Be prepared...for the difference
Evidently, Japanamation bought the original Wizardry franchise. This is a bit like the first games (Wiz1, Wiz2) but they changed the setting and lore. It is now a anime fest. It has lost the original look and feel. If you accept this, the game is OK. As a retro-gamer, don't personally like it. Its a matter of taste.

Great game
Challenging as heck, with its little issues here and there. But from that comes a diamond in the rough. Its what you want from a Wizardry game, it is not Wizardry 8, but its still pretty solid! Check it out!

"Wizardry that we deserve"
It's complilation of worse from Wiz 6-7 and jrpg GUI, that unambigous and directly aimed at spending your time with unnecessary opening windows and menus. Control is only mouse+ keyboard. You can't use keyboard for attack or else, you have to click. Each time. Wiz 6 is far more superiour here. Sounds. While ambient is ok, but when you hit the wall instead of usual "ugh" sound you will hear some hentai-ahegao-tentacle-whatever moan from EACH member of the party. Im still wandering if this should mean as if they actually liked to bump to obstacles and closed doors, etc.. Combat, which is large part of the game - just crap. Because of controls, because of stupid arts, stupid broken mechanic. Just uninteresting. Saying this, I missed Wiz 6-7 when it comes out, but Im playing it these days with great pleasure, a true gem of it's time, and good game still. I would recommend to play this instead of subj. I hope I helped to save you time, so mine, wasted on this game, not toiled down completely.

Leveling penalizes your stats randomly
For rating I will compare it to the last Wizardry series game, Wizardry 8, a masterpiece of an RPG, since its named Wizardry. Con means its worse than Wizardry 8, Pro means its better. Con - no free movement - it was vastly before Wizardry 8 when movement was unlocked, more than 20 years ago > the current year is 2020, not 1990 or so because it feels like the game should have come out decades ago > Wizardry evolved over the years, this entry looks like it was made decades ago Con - less races - Wizardry 8 had 11 meaningful different races > while this game has only a few humanoid choices, not even half as many Con - less classes - Wizardry 8 had 15 meaningful differnt classes > while this game has only half as many Con - schoolgirl characters - Wizardry 8 had a lot of different voice options and you could always find the right one for your race - Wizardry 8 had a lot of unique portraits that felt like your character is an adventurer > while in this game female voices sounds like childs / girls, that sound a lot like they are ... E.g. - but not restricted to - when hit > and their portraits ALL look like schoolgirls Con - leveling is abstruse > +1 HP ... reloaded ... > +3 HP > +4 HP, LOST 1 STR + AGI stat point > +10 HP > +13 HP, LOST 1 VIT stat point > +6 HP > +3 HP, LOST 1 AGI stat Point > a joke, really a joke > I cannot remember any game where the character gets a permanent LOSS by leveling Conclusion: A barebone dungeon crawler that is neither anything remotely Wizardry or good in anything it tries for compared to prior titles of the series as well as every single other contender. What little motivation you might have because this game fails so much is gone after your characters leveled up and PERMANENTLY lost stat points. Imagine Baldurs Gate removed stat points at random. Noone would remember it anymore as anything more than a joke. Why play when you get penalized for playing. Cannot ever Recommend.

Great Wizardry game!
Nice graphics, similar to Elminage, I'm lovin it! The fruits are nice for creating your team. it is challenging at first but gets better with a few levels.
