How it feels

A quiet, contemplative interactive novel where you guide a reluctant wizard through political and magical challenges using only text and your own imagination.

What players say

Players are split on The Last Wizard. Some enjoy the story and choice-driven gameplay, but many find it bland, stat-heavy, and frustrating because magic often fails and failure forces restarts with no save system. It is shorter and less detailed than the author's other work, though it shares a universe with The Lost Heir.
