Wow. I played Wizardry 1 as an 8 year-old the year it came out. Loved it. This is a very good replica but it’s flawed in a few ways: spell names are arbitrary (“silence” makes sense but “vajra” doesn’t). Without documentation, it’s hard to learn what each spell does. Items are often misspelled (“ring of thunger” is related to thunder” and I’m not sure what “blin” or “blain” refer to… blind?), saving is simple but restoring is VERY confusing. Sometimes it works, usually it doesn’t. Occassionally characters just disappear from the training grounds. It doesn’t happen often, though. The levels aren’t exactly like the original, which is okay. But there are way too many teleporters on several levels. It makes it a little silly to try to walk around. And I could be wrong but it seems like the dungeon map levels go 1,2,3,4,8,9…? Anyway, I’m enjoying it and using Murphy’s Ghost way too often. Oh and there’s a Valkyrie class which must have snuck in from Wizardry 5 or something. As far as I can tell it’s just a better Lord (amazing fighter, good priest). You can have parties with mixed alignments (good, neutral and evil) so as far as I can tell, alignment doesn’t matter too much except for switching classes later. If you switch classes from a spell-caster, your spell points will change to all 3’s. Can’t remember if that happened in the original game.

I love the Wizardry remake and feel. It’s not a complete replica but close. I would love to see monster graphics and treasure and chest graphics like the original but it’s not crucial.What is crucial is the major bug when you identify items at the shop and the game closes. Definitely save your game before doing this or all your achievements since the last save will be lost! Also the combat mis spellings are very annoying. Names like dwalfs, alps, balon armors, and many misspelled or just made up names take away from the game since there are no graphics of any of them to give a clue of what things are supposed to be. As a game designer myself and old school Wizardry fan, I appreciate the work it took to bring this game to life. I am giving it 3 stars for that. If there was no major bug at the shop for identifying items and better English translation and grammar, I will give this game 5 stars.

Really hopeful about this. Downloaded and reinstalled twice, freezes when I click on ok to do anything at all. Happened on iPhone 11 and 13 ....Having seen something similar, I believe it is due to your advertising mechanism.

I played the original in the early 1980’s on my family’s Apple II+. It took me forever to complete the first game- proving grounds of the mad overlord. When I finally did it was very satisfying. My father, doing a nice thing, got me the next installment ‘knight of diamonds’ for Christmas. Wow, great I thought! It allowed/required you to play the first game to port the characters that survived the first game to play the second game. Sounds cool, but I lost interest in the second game shortly after starting it. I had become burned out on rpg’s as a teenager. Luckily, back then, just about everyone still played sports in real life. And I would eventually return to Wizardry and other rpg’s. Your game is a nice trip down memory lane for me. Thank you very much for making this game.
