How to Play
Fizzle Wizards! is a quick wizard duel for two. Outguess your rival and bring their health down to zero before they bring down yours. A duel takes a couple of minutes.
The goal
Each wizard starts with 5 health, shown as hexagons . Reduce your rival's health to 0 to win. If you both reach 0 at the same time, it's a draw.
Each round
- Tap a spell in your hand, then tap Cast.
- Your rival secretly picks a spell at the same time.
- Both cards flip, the spells fly, and the result is shown.
Attack spells
There are three attacks: Water, Fire and Earth. You can cast them as often as you like. When two different attacks meet in the middle, the stronger one fizzles the other: the weaker spell disappears, and the stronger one carries on to hit its target for 1 damage.
If you both cast the same attack, neither fizzles, and you both take 1 damage.
Shields
You have three shields. Each can be used once per game. Used shields fade out next to your health bar.
Heal: an attack cast at you heals you for 1 health instead of hurting you. You can't heal above your starting 5 health.
Reflect: an attack cast at you bounces back, and the caster takes the 1 damage instead.
Lock: blocks an attack and locks that spell, so your rival can't cast it in the next round. A locked spell shows a padlock.
Good to know
- If you both cast shields, nothing happens, but both shields are still used up.
- Heal does nothing if you're already at full health, so save it for when you've been hurt.
- You always have at least one attack you can cast.
Tips
- Higher-ranked computer rivals learn your habits, so mix up your spells.
- Reflect and Lock work best when you're sure an attack is coming.
- It's a game of luck and bluff, so don't be afraid to take a gamble.
