Wizardry 8 PC CD-ROM Sirtech Mini Box w Manual

Description: In Wizardry 8, the player has the opportunity to form a party of six adventurers at the beginning of the game. Each race and class possesses a combination of strengths and weaknesses. The design of the various races and classes aims to maintain balance, enabling a wide range of playable party compositions. Characters have the ability to change their class as they progress, allowing for diverse combinations. The game is experienced from a first-person perspective, with fluid movement replacing the grid-based movement of previous Wizardry games. A notable improvement introduced in Wizardry 8 is the visibility of approaching enemies, eliminating the sudden appearance of foes. Combat takes place in a turn-based manner, although players can choose to activate a continuous-phase mode. Monsters are adjusted in difficulty according to the party's level, ensuring that higher-level parties face distinct sets of monsters compared to lower-level parties in the same area. However, the scaling of difficulty is constrained to provide variation. Wizardry 8 employs a different set of statistics compared to its predecessors, requiring conversions from the previous upper limit of 18 to the new upper limit of 100. For players seeking a more challenging experience, Sir-Tech reintroduced the "Iron Man Mode" option, reminiscent of the rules used in early Wizardry games. In this "permadeath" mode, players are unable to manually save the game; instead, the game is automatically saved upon quitting. Numerous hidden areas, including "retro dungeons" are scattered throughout the game. These areas present a traditional grid-based dungeon design, featuring obstacles such as spinners, traps, and teleporters.
