I've never even heard of this Wizardry game yet bring them all on for us computer folk.

There is no way that's good. I'm comfortable making that assumption, haha.

This looks like a weaker entry even by Japanese Wizardry standards

When are we going to get a remaster of Wiz 2&3!!! I would think Wiz 2 would be very easy considering it uses the exact same engine as Wiz 1!

Wizardry 2 being the first Expansion Pack ever made because it required Wizardry 1 at first as a shameless marketing stunt, but Wikipedia editors removed my entry because it doesn't actually say on the box specifically it's an Expansion Pack but a game. Semantics.
It shouldn't be difficult for this group in that it was smaller and not nearly as complex as the first Wizardry game. I believe Knight of Diamonds was Robert Woodhead's first project until he met Andrew Greenberg and ran the playtesting team on the much more sophisticated, Wizardry, after their Plato source code was deleted by the Oubliette team.

I believe it's only a matter of time before platforms see the rest of these Wizardry masterpieces, at least the classic ones. There's a reason they're so good!

I’ve never heard of this one, but I’m always up for more Wizardry. Hope it lives up to the classics, though.

Japan never seems to get tired of cranking out crappy Wizardry clones.
