Wizard with a Gun Review

Wizard with a Gun reviewed by Carli Velocci on PC, also available on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
Wizard with a Gun does what it says on the tin, but not much more. There are tons of cool guns and spells to craft, elemental enemies to defeat, and neat areas to explore. But poor balance in almost every aspect of combat and an unsatisfying ending make a lot of the time spent not seem worthwhile. With some updates and improvements where it counts, Wizard with a Gun could be a fun time for survival sandbox fans, but right now it feels unfinished.

Ign doesnt love casting spells

0:08 "you're a wizard and you have a gun". Thanks IGN! Great review. Really makes me feel like Spiderman

[@Elibbb-sx3kg]

The score is 6

[@absence9443]

Scores should be abandoned, their purpose is completely outweighed by misuse, individuality issues and uncertainty.

[@mamalannightshyaman]

Glad you all do this on every review by ign, letting us all know that you trust their scores without even watching

[@zh3512]

Can IGN please delete these spoiler comments- they are so annoying

[@archshade7891]

@@zh3512 The score is 6/10

[@eoinokeeffe7014]

So sounds like a pick-up in the Spring after updates.

This not being on the switch is insane

Not really, considering Nintendo puts a stranglehold on games that get put on there

[@KomaedasOneTrueHope]

A port is planned

[@Kaloo1968]

Great review! I'll pick this up once the game has more additions to it's story.

Looks cool will definitely get later on

[@thalunizz21]

I'll pick it up after awhile.

[@emerald-1878]

Kinda reminds me of dont starve especially with the art style

[@TheGamingDynamite]

this game deserves higher than a six imo

[@yusukeurameshi1727]

Same. I've enjoyed my first 15 hours far more than a 6.

[@nikkou2699]

What is the music on 0:32

[@jonathanmoore8886]

These issues will be fixed in an upcoming patch

[@archshade7891]

So true brother all games are Cyberpunk

[@daftPirate15]

Wait, do you actually you have to interrupt your overworld activities every 5 real world minutes?

[@jvstn9662]

At the Beginning, yes, but you increase the time after half an hour already and the time bar always continues to grow.
Also you will increase it by defeating Monsters:)

[@FewNewReasonss]

Came here to see how the game was before the update they're going to release bringing it up to 4 player.

[@iamdickel8574]

great game for steam deck

the why about what the score is is way more important than what score was actually given

[@ACameronUK]

Wow 😔 uncommon for Devolver to release anything not top tier.

[@Cinetiste]

Unless it is, and what is said is subjective. 😏

[@Arch_TheGlassman]

Take it from someone who’s played it:
Easy 8/10 imo

[@yesyes2736]

It is top tier IGNs review is just dog

[@salvadormendoza5045]

It's a 6

IGN doesn't like small companies

[@stefanhell3521]

Hello

[@qasimimran4721]

Ign giving score to AAA game Spiderman 2 : 8
All other games releasing at same time get a 6

[@crono92]

Laika got a 9, worth it

[@archshade7891]

This guy is lying

[@kryptonianguest1903]

Spider-Man games tend to be either great or terrible. So I'd expect one to be rated an 8 or higher, or a 4 or lower.

[@joshuavillarreal1]

Wym "balancing issues" you're playing against npc's.. sounds like weak character build.

[@everythingsalright1121]

Pve games can still have balancing problems fam. Not defending ign but even elden ring had big balance problems. Remember how at launch glinstone pebble was the only spell worth using

[@kolz4ever1980]

Oh ok.. just a 6 so ill pass.

[@MashBro]

Yet another IGN review that feels like it's nit-picking to reach a lower score for no reason

[@TheOfficialSeagull512]

It’s not a 6 lol, it’s a 7 or 8 at best
