Solacia was a peaceful place until the Wizard of Doom arrived. He spread evil across the land, conjuring up all kinds of horrors and forcing the people to pay huge amounts of gold just to stay alive. The Queen has called for a group of Heroes to find and kill the Wizard of Doom, and to return the gold to the people and bring peace to the land of Solacia once again.
Solacia - The Wizard of Doom places you in control of that party of Heroes, consisting of a Warrior, a Thief, an Elf and a Mage. The game is played as an Adventure (campaign) which strings together a series of five quests for your party to undertake. Quest selection is randomised to keep the game fresh and different on each Adventure attempt. In addition to random quest selection, the quests themselves play out very differently each time, adding to replayability.
This is a hex and counter game in which you move, attack, cast spells and interact with chests and shrines on a hex grid quest map in order to achieve your goals. You will need to battle against Giant Spiders and Hornets, Skeletons, Ghosts, Ice Ogres and of course, Dragons amongst other horrors. Over land and through dungeons, can you keep your group alive and rid the land of Solacia of the evil Wizard once and for all?
