Thac0(To hit a armor class of 0), vast maze like dungeons, deadly traps, deep charecter and party customization, level and stat drains, possible permadeath, large mobs of monsters, anti magic zones, zones of darkness, and all that. If those words start making your mouth water or makes you start thinking back to the old school Wizardry games and fond memories of late nights being glued to the warm glow of a computer screen with a caffinated soda in one hand and a pile of graph paper in the other savouring the fustrastion and the joys of trying to solve a vast deadly monster filled maze. Then this game is for you. This game is a Wizardry clone and one that isn't afraid to really hold anything back but rather embraces the old school nature of those games. Monsters that can drain your stats or levels, it's got that. Possible one hit deaths it's got that. Vast maze like dungeons made to get you lost? oh yeah it's got that and in spades over 94 floors to explore spread out over 16 dungeons, varied monsters it's got that too, it's even has for better or worse the old school Wizardry 1-5 level up system you know the one where you have to rest at a inn and your stats can not only increase but decrease every level up but it is balanced out, characters that can age yup, if it was a part of the old Wizardy rule system it's probably in this game. Now this game isn't for everyone, if you are the easily fustrated type this game will be a major turn off as this game is unapologetically hard and is not only emulates old school Wizardry games in the rules but also in the games style of graphics which take a cue from the japan only PS1 remakes of Wizardry's 1-5 which used 3d graphics for the dungeons and static hi-res portraits for the monsters and the town though the town is still a menu. But if that doesn't bother you and your looking for something that captures the old school Wizardry era dungeon crawler then this is for you.
