If you dismiss the more apparent flaws, then you'll find The Wizards: Enhanced Edition to be an average adventure title. The quest itself plays out fine and enemies are fun to defeat, even if they don't pose too much trouble. However, the accuracy issues are simply too great that they transform what could be a game-changing VR wizard experience into an exercise in flailing limbs. It isn't a terrible game, but don't expect something top-tier in the VR space.

The Wizards Enhanced Edition is a good game. It has a unique spell-casting system, that’s loads of fun to use, isn’t that cumbersome and makes you genuinely feel powerful. It’s got a comprehensive, but uninspiring campaign mode, stuffed full of collectibles and competitive leaderboards to encourage replayability.

The one cool gameplay aspect in The Wizards isn’t enough for me to recommend this game to anyone besides die-hard medieval fantasy fans who have already played Skyrim VR and The Mage’s Tale and are still craving for more of the same. There are good ideas in here, without question, but its infuriating control issues, terrible motion tracking, and short duration are just unforgivable. I’d be down for a game featuring more of those sweet archery mechanics, though…

Fights get repetitive against the same few enemies, puzzles feel obligatory, and there’s not much reason to use one spell over another. The gameplay simply never necessitates the fantasy, which makes living the fantasy get dull more quickly than I would have liked. The Wizards nails the dream of having magic at your fingertips, but never goes as far as to make the magic feel all that useful.

The Wizards Enhanced Edition is a pretty fun VR fantasy adventure that brings consistent thrills to the PSVR in its cool spellcasting and its polished presentation. You’ll feel like a real, powerful wizard slaying orcs and goblins and lots of other crazy creatures — and the launch price of $24.99 is pretty sweet too.

On the gamut of magic-based first-person action games, The Wizards is definitely one of the better ones. Its spell-casting system is interactive without being too cumbersome and the campaign mode packs a decent amount of content. Plenty of collectibles, a replayable Arena mode, and lots of mission augmentations add up to this being one of the best ways to live out your most fantastical magical fantasies in VR. We just wanted more and preferably multiplayer of some kind.
