Available now on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One. Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord is a full 3D...
Depends on the person. It’s very “old school” in it’s gameplay, and very hard and punishing, grindy, has perma-death, etc.
I’d think most modern gamers would hate it, but I personally like wizardry to games (though it helps that I’m old enough to have played older versions). If you like old school d&d, it’s very much in the same vein. The remake linked here is pretty good, I already own it from early access.
Wizardry was ground breaking in 1981. I’m not sure how well it has aged. I bet a lot of modern gamers would enjoy a youtube video essay about it more than actually playing it.
Was this a good series?
