Plot Summary
Based on the first Wizardry game “The Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord”, a group of characters enter a dungeon to confront the ultimate wizard to prevent him from reaching an unstoppable power. On their way they meet up with a few new friends who have their own battles to settle, but their paths lay together.
My Thoughts
The Wizardry anime is extremely loyal to the Wizardry game. If any of you are a Wizardry fan then you're in for a real treat. As a classic RPG fan, I immensely enjoyed this anime. While watching it I felt like I was playing Wizardry! (Even though I've never played it.) It has RPG-esk random battles and magic casting. The animation, however, looks dated so I wouldn't quite recommend this anime to everyone. If you're a fan of classic RPGs and 80s anime, I think you'll love it! Also, I recommend watching this YouTube review of the Wizardry game this anime is based on. For one of the first RPGs ever made, it was actually pretty advanced and complex!
