## Review summary

Wizard is praised for its faithful Wizard feel, customization, and solid solo play in a lightweight app. However, users repeatedly lament the lack of true online multiplayer, persistent lag and stability problems, AI fairness concerns, and occasional round glitches. An aging UI on some devices also surfaces. It shines for local/AI play but needs better online capability, reliability, and fair AI behavior to satisfy a broader audience.

### Pros

- Feels like the real Wizard game with convincing AI and authentic gameplay.
- Highly customizable with house rules and scoring, plus progress auto-save.
- Easy to learn and great for quick, casual play sessions.
- Visually appealing card graphics that mimic a physical game.
- Solid solo/AI play and efficient, lightweight app.

### Cons

- Online multiplayer is limited to local Wi-Fi; remote cross-network play is unavailable or unreliable.
- Frequent lag, slow performance, and occasional freezes, especially after updates.
- Perceived unfair AI behavior (bots seeming to know your hand) and inconsistent round rules.
- Round-logic glitches and occasional bugs causing inaccurate rounds.
- Outdated UI/look on older devices and performance issues.
