Description

In Wizard's Quest, a legendary fantasy wargame from 1979, players embark on a thrilling adventure to claim the throne of the island kingdom of Marnon. Designed by Willis P. Carpenter and Garrett J. Donner, this classic game is easy to learn and fun to play with 2 to 6 friends. The journey takes around 180 minutes, but with its engaging gameplay, you'll be hooked from start to finish. As you navigate the map of Marnon, you'll encounter fierce Orcs, a fire-breathing Dragon, and the wise Peacemaker Wizard. Your goal is to collect three Magic Items hidden across the island, while fending off attacks from Orcs and the Dragon. With the help of your Men, Hero, and Sorcerer, you'll need to strategically petition the Wizard, receive reinforcements, and launch attack campaigns to outmaneuver your opponents and emerge victorious.
