Sign a contract in blood! Travel throughout the planes of existence slaying or befriending powerful doomlords in this wizard simulator inspired by the FMV games and dungeon crawlers of the early 90's. Learn powerful spells to solve puzzles and combat the dark forces amassing against you.
Pretty good game. Short; only 5-10 hours long, and most of that is from exploring to make sure I didn't miss anything. Some glitches here and there, did have to quit out once because I casted mage armor and it prevented me from interacting with anything. Perhaps the perfect use case for the steam deck/steam controller: use the left stick to move around,...
Unfortunately I have to give a negative review for the fact I was able to softlock myself several times. Well, really twice and one of those times I was able to get out by going back to the menu. However a third time was possible just by playing the game and failing to finish a task.
If you go over a certain lava covered area and have no healing items...
Fun AF!
'90s feeling dungeon crawler, great FMV sequences/characters, retro yet modern keyboard/mouse first-person controls with zero retro jank, and just really cool all around. When you feel lost or potentially confused, just keep exploring and trying things - you'll likely discover what you need.
Side note/help: for those having issues with the mouse...
Very charming. I did not think I would like it as much as I did. FMV characters, cheesy voice acting, very outdated control scheme, less pixels then I've ever seen in a PC game and 25 FPS somehow come together to form an experience that made me nostalgic for an era I haven't even part of.
Despite the strange controls it was surprisingly easy to adapt....
