Crazy difficult and creepy maze game with various monsters guaranteed to make your life hell: Burwors (blue monsters), Garwors (yellow monsters), Thorwors (red monsters), Worluks (winged monsters that appear once after all enemies are destroyed and basically just looks for an exit), and the titular Wizard (sometimes appears after the Worluk and teleports around the maze firing bolts). All monsters bit the Worluk can shoot, and the Garwors and Thorwors are invisible unless close-- use the radar screen to find their location in the maze. I like that you can choose to play with a friend and have either 3 or 7 lives apiece-- if you do play this way, fight back to back since the enemies love to sneak up on you. Or you can let the cpu control the other player and keep to one side of the screen, perhaps drawing enemies away from you. Also know that for each maze there will be spots the monsters can't enter in a certain direction. These tips might help you in this incredibly tough game, made more daunting by the creepy sound samples (very similar to the ones in GORF).
