    Fans of the Wizardry series should give this a shot. It takes a little getting used to but the auto mapping feature definitely makes the game much more accessible. Don’t expect an easy game. This is definitely not a walk through the park.

    As a snapshot of games in the ‘80s The Bard’s Tale Trilogy on Xbox One is a great example, with enough work gone into the remaster to keep them fresh without losing their initial charm.
