About

New Age of Llylgamyn is the second set of Wizardry remakes for the Playstation (Llylgamyn Saga was the first and encompassed the original trilogy). It consists of the classic and arrange versions of the notoriously hard Wizardry IV: The Return of Werdna as well as a remake of Wizardry V: Heart of Maelstrom. Sporting improved visuals, new orchestral soundtrack, auto-mapping, quick-saving and a nifty feature which allows the player to switch back to the wireframe graphics and 8-bit sprites, it is arguably the best way to enjoy these classic dungeon crawlers.
