Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord is a full 3D remake of the first game in the legendary Wizardry series of RPGs.
The first party-based RPG video game ever released, Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord was a direct inspiration to series like Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest. Digital Eclipse's revival preserves the appeal of the classic, with many upgrades for modern role-playing game fans.
Dungeon Crawling, Deluxe
Craft your own party of adventurers and head into the labyrinth at the behest of the mad overlord Trebor, in search of the amulet stolen by the evil wizard Werdna. Battle groups of challenging enemies, avoid hidden traps, and make your way deeper into the dungeon as you prepare for the ultimate battle: Facing Werdna himself.
Commitment to Accuracy
Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord is built directly on top of the original 1981 game's code. Although it looks all new, underneath the hood is the authentic game. You can even view the original Apple II interface as you play.
Challenge Without Hassle
While the well-known difficulty of the enemies has not been altered, quality-of-life improvements have been added in every area. Party management, navigation, spellcasting, and combat have all been significantly enhanced.
A Legend Reborn
If you're just discovering the legendary Wizardry franchise, Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord is the perfect jumping-in point for new players. Series veterans will love the gorgeous new graphics and sound, and the streamlined interface.

A good throwback - if you're old-school!
For full disclosure, I returned the GOG version and re-purchased it for the Nintendo Switch since that's more portable. I suppsoe if you've got a Steam Deck or whatnot that's not as much of an issue. I never played the original game - I was negative 7 back then - but the old-school charm is lovely if you're willing to put in the time and learn to play the game on its own terms. I do wish the Apple }{ overlay was able to be customized some (it's so small! and it can vanish behind the torch!) but aside from that minor quibble, it's as pure of an old-school dungeon crawler as you can hope for.

Dark Souls of Dungeon Crawler
I think I have been liking this series just because its on the tough side. Yeah, the unfair crit happens from time to time but over all its more about strategy and party placement rather than just going in with 6 mages and blasting things to all get out .... ok well that's the end game but otherwise you'll need to adapt or you're gunna get stomped. Its more like playing DCC (dungeon crawl classic) than hero dnd.

My Childhood right here...
Nice playability update to my favorite old dungeon crawler. I'm an old guy. I like old games, especially turn-based dungeon crawler CRPGs. As such, this was the first game I ever obsessed over back in the 80's. Still love it. A classic.
