初代Wiz

基本的にはよくできているけど、操作性がかなり悪いかな。ゲーム自体は面白いです。
8F以外の全マップは塗りつぶしたものの、8Fは未踏破エリアがかなりあるので、なんとか攻略してから後続の作品で遊びたい。

Buggy

I couldn’t even create a character. It would pull up the keyboard to name the character but just as quickly the keyboard disappeared and it backed out to the Training Grounds menu.

Froze

Freezes up. Used to play this all the time on my iPhone X, still use the same phone but game freezes now.

Froze

Freezes up after tapping a few menu options on iPhone 14.

懐かしい感じは良いのに残念

宝箱からad広告トラップが出ると画面が真っ暗になり何も出来なくなる。
オートセーブが無いので、そうなるとお手上げです。

Freezing

Game can freeze once in a while and makes the game unplayable. Sad.

Thanks

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.

Would pay for it so no ads

Garbage with ads. I would pay for an ad free version. Also freezes because of the lame ads. I’d give zero stars

無料でここまで!?

かなり古いタイプのRPG。

良い点としては、何よりボリュームたっぷりなのに無料で遊べることです。

悪い点は、連続タップの判定が緩過ぎて誤操作しやすいことです。1回タップのつもりが2回タップと判定されることが多く、ここぞという所で誤操作で罠に引っかかりパーティー壊滅…なんてことがよくあります。

Buggy and no documentation

The game crashes when identifying items in Boltacs. If you have not saved before doing so you lose all progress. The sage class gets buggy when identifying. If you fail identifying something you can’t identify anymore. No documentation. Stay away from this one.

Freezes

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.

Aweful

This is one buggy program. No matter what I select from any menu the game freezes up. From character creation to settings. What good is a game you can’t play?

A Tease … Would have liked to play

I loved Wizardry and this app made my heart leap for a moment. But it locks right up and I can’t create a character so I can’t play it. Disappointing and moving on.

Very good clone with some problems

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.

Good game, needs some crucial improvements

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.

Great Wizardry clone

This is a remake of the first wizardry game. Simple interface and no graphics but it’s nice to have wizardry on the go. Thank you!

ニヤニヤポイント沢山♪

ファミコン版からのフリークですが、隣り合わせの灰と青春とか、小さな有名人とか(笑)

城への階段が北西にあったのが若干戸惑いました。

攻略サイトがあるか不明ですが、昔ながらに自分でマップ作りながらボチボチ進めてます(^-^)

初スマホでサクサク快適です。
