Thats all i can see of this game

HypnoticOwl responds:

I assume, you've tried reloading the page and it didn't work. So:
Are you using some kind of script blocking plugin like noscript?
Also which kind of browser are you using? Is it up-to-date?

It would be awesome, if you could help us find the problem. :)

EDIT: If you were using IE, try it again it should be fixed now!

Nice game

Awesome game, but needs a boss or something. A bit anti-climatic with the ending. I still had most of my skill points saved at that point. I didn't actually read the story until the end, and then I wished I had read the whole story. New game+ would be good too.

Also is there a second magic missile type book? I must have missed it, otherwise I think I got everything.

FIREBALL! FIREBALL! FIREBALL! FIREBALL!

HypnoticOwl responds:

The demon is the boss fight, but you're right it's not staged very climatic. i did try my best with the appearance of the thief, summoning the demon, but yeah, not the strongest point of the game.

There is a second spell in that category, magic nova, but it's not achievable in the game. You haven't missed a book ;)

Needs a tutorial. The game is unplayable without one, as there seems to be no way to get through the first door.

I also had no idea what any controls were until I randomly started pressing keys and 'h' brought up the controls menu.

HypnoticOwl responds:

It has a tutorial. You should see the tutorial hints at the bottom right. Except if you start in Master difficulty. But really, if you do that you should know what you're doing :)
They game can be played completely using just the mouse, the keyboard controls are just complementary, that's why they are not listed anywhere. It would be much appreciated if you could take another look at the game and reconsider your rating. Thanks! :)

The Wizard is a unique and charming dungeon crawler with a very special magic system. At first it might look simple, but later in the game you have to think which of your many spells are the most useful. The spells themself and what they do is pretty diversified and it's amazing how many options you've got with this simple control/interface. And there is not only one possible solution to beat the game. I love that.

I'd like to see more games of its kind. In the game I've seen statues of a rogue and a knight, and it would be quite funny if you could play other character classes, two - with their very own background story. So much potential! And it's worth 5 stars already.
