Wizardry: The Five Ordeals

Wizardry: The Five Ordeals has returned!

The original dungeon crawler, Wizardry, has seen a number of transformations in its lifetime. Greatly modernized in its 6th iteration, the 7th and 8th titles saw a shift to 3D dungeon crawling and an innovative combat system beloved by players. This was followed by Wizardry Gaiden, a highly acclaimed spin-off which ultimately became a series in its own right.

Game ships with default scenario "The Price of Deception", In addition to the 5 main scenario quests, "Traveler's Property", "The Children of King Selene", "The Devoid of Apotheosis", "The Pickled Man of Galvan", "The Wheels of Flame", over 100 user generated adventures await you!

A classic hardcore RPG
heavily influenced
by TRPGs awaits!

Your adventure shall begin at a training camp on the outskirts of town. Create your own characters to make your adventure all your own. Enjoy thrilling and merciless combat in a battle system adapted from classic table-top RPGs. Whether retracing your steps through the labyrinths with hand-drawn maps, or bearing witness to the consequences of your choices on your band of heroes, your adventures will transcend the goals given to you to become tales of legend.

QoL Enhanced from 2006.

The game is based on old-fashioned RPG mechanics, but with many QoL improvements for a modern game. Many useful features have been added, including the ability to create user custom portraits. Custom portraits will go a long way in creating an adventure of your own liking.

Easy access to the soundtrack via Steam.

To commemorate the Steam release of Wizardry: The Five Ordeals, the soundtrack, "Wizardry: Prisoners of the Battles & The Five Ordeals Audio Collection" has been rereleased digitally.

The original CD release has become increasingly rare and often commands high prices at retail. This rerelease features all tracks from composers Kenichi Koyano, Mitsuhiro Kaneda, Masaharu Iwata, & Hitoshi Sakimoto, carefully re-mastered by Basiscape, to enrich your experience and fill your adventures with excitement.

Unlimited adventures with the scenario editor

A web service-style scenario editor allows you to add your own adventures into user scenarios.

IID and 59 Studio never permit the importation of past “Wizardry” into “Wizardry: The Five Ordeals”.
In the event that a significant reproduction of a past “Wizardry” work is found, the right of access to the editor of the user in question will be permanently suspended without notice. No redress will be provided in this case.
If we determine that a significant portion of the community has engaged in such behavior, we may terminate the English editor without prior notice, and may also temporarily or permanently suspend the scenario editor service itself.
This policy is a bit aggressive in this day and age, but it is an inevitable limitation of the relationship between the respective Wizardry rights holders. Please understand.
