Wiz

About

Wiz is a side-scrolling action game where you play a wizard battling through three distinct realms. Use eight different magical attacks to clear paths through hordes of enemies in the Depths, Land Realm, and Sky Realm. The challenge increases as you progress, with tougher monsters and tighter platforming sections. The game ends with a showdown against a dragon guarding the final realm. The game stands out for its variety of enemy types and escalating difficulty. While not widely discussed in modern circles, its 1985 release date makes it notable as one of the earlier arcade wizard action titles. The magic system allows for some strategic variety, and the three-tiered progression keeps the experience from feeling repetitive.
