In fact, I'd say that's the most annoying aspect of Wizorb because running out of magic limits your options and it's often difficult to replenish it.
Also, if you want to tear through blocks then you can enchant the ball with fire when you're about to hit it which is something that I thoroughly enjoy well, except for when I accidentally hit the ball at the wrong angle thus wasting some magic power in the process. For example, when it could use a little nudge, you can cast a wind spell to move it over. Speaking of the magic gauge, spells can be unleashed while the ball is on its course or when you're about to deflect it. On the plus side, you'll earn coins as you succeed that you can redeem to rebuild the village as well as purchase certain items and doing so will help you in your adventure as you can increase the amount of lives that you start with, max out your magic gauge, and more. Thankfully, you have a few continues and each one grants you a handful of lives but if you run out of all of these then you'll have to try the stage all over again. What's that green blob looking at?Īs you play through stages, you're tasked with completing 12 levels in a row then taking down a boss. Overall, I thoroughly enjoy being in the world of Wizorb.
I also enjoyed the boss battles that occur at the end of each stage as each one not only stands out as a unique challenge, they also look menacing albeit in a cute old-school way. In between runs, you can explore a small village that's been destroyed and whether you're in the middle of the action or walking around this village, the graphics really pop with lovely pixel-perfect retro visuals and spot-on animation that impressively bring everything to life. The story of Wizorb is simple as you play as the wizard Cyrus from the Kingdom of Gorudo who's on a mission to save the land from an invading evil. This mix of magic and classic tried-and-true gameplay is wonderful and will keep you hooked as you get further and further while unlocking new stages complete with distinct environments along the way. Meanwhile, you play as a wizard who can utilize magic spells in order to turn the tides in his favour. At its core, it's very much what you'd expect from a Breakout-style game where you bounce an orb off a paddle that can move side to side in the hopes of destroying every single brick, box, and enemy on the playfield.
I originally played Wizorb on Steam about 10 years ago and was delighted to see it re-emerge on the Nintendo Switch eShop a decade later. │ Like you, Video Chums despises clickbait so you won't find any divisive content or articles that fuel the console wars here. Wizorb is a delightful brick-breaker that's been around for a long time and it's finally available for Switch so let's see how well it's held up. Wizorb is also available for Ouya, PSP, and Xbox 360 Maciejewski playing a Nintendo Switch on Octo🧙♂️
