A Wizard's Lizard

About

A Wizard's Lizard is an action RPG that layers dungeon crawling with a cheeky twist. You play as a wizard or a cursed lizard, hacking through procedurally generated levels teeming with monsters, treasure, and townsfolk in need. Each death doesn't reset progress, it unlocks the Realm of the Dead, letting you revisit areas as a spectral version of your character to uncover hidden loot and fight tougher enemies. The loop of dying, respawning, and strategically exploring both living and dead spaces keeps runs feeling fresh. The game’s procedural design ensures no two adventures line up the same, with randomized layouts and item placements encouraging repeated playthroughs. Its blend of pixel art and goofy tone contrasts with the punishing difficulty, though player forums note a loyal fanbase drawn to its roguelike depth. While not a chart-topper, it carved a niche among indie RPG fans for its inventive use of death as a gameplay tool rather than a setback.

Storyline

A Wizard's Lizard is an ever-changing medieval fantasy hack 'n slash game from independent game developers, Lost Decade Games. Conquer the forces of Death in A Wizard’s Lizard, an action RPG for Windows, Mac and Linux. Explore ever-changing dungeons, filled with valuable treasure and powerful items, while battling back the hordes of evil. Rescue townsfolk to improve your town and aid your next trek into the dungeon. You'll die constantly, and painfully in the heat of battle. However you'll want to use Death as a mechanism for complete and full exploration of each unique dungeon as your character enters the Realm of the Dead. Herein, you'll find additional loot and continue your quest as you fight stronger monsters, quite a few of which were killed by your living counterpart. Look for Townfolk, Chests, exotic Weapons and glorious Treasure, both as alive or dead, and fight Monsters for glory as a wizard or a lizard.
