User Reviews

Fans love the nostalgic Wizardry revival and its lightweight, portable feel, but the app is held back by repeated freezes, ad-related performance issues, and serious bugs (character creation, item identification, and saving). Localization is rough, with misspellings and fast combat text. A polished, ad-free version with better bug fixes and docs would greatly improve the experience.

Pros

Nostalgia and faithful homage to the classic Wizardry, appealing to long-time fans.
Simple, portable interface that plays without heavy graphics, making it easy to use on the go.
Appreciation for the effort to bring Wizardry to mobile and the overall concept appeals to fans.

Cons

Frequent freezes/crashes across menus and during gameplay that prevent playing.
Ad-supported model causing performance issues and overall frustration; many want an ad-free paid version.
Significant bugs that block progress: character creation can fail, and item/shop identification can crash the game and risk losing progress; saving/restoring also unstable.
Localization/readability issues: misspelled item/spell names, fast combat narration that’s hard to read, and lack of in-game documentation.
Occasional game quirks like characters disappearing or excessive teleporters further hinder navigation.

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.

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

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.
