Review: ‘The Wizards – Dark Times’ is a magic throwing, spell-casting adventure game. The good news is the spell casting side of things feels pretty good and you can get the spell you want most of the time which is a credit to the developers coding rather than the technology as we have seen in many games before. With loads of spells to cast and a good range of enemies to use them on this game certainly ticks a lot of good boxes and it looks great too which is another tick in the right direction. While some will find the basic, linear gameplay a little boring when compared to more RPG based adventures I enjoyed the faster pace and this game has the content amount to cover it. If you ask me this is well worth the money and a game us VR owners can be proud of.
