    Lilly & Sasha: Nexus of Souls Review

    By

    Be warned: If you have yet to play John Wizard's previous role-playing game, Lilly & Sasha: Curse of the Immortals, you'd do well to work your way through it before tackling Lilly & Sasha: Nexus of Souls. This sequel picks up right where its predecessor left off, and despite a quick recap of key scenes from the previous game, its story and characters are so intertwined with those of its forerunner that players who didn't play Curse of the Immortals will be left scratching their heads some of the time.

    Dawn’s Light 2 Review

    By

    Casual RPG-maker John Wizard has only been around for about a year, but it has already released a quartet of games. What's more, in Dawn's Light 2 the fledgling studio is confident enough to assume that players are at least familiar with its predecessor (expect plenty of references to characters, places, and events from the original game). However, while returning players may get a few more jokes, there are enough new gags and personalities that the game can still be enjoyed without having experienced its forebear. That's good news, since Dawn's Light 2 may well be John Wizard's best effort yet.

    Jack of All Worlds Review

    By

    John Wizard's latest RPG is a bit of a misfire. Jack of All Worlds sports the developers' trademark witty dialogue and strong production values, but it also has a peculiar, memory-based battle system, precious little in the way of character development, a hero we never really get to know, and an abrupt and unsatisfying ending.

    Lilly & Sasha: Curse of the Immortals Review

    By

    The most important element of any RPG is narrative. Players spend hours reading dialogue, and if it's filled with typos, written by someone noticeably uncomfortable with English, or just plain boring, the experience can quickly become unbearable. Happily, this isn't a problem for the wonderfully witty Lilly & Sasha: Curse of the Immortals, a new game from independent RPG shop John Wizard.

    Dawn’s Light Review

    By

    Role-playing games (RPGs) routinely clock in at 30 hours of gameplay or more, but bigger is not always better. Sometimes too much of that time is spent stumbling through maze-like dungeons, scrolling past overly long-winded dialogue, and being pummelled by endless random monster encounters. Refreshingly, Dawn's Light avoids these common pitfalls. The sprite-based RPG from John Wizard Games is a smart, well-balanced adventure that should prove engaging and creative enough to impress even the most jaded of RPG veterans.
