- The game offers unique classes like Druid, Highlander, and Wizard, adding a nice twist to the traditional Wizardry formula.
- The art and graphics are superb, enhancing the nostalgic feel of the game while maintaining a modern touch.
- It's a well-crafted turn-based dungeon crawler that provides a challenging experience, reminiscent of classic Wizardry games.
- Players can lose attributes upon leveling up, which is a frustrating mechanic that detracts from the overall experience.
- The lack of clear item descriptions and the presence of cursed items with no disposal options can lead to confusion and frustration.

Gameplay is criticized for its outdated mechanics, particularly the trial-and-error approach required to identify chest traps, which can detract from the overall experience. Players must rely on their character classes to handle different types of traps, but the lack of clear guidance can be frustrating, especially for newcomers to this old-school RPG style. Overall, the gameplay is seen as a niche experience that may not appeal to everyone.
“Chest traps are split up between mechanical and magical.”
“Thief/ninja are good for the mechanical ones, while mage/bishop/wizard are good for the magical ones.”
“If you have not played a game like this before, I would read up on the gameplay or watch reviews, as this is as old school RPG as you can get and is a niche product.”
“There are terrible mechanics in the early Wizardry games that should not have been transposed to this.”
“What an absolutely terrible mechanic that to me ruins the game.”
“However, it's entirely up to the player to determine which ones are mechanical and which are magical, and it was usually trial and error for me.”
