Wizar-er, RIZ-ZOAWD

Crossword

Ignore the mangled letters. This is essentially a Wizard of Oz RPG for the DS. I did a double take when I saw it. It looks really nice graphically, and it kinda reminds me of Dragon Quest in a way. Still, the entire concept is a bit hard to wrap my head around.

*Meh*

Hope they feature feature Kalidahs as upper tier monsters.

Ugh, they went with the Ruby Slippers over the Silver Shoes.

Tizoc

Eww it looks animu-ted. Will give it a try tho.

Conekiller

the title of the game reminds me of the joke from Black Sheep (Chris Farley movie) "Ro-adds, Rooodz…"

Looks interesting, I'll be keeping my eye on this one.

Earthworm Zim

The Tin Man looks incredible.

*Meh*

I kind of wish they'd do more with some of the other Oz books. How is it that no one has ever done anything with Woot the Wanderer? Or Ojo the Unlucky?

Sandai Mera

There's other stories beside Oz didn't know that.

*Meh*

I personally credit the writer of the Oz series, L. Frank Baum, with creating hippies fifty years before the Summer of Love ever happened.
