What it is
Wizardry: Labyrinth of Lost Souls is a single-player role-playing adventure from Acquire, released in 2009. It centers on assembling a six-member party and exploring dangerous dungeons near a central town. Players choose each character’s class, race, gender, and alignment, with eight classes and five races available. Classes can be changed during an adventure, or characters can develop their starting class to gain skills that benefit the party. Dungeons pit the group against more than 100 distinctive monsters, so expeditions call for careful planning and sometimes retreat. Between trips, players can talk with locals, take quests, visit the temple, and shop for equipment. The game is listed for PlayStation 3 and Windows, with Steam features including achievements, trading cards, Steam Cloud, family sharing, and partial controller support. Its store description presents a modernized take on the classic dungeon-crawler formula, with updated visuals and sound.
