Folly Of The Wizards

Refunded. I was drawn in by the visual style. This is the highlight of the game. The character and enemy artwork is nice and the spell effects are well done. Folly of the Wizards is like a side scrolling Binding of Isaac, but I don't feel like it brings the same quality. The opening cinematic has rhyming dialogue that is so bad. Like it was written by a kid in grade school bad. This was my first clue. The sound effects are utterly awful. They remind me of low quality flash games of yore. When you get a new item it is SO LOUD for no reason. The shooting sound is a really cheap SFX that you will be hearing constantly. Obstacles are hard to see. There's a faint red aura around them, but otherwise they blend into the background. Each room is really basic and boring. Combat feels annoying because you're constantly maneuvering around platforms that block your shots. Numerous times I got stuck in a room and couldn't figure out why I couldn't leave. The game wanted me to talk to the NPC in the room without telling me I had to. At least I presume that's what they wanted, because after talking to the NPC I could finally exit. The real nail in the coffin for me was I kept getting upgrades, but they did that cryptic Binding of Isaac crap where they don't tell you what it actually does. After getting a couple of upgrades and having no idea what they did, I turned the game off and decided to refund. I never felt like my character was improving or changing much. The game could also really use a teleport system like Enter the Gungeon. The map is very similar to Binding of Isaac where you have to manually backtrack to rooms. For some reason I don't mind it that much in BoI, but in this game it felt annoying to navigate. Something about having to platform to the specific door you need feels more tedious. I feel like there might be something here, but the asking price of $30 is way too steep. Please take my review with a grain of salt. I did not play enough to give a full review, but I did not want to after seeing the quality of the game compared to the price.

⭐ “A Fever Dream of Wizards, Cats, and Fat Drunk EDM Unicorns” Folly of the Wizards feels like if Hollow Knight went to a rave and learned black magic. Every run throws you into a gorgeous, dungeon that shifts and mutates each time. You’ll meet a vampire witch named Verana who’s somehow both terrifying and charming, a Soul King named Blarn who talks like he owns the afterlife (he might), and my personal favorite — Larn, the adorable cat shopkeeper He may Ask me "What Are You Buying?" every time I enter his Shop at least in my Mind. The spellcasting starts simple, but by your third or fourth run you’re chaining chaos like a magical psychopath, and it’s glorious. The combat’s fast, floaty, and just the right amount of reckless. One moment you’re tactically dodging through monsters — the next, you’re laughing because a fat Drunk EDM unicorn just body-slammed you into next week. The art style? Stunning. Think Hollow Knight meets Saturday morning fever dream — detailed but playful, dark but somehow cozy. If you like roguelikes that don’t take themselves too seriously but still reward good instincts, this game’s worth every minute. It’s fun, weird, beautiful, and totally self-aware. Come for the magic, stay for the cat. 🧙‍♂️🐈‍⬛✨ Wesception Approved. TLDR Great Roguelike, Fat Drunk EDM unicorns, Verana Wants to suck you Dry, If you Die, Its Probably YOUR FAULT.

Liking it so far! Feels like a cross-up between Binding Of Isaac's roguelike-ness and Hollow Knight's combat

What else can be said, it's MAGICAL! Enjoy [url=https://youtu.be/wMXuadJI02g] First Look [/url] [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/28820007] Recommendations [/url] [url=https://www.youtube.com/@kreatorb] YouTube [/url] [url=https://www.tiktok.com/@iplaykreatorb] TikTok [/url]

我喜欢的横版肉鸽玩法，而且画风也非常惊艳

I love the whimsical characters, whimsical items and the clean art style, it's the definitely the strongest point for me. The narrated intro when the game starts is a really nice touch, too. I don't have much experience with roguelikes, so I'm still getting my bearings even 7h in, making more conscious choices on each run, but I'm definitely having fun exploring the affinity system, the different relics, biomes and bosses. I haven't experimented much with the spell books yet, I haven't held them for long, but I'll get there.

Challenging, beautiful and fun, if you don't mind to start over a few times. Every run felt a new experience if you take on different ways, spells and items. The celestial ambience and the cute art give the game a great and enjoyable visual. It got me hooked and fighting over and over to find new scenarios.

Si les gusta los juegos como Hollow Knight, Silksong este le puede interesar. Mi review: https://youtu.be/l9ITih8JV6g

It's unforgiving tbh. I played 6 hours, almost got to the last stage and still died. The variety of attacks or spells feels weak, the movement and animation is wonky... and I didn't feel the replay value worth it. I would say the ART STYLE is the only great thing about the game. I am a fan of wizards and magic but this was a letdown :(
