.

This game frustratingly addictive. I hate it's inconsistent rules so much and can't stop playing. I die to the dumbest thing 50% of the time that makes absolutely no sense. like calculating out damage and resistances and ranges before engaging just for the enemy to completely break the rules and kill me in on hit with seeming no explanation of how that makes sense. It's so frustrating and so fun at the same time. Some builds you can go goofy with it. Someone said to me "there's no RNG in this game." No... Straight lie. There is so much RNG it's hard to articulate. Some times you may want to hold onto points to buy skills in the future for specific enemies and sometimes you will be cashing out points as fast as possible to scale damage sooner or use less resources. When it rains it pours. Fuck this game. I love it.
