What is Wizard of Legend?

A pixel-art action roguelike and dungeon crawler where you move through procedurally generated levels, fight conjured enemies and council members, and build spell-and-relic loadouts for chained attacks. Each run enters the Kingdom of Lanova's annual Chaos Trials, whose successful contestants earn the title Wizard of Legend; local co-op lets two players attempt the trials together.

For you if...

+you enjoy difficult runs that reward practice and pattern learning
+you want couch co-op with complementary spell loadouts
+you like experimenting with elemental spells and relic combinations

Not for you if...

−you want a story-led game with developed characters
−you prefer forgiving combat over learning enemy patterns
−you dislike restarting in procedurally generated dungeons
