Apogee Entertainment And Emberheart Games present with Wizardry A retro FPS game coming to Steam Early Access on November 15, 2023. Inspired by classics like Hexen and Doom, the game offers a unique blend of past and present. As one of those who got to play the preview before the official announcement, I would like to share my experience and impressions in this review.
The Wizordum demo is now free to play on Steam.
Magical weapons and fast-paced gameplay
Wizordum’s gameplay is intense and fast. You take on the role of one of the last wizards to fight against the forces of chaos caused by the destruction of Terabrum’s ancient seal. The arsenal of weapons is particularly interesting: you can use the ice staff to cast ice spells, while the fire ring lets you shoot fireballs. Additionally, there are magic orbs that act like grenades. But be careful because they can also harm you. The game also offers four different levels of difficulty, making it appealing to both new and experienced players. This customizability will help the game appeal to a wider audience.
