What players say
Players are split on The Useless Wizard. Some say it is an addictive roguelike with chaotic, fun runs, while others claim it is made of AI assets, boring, and plays like an old browser game. Complaints include frame drops in late game, an unskippable death screen, and a few imbalanced characters, but some find it addictive and enjoyable despite a slow start.
