Fireball Wizard

Meh, very marginal recommend Overall rating 6/10 This is a very half-baked 2D platformer. You can get 100% achievements in about 3 hours or less (my displayed playtime is innacurate, as I left the steam deck to sleep.) Works best with on a steam deck or controller. Mediocre and simplistic game play, but I will give it a marginal thumbs up based upon its charming graphics and cheap price. Just know what you are getting into.

Honestly this game sat in my library untouched for way longer than it should have. It's so much fun! the game looks great, it plays really well and the levels are kind of puzzly sometimes which is nice, it gives some variety to the feel of each level. It poses a nice challenge without being overly frustrating and the controls are super simple and easy to learn, so even as a beginner I found it very enjoyable to play.

Fireball Wizard developed by ginTronic and published by PID Games is a fast-paced 2D action platformer that pays tribute to classic arcade and console games of the 16-bit era. Built around responsive controls, magical combat, and exploration-focused level design, the game blends traditional platforming mechanics with a modern indie polish. While the premise is simple and the story minimal, the title succeeds by focusing on satisfying gameplay, charming pixel art visuals, and a steady progression of abilities that gradually expand the wizard’s capabilities. The game places players in the role of a powerful wizard who must travel across the magical land of Wizardonia to defeat waves of monsters and restore balance to the kingdom. The narrative remains intentionally light and mostly functions as a framework for the adventure. Rather than relying on lengthy dialogue or elaborate storytelling, the game follows the classic arcade tradition where the main objective is to progress through increasingly dangerous areas while defeating enemies and overcoming obstacles. This approach keeps the pacing focused on gameplay while maintaining the nostalgic spirit of older platforming titles. At i…

Idk how people thought this was hard, it def wasn't. Sure it is a quick fun little game but don't lie about the challenge.

Superb little platformer with great music and smooth platforming mechanics. Silly voice acting and can be quite challenging in places. The game has enough secrets and collectibles to be engaging without turning into a chore-fest. And my first 100% achievement game on steam! Loved it.

Kinda fun but also easy and a little bit pointless. The graphics are definitely they best part, they are just dreamlike and charming enough to make the game worthwhile. Your wizard can shoot from his or her wand and do three magic spells. Later on you also get a ground pound and a forward dash, but the action and platforming is really clunky so it doesn't feel like anything special. The most fun levels are the difficult ones, but those are few and far between, with many just being jumps around basic spikes and lava with a few enemies thrown in. The achievements require a bit of effort but don't really add too much to the experience. It's worth playing if you like simple platform games.
