Excellent game. Graphics are mediocre, but the playability is excellent. Two player co-operative is a blast. A friend and I played this for ages, we finally wrapped the game back around to the first dungeon.

Roklan Software had two fabulous titles---Wizard of Wor and Gorf. Both were among my favorite quarter-eaters, and these two transalations do not fail. Sound effects are identical to the arcade and add tremendously to the 'feel' of the orginal. I believe the maze in W of W is smaller than its big brother, but the game play is no less competitive. Lots of fun when played with a human teammate, but be careful you don't accidentally shoot him. He'll be ticked for killing his character, stomp out of the room, and then you'll have to kill all those baddies all by yourself. Serves you right!!!

As you probably know, Real Men (or Women, as the case may be) don't run from things with names like Inky and Clyde, unless it's a matter of life or death. Well now there is Wizard of Wor, an alternative which means no more humiliation at the hands of some yellow or red sucker. In Wizard of Wor, you can turn around and vaporize them. Wizard of Wor is the game that never really... [more]
