Four wizards and total friendly fire
Up to four players fight through the campaign together, in local or online co-op, and every spell hits friends as hard as monsters. You revive each other, steal the kill, then mistype a combination and set the whole group on fire.
That shared danger is the joke. One wizard holds a shield while another charges a beam, a third heals the enemies by accident, and the plan falls apart in the best way. With 13 campaign levels across forests, valleys, and frozen halls, there is plenty of room for heroic rescues and stupid deaths.
Mix elements, make your own disaster
There is no spell list to memorize. You combine elements on the fly into projectiles, beams, blasts, shields, and weapon enchantments, then find Magicks, items, and challenges as you go.
Wet an enemy before you freeze it, set oil on fire, shock a damp crowd. Creative thinking beats button-mashing, and the satirical Norse-myth world rewards trying strange ideas. An unlockable hardcore mode then throws waves of enemies at you for leaderboard bragging rights.
Good to know before you gather the group?
Can you play it solo?
Yes. The campaign and other modes work alone, but the game is built around co-op, and the spell system is more forgiving when friends can revive you.
What do you actually do together?
You fight through a fantasy adventure against an evil sorcerer and his minions, combining elements into spells, reviving teammates, and clearing 13 campaign levels plus extra challenges.
Is it hard to learn?
Simple to start, tricky to master. Combining elements is quick to grasp, but aiming beams, shields, and enchantments under pressure takes practice, which is half the party fun.
