Wizard's Oblation

I've only played the single player version of the game for just under an hour but I think I can give it a decent enough review. I'm going to recommend this only to people that will end up playing with friends because I believe thats where its really going to shine even with what I feel like it lacks. This is mostly a feedback review in hopes that the developed continues working on it because I believe it has a lot of potential.

Pros:
- The art style is superb. I truly enjoy it and it's the biggest reason I got it. I love the look of this game from top to bottom.
- The items you pick up are definitely fun and diverse. I didn't expect what the train would do, even though I should've guessed, but I laughed pretty hard when I used it.

Cons:
- No background music. I felt like I had a significant amount of downtime navigating the maps and just heard myself walking when some form of background music or sound effects would have made it a much more enjoyable experience.
- No compass. I felt like I had to look at the map the entire time and wasn't actually looking where I was going except for the first few minutes of playing the game. It would be nice to be able to navigate without having to constantly be staring at the map. I can also understand why there wouldn't be a compass but with how much of a maze each map is, there's no real way to feasibly remember the way to and from places without a significant amount of experience playing the maps.
- I know this is going to sound a little contradictory to my compass feedback but since I mentioned maps, it would be nice if the map could be potentially moved or made it so that I can manually bring it up to the center of the screen, it be a bit transparent so you can still see where you're going and navigate it that way. If that's not a direction they would want to go, I think at least making it so I can zoom in/out on the map a bit or have at least the player icon a bit brighter/bigger. It got a bit hard to keep track of it at times.

Right now the game feels quite boring to play by yourself but I can imagine it being a blast for a bit playing with friends. Hopefully this helps

It took a hot minute to figure out how things worked, but that ended up being half of the fun. The style is really fun, and the enemies and maps are all so fun to navigate and learn about. This game is genuinely such a gem, and super fun with friends. Be ready to experiment and figure stuff out for awhile, but its very worth sticking it out!

Played for about an hour, got the hang of the game. Current version doesn't have a lot of hand-holding, so you'll have to figure it out. I'm the kind of player that solos Lethal Company and REPO so I enjoy the grind, but would suggest the devs have an easier mode with increased vision radius in future builds or other accommodations for the less sweaty players.
Pros: I like the duo-tone art style and 2d feel to the game. I like it a whole lot
Cons: like other games of its genre, you'll need friends to play along with. Solos not recommended.

The core of the game:
Go in blind -> Get ganged up on by goblins and jumpscared by a job application -> Grab a spell and a light bulb -> Go back -> Return as the literal Doom Guy -> hit by my own spell -> Died.

Rating: I need a flashlight or that lightbulb spell / 10
