This game was first released in 2005. There are multiple versions available, but it is an old game and not guaranteed to run on all systems. Please read the details of the different versions and test the demos before purchasing.

Original edition: This package is windows-only and uses the older graphics style:

It contains two different exes, built in different editions of Game Maker. The installer will install both of them and you can choose which one to launch. The 'lo fi' version was created for specific hardware that had problems running the normal game. On most machines the 'lo fi' edition will run extremely slowly. It is not recommended unless you encounter errors with the normal build.

Deluxe edition: This version was created later. Several new items and secret bonuses were added to the game, the "Wizard's Challenge" minigame was entirely redesigned, and all the artwork for the monsters and endings was redrawn:
