Which Wizard? - Detailed Information

Which Wizard takes what you love about social deduction games and adds exciting new layers of magic. Venture into a cursed castle with a party of up to 10 Wizards, only to discover that one (or more) of your so-called friends has been consumed by Evil. Can the Good Wizards identify the traitor trying to kill them all before it's too late?

Play with friends or find a group through online matchmaking. You'll have to use all your cunning to discover the truth (or conceal it) with spells flying everywhere!

The Magic

• Use Transfrogrify to disable other Wizards' spells (and killing power) by turning them into slow, hopping frogs
  
• Each Wizard gets a random subclass with a unique spell! Subclass doesn't care about alignment, so beware the Evil Healer who "just" wants to take care of you... alone... in a dark hallway… with no witnesses…
  
• Evil Wizards have access to secret magic like Who's Who, making everyone anonymous for 10 seconds so they can pull off tricky kills
  
• Ghosts haunt the castle! Dead Wizards who collect the most magic orbs get to choose a Haunt that affects all Wizards on the next round

The World

• Act fast: the castle's curse drains Health from Good Wizards every second
  
• Complete quests (mini-games) around the castle to gain Health
  
  • Good Wizards can donate Health to repair the Magic Crystal. With enough donations, they'll cure the curse for an instant win
    
  • Evil Wizards can use Health to cast blood magic and set off curses to confuse and interrupt their targets
• Portals give Evil Wizards a way to travel instantly across the castle and surprise their prey
  
• Summon everyone to banish a suspicious Wizard. Evil wins if it kills enough Good!
  
• Explore Dark Meadows Castle with its pockets of lore and charming characters like Meemo the sleepy dragon

The Features

• Adjust spell cooldowns, movement speed, vision radius, and many other rules to customize your game
  
• Full controller support lets you play your way!
  
• Connect with Private or Public Lobbies on worldwide servers
  
• Accuse each other of murder with in-game text chat
  
• Play with up to 10 people so you can betray more people in one go

A Message From the Team

Which Wizard is a love letter to the social deduction genre.

We love how online social deduction games can bring friends together near and far to communicate and solve mysteries together. We love when players create awesome drama, suspense, and sneaky plays. Our goal with Which Wizard is to take what we like about social deduction, reimagine some elements, and give players the tools to craft a personal strategy around new gameplay layers like subclass spells and map-wide ghost haunts.

We’re a small team that has been working hard to make something that we (and hopefully you) enjoy playing! Which Wizard began with a humble game jam shortly after the pandemic hit, and it gave us all a creative, communal outlet through hard times that followed. We hope that it brings you closer to new or old friends the same way it brought us together as a team! Nothing says "I care about you" like a little magic murder between friends.

If you want to help spread the magic, please wishlist Which Wizard! It helps a lot. We also have a community on Discord if you'd like to join for playtests, devlogs, updates, and more!
