Hexx: Heresy of the Wizard

About

Hexx: Heresy of the Wizard tasks you with gathering four talismans that hold the imprisoned souls of ancient gods. You lead a pre-built team of four adventurers, each from a pool of 16, across dungeons to stop a wizard’s plan. Classes include warriors, wizards, rangers, and assassins, with spells split into earth, chaos, dragon, and night magic. Exploration and combat share the same screen, with enemies attacking in real-time as you move. The game’s real-time combat in a first-person RPG format sets it apart, offering a tense mix of strategy and reflexes. Its 32 spells across four disciplines add depth to encounters, though the DOS-era visuals and mechanics may feel dated. Released in 1994, it remains a niche pick for players seeking old-school party-based action with a mythic twist.
