“There are a lot of revival boomer shooters out there, but nothing has hit me as perfectly as Wizordum. There's just so much to love about what Emberheart Games accomplished here. I love exploring these large levels that…”
“Awesome boomer shooter where you play as Arcane John Wick versus Muppet Goblins. The levels are huge. Weapons are fun, an insane amount of tools and spells aside from the weapons and the music is unreasonably good. The…”
“Wizordum rules so hard, the whole game is just so charming and well done - with a really excellent level editor included to boot.”

“I like it. Gameplay is smooth and satisfying, decent enemy and weapon variety, sick level design, great music and adorable artstyle. Some items and spells are more useful than others, but that is just normal. Three…”
“This is a GOTY contender. One of the most fun FPS in recent years. I love the graphics, and the performance are so great. On the steamdeck, I get so much battery runtime! There are secrets everywhere, and even secrets…”

“Time to add another one to the pile of games I've played because of a recommendation by Civvie 11. Wizordum is a really well crafted throwback to the very first days of the FPS era, taking inspiration not only from…”

“Runs smooth, graphics are fun and in the style of Wolf3D, but - navigating is a chore, even with the minimal help from the minimap. - you can soft-lock yourself behind blocking objects like trees if you use the…”
“Great art direction and sound that quickly immerses the player and a steady loop of combat choices, puzzles, and secrets to sustain gameplay. Some people gripe with the meaninglessness of weapons, but they're all fun.…”

“Wizordum feels like a love letter to both Wolfenstein 3D and Heretic. One of the reasons I bounced off of Heretic was due to the weapons feeling underwhelming. Wizordum has mostly really solid weapons, unfortunately the…”

“I'm a simple guy. My boy Civvie shills a boomshoot, I need to play it. On a more serious note: I very much recommend it. It's interesting how good the gameplay works with the limitations the devs set themselves.”
— a player, Steam review · 19 hrs played“Hereticdoomenstein 3D: Atomic Edition. Very literally that, including no jumping, and second to last difficulty for normal runs. For those of you who don't know what that means, it means it's good and you should buy it.”
