![]() Whereas the other actions in Lizard Wizard are pretty much within the player’s control, the dungeon exploration aspect is very random and… arguably… not very rewarding, but I’ll come to that later. ![]() Both games work in very similar ways up until this point (albeit with an entirely different skin) and if that were it, this review would focus a lot more on the aesthetic differences between the two.Īs it stands though, Lizard Wizard differentiates itself by layering in a couple of additional mechanics, the most significant of which is the inclusion of a dungeon exploration mechanic. In Lizard Wizard the players collect magical ingredients like roots or mushrooms, and then use them to cast spells, summon familiars and wizards (who might be lizards) and buy towers (after conversion of the resources). In Raccoon Tycoon, these resources were relatively terrestrial - like wood, or stone - and the players built buildings. In both games (bearing in mind I will switch focus entirely to Lizard Wizard as soon as I can) players basically use cards to obtain resources and drive the value of resources in an open stock market - then dump those resources for another resource in order to build a more efficient engine (by investing in cards). ![]() Not so where Lizard Wizard is concerned though, because this particular game is a remake of 2018’s Raccoon Tycoon - which was also released by publisher Forbidden Games. Whether we’re talking about board or video games, remakes, remasters and reskins are increasingly common, however in most cases, the original version of any game targeted for such treatment will be at least four or five years old.
