Life of a Wizard

I love this game. There are so many options that you can choose early in the game that affect your choices later on that it gives the game great replay value. There are a few suggestions I’d make (BEWARE OF SPOILERS BELOW). 1. I’d add more achievements, especially for more niche accomplishments (end game with maximum possible fame, end game with maximum possible peace/army power, win while only having friends/followers who are gnomes, etc…) 2. If the player fails at something because a given stat is too low (ie the collective rating of the party when they face the dragon), telling them what the required value is diminishes the replay value (it especially de-incentivizes options that give them a crystal ball). 3. When healing the headmaster of the academy, the option to use the player’s troll blood is visible regardless of the race of the player. 4. I don’t k ow if this was intentional, but the Diplomacy is super easy to max out as it gets increased even for choices that are only tangentially related to diplomacy.

Great game, good replay-ability. I don’t think it needs music at all, I would probably just mute it or ignore it. I mean you can literally just play your own, but no text based game Ive ever played has had music anyway. Just good story, good fantasy genre, and good fun

No money

The simple writing style makes it easy to understand and the stats are relatively easy to grasp. Also incorporates some nice curve balls where you sometimes just have to use logic instead of pure stat based decisions. Overall, the high replay ability and simple style of the story boded really well with me. If you’re someone looking for extravagant writing and “big words” I would not recommend this. However, if you’re looking for simplicity and a nice story with high replay ability, then this is one of the best.

It’s a cool game with interesting choices, though it’s not easy to maneuver. I wish there was a rewind button, because there were several times I had misclicked. The game doesn’t last very long, and visually it’s not very pleasing. I wish I had read more into the game before buying it. It also would help if there was music. It was soundless gameplay, and the end of it was the furthest from fun. Buy this if you don’t care about wasting your money for maybe half an hour of gameplay. Don’t buy this if you realize the same (or a better) effect could be achieved from finding a dungeons and dragons campaign to join.

Fun to play through a bunch of times to get the different achievements

This is one game I will never regret buying. I loved playing and discovering all the different out comes for hours and hours. The only thing it needs is sequels. MORE Fantasy games this epic and I will not hesitate to download.

I wasn't sure if I would like this game, but I wanted to check out the genre. I was not disappointed, and I was surprised at how much I liked it. I played through once and didn't complete all my goals; I don't want to spoil anything, but the achievements at the end give he idea that it's possible to have many different endings. I am definitely going to play through again and try to be evil, to see what happens.

The writing style is really bland and disappointing.

Necromancy as a playable game mechanic doesn't ever get a hint of spotlight, though thanks for at least including the option in part in this choice based game.
