Wizdom

Wizdom is an action-oriented RPG about exploring dungeons and defeating the revived demon lord Wizdom. Using his magical power, Wizdom creates destructive dungeons whose shapes change whenever adventurers enter, then hides in the abyss while waiting for them. You explore a controlled world of towns, fields and dungeons in search of him.

The world and dungeons

The game draws on the atmosphere of classic role-playing games such as Wizrdry and Rogue, while also including some JRPG elements. Scattered towns serve as bases where you can hire and train companions. The world also contains plains, wilderness and other field maps, where you may discover new towns and dungeons.

Fixed normal dungeons are placed in the field. They have a time limit, but you can leave and return as often as you like. Other dungeons are generated automatically: each has one floor, and its layout changes every time you enter, changing the approach needed to explore it. The game also includes fixed maps and field maps alongside its automatically generated 3D dungeons.

Explore and fight

You explore dungeons, towns and the surrounding fields, with relatively little action required. The game combines simple play with more specialized systems, including some dice-roll elements. HP and MP are represented by a single bar.

Menus and selections use a real-time system, so the game continues while you make choices. There is no death: when HP reaches zero, a character is incapacitated. If your HP reaches zero, the game ends even if other party members remain.

Hire companions

Companions can join your party and act automatically to help you or the group. Mercenaries require a high initial hiring cost, but become permanent party members; they gain experience and grow just as the player does. You can hire and train companions, with only the initial expense required.
