How it feels

A charming pixel-art side-scroller that mixes precise platforming and combat with light puzzle-solving as a wizard launches fireballs through varied fantasy environments.

What players say

Players describe a short, simple retro platformer with cute pixel art and easy-to-learn controls. It takes about three hours to beat and runs well on Steam Deck. Some find it too easy and the platforming a bit clunky, while others appreciate the generous checkpoints and hidden secrets in each level.
