Enter the magical workforce as a nomadic wizard, wandering the fields and valleys to complete spell jobs. What is the ultimate goal? The greatest reward of all: fame. As one of these enterprising wizards in Wizards Wanted, you must gather magical experience and coins for your work. Resourcefulness is essential as you pick up helpful mushrooms, buy magical dust from tricky pixies, and navigate the twisted paths and teleportation stones. But don't meander too much. You need to be in good standing with the Royal Palace and earn your Spell License by the end of the game, so get to work!
