Delve deep into the world of Wizardry once again with a new volume where three countries are prosperous and all is well...until an assault by three demon lords throws everything into precarious balance. A party of warriors is summoned to set things right by toppling the demonic hordes. The game may be played with standard PS2-powered graphics but those with a yen for the olden days may also play the game in wire-frame mode where the dungeons are represented by white lines on a black background and nothing else - just like in the ancient days of the Apple IIe. Old and familiar monsters return to the fray but Starfish also adds 40 new creatures to the mix for some new blood to let. We've always enjoyed the Wizardry games and Empire III brings back the old magic with new-type visuals but old-school gameplay. Interestingly, memory card data from "Wizardry Empire I: Princess of the Ancient" and "Wizardry Empire II: Legacy of the Princess" on the Playstation 1 may be used in Wizardry Empire 3 but your characters will start at level 0. The character ages are also reverted to youthful numbers in order to account for the new adventure which awaits them. View the back cover.
