    WiZmans World Re;Try does a lot of things right. It’s aesthetically gorgeous. It has simple, tried-and-true turn-based combat, with monster catching and fusing mechanics. It has a weird world and story. But it’s also a grind-heavy linear dungeon crawl that gets monotonous way too quickly. Going through dungeons feels like a chore. And bosses are unbalanced compared to the ease of combat and lack of experience points that precede them. WiZmans World Re;Try needs to be rebalanced, but it’s already a retry.

    Okay WiZmans World Re;Try is a modern revival of a cult Nintendo DS JRPG that pairs an intriguing mystery in the isolated city of Wizarest with a flexible and conceptually rich Anima Fusion system, but repetitive dungeon design and extreme difficulty swings undermine its potential. While the story setup, elemental customization, and boss encounters hint at a deeper tactical experience, the moment to moment loop of grinding, linear maps, and uneven balance makes progression feel more exhausting than rewarding.
