Wizards

Four-player arena combat

Wizards is a PC arena game in the Warlords tradition, where four wizards try to outlast one another by deflecting a fast-moving ball. Your shield orbits your position in a tight arc, so you have to read the ball’s angle and commit to a deflection. Each return sends it back harder, and the game tracks which wizard last deflected it when it lands.

Spells and rallies

Five spells can disrupt the exchange: Fireball sends a burning projectile across the arena, Ice Bolt freezes a rival, and Pentacle changes the flow of play. Shield gives you half a second of protection, while Ball Duplication creates another incoming threat. A rally can turn from a contest of angles into a scramble as spells interrupt the ball’s path or leave a rival unable to move.
