I played and won the original Apple II Wizardry back when it was first released (I'm an old geezer). This game scratches that itch. I wasn't sure if I would still enjoy playing what is obviously a much simplier RPG than is currently available. But that simplicity is part of the charm, no fancy graphics or other glitz, just challenging gameplay. I'm playing on my Legion Go S handheld PC. I wasn't sure how a text heavy game would play, it mostly works fine. My only criticism is that the interface isn't great. Even something as simple as how to create your own characters isn't obvious. With my handheld there are a few odd interface issues, such as inspecting things - sometimes when you want to inspect something in the maze the game will only allow you to inspect a party member. But there are ways around everything, these are just minor issues that you will soon not notice After completing the tutorial campaign (which is a full scenario of 12 levels) plus the Travelers Property scenario, I still enjoy the game. However, I have some concerns about the quality of the scenarios. The tutorial scenario is very good, especially considering it is a tutorial. It intorduces a wide variety of map types. I chose Travelers Property because I read it was considered the best of the Five Ordeals. If this is true, I won't bother with the other four, because it isn't very good. The levels are boring and the difficulty balancing is very poor. There is essentially no ending for the scenario. I'm now trying half-hearted RPG, which I believe is user created. Initally this scenario seemed promising, but unfortunately I can't make much progress on it. I completed the first two floors but I'm stuck on the third floor. Normally this wouldn't be an issue but because not many people are playing Five Ordeals, and even fewer people play each user created scenario, if you get stuck you are probably out of luck. I still recommend the game but I find it disapointing that the scenario quality isn't great.

Excellent work! Respected game developer, could you please address the input delay and operational stuttering issues in the Nintendo Switch version? I absolutely adore this game, but the current operational fluidity leaves me feeling somewhat frustrated.

Probably the best Wizardry game you can buy on Steam right now. Definitely get the DLC. The price of admission is high, but it will keep you going for a long time.

Pretty great dungeon crawler, but probably best to wait for a sale. Would be nice if there was a built in scenario editor or some sort of procedural generated dungeon, but its a niche market and small team so not a shock that it isn't there. Would also be nice if there was some better/more accessible modding tools (add classes, races, items, etc), but again not a shock it isn't available in particular since the tools that DO currently exist are in Japanese with no English toolsets available.

28 hours into this game and I just now beat the tutorial dungeon. Holy hell we're in for a treat.
