In another world, far, far away…

The promised tranquility of the Kingdom of Mocerd had been mercilessly destroyed since the discovery of the Dungeon of Dudael.

While this uncharted region brought the people wealth through the unearthing of Ancient Pieces and sacred relics from the mythical ages, it also brought about an outbreak of Monsters.

You, the Master of the Adventurers’ guild, have been exclusively issued a royal decree by King Okeir of Mocerd.

Embark on a great expedition to reveal the dungeon’s treasures and the rarefied ‘Blood Crystals’. Pursuit the honorable duty, and be awarded the title of 'Wizardry', the most prestigious honour in the Kingdom.

The Mad Overlord had been consumed with thoughts of revenge ever since the wizard Werdna had stolen his most prized possession, the powerful magic amulet.

Adventurers from all throughout the land came to the Mad Overlord's castle to try their luck in his Proving Grounds – a deadly maze, ten levels deep, at the bottom of which lies the amulet, jealously guarded by Werdna himself.

The legendary first scenario in the Wizardry series, Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord has now been fully remade and enhanced in 3D.

While the well-known difficulty of Werdna's maze has not been altered, quality-of-life improvements have been added in every area. Party management, navigation, spellcasting, and combat have all been significantly enhanced.

Nearly 120 years ago, there was a most evil lord and an equally wicked wizard. They joined forces in a magical struggle to vanquish all other evil powers.

It was during this conflict that they learned of the existence of "it".

The Cosmic Forge... a magic pen which made reality any words scripted with its point. With this pen in hand, they began to script horrors into the universe. It was shortly after obtaining this Cosmic Forge that the two allies became jealous of each other's power, and engaged in a final climactic battle to determine the fate of themselves and of the magic pen. What became of them, no one knows.

And now, adventurers who may change the fate of the magic pen and the universe seek to enter the castle once again...

The disappearance of the magic pen with the power to alter destiny brought about an unexpected occurrence. A spaceship crash-landed on a planet which was uncharted on any map of the known galaxy.

News of the new planet's discovery spread throughout the galaxy. The planet was rumored to be the legendary Lost Guardia. It is said that the great Phoonzang once discovered a secret regarding the power of the universe and of life itself and hid that secret along with the entire planet.

The Dark Savant, an enigmatic traveler of the stars, as well as the two great races that dominate the universe, the Umpani and the T'Rang, descended upon the planet. And so, brave adventurers, your own adventure begins.

Before the beginning, the Cosmic Lords created the very first world using three artifacts. After that, the artifacts were hidden by a magic pen.

However, theft of the magic pen first revealed the existence of Astral Dominae, infused with the power of life itself.

Chaos Moliri, the source of all change, was discovered half a galaxy away.

Last, the Destinae Dominus, containing all knowledge, was stolen by a madman and disappeared.

It is said that whoever obtains all three will gain the powers of the Cosmic Lords. At the dawning of a new destiny, who will prove worthy?

Rising from the land of Athals, the empire of Darua united the people but 100 years later, the emperor of Darua fell into madness and the land was divided among three factions.

Together, the three countries created peace in Athals, but over time, fiends, beasts, and demons were seen once again throughout Athals.

The people hold on to their visions of peace while living in fear of the unknown. However, in the midst of all this, there appeared those who sought out treasures of the past and those who earned their way by exterminating monsters.

These people became known as "Adventurers."

As the many adventurers travel over the lands of Athals, yet another dark shadow looms just over the horizon...

Many travelers had become stranded in the village of Winternedia. Winter had clung to this land for two full years, and the mountain pass was no longer navigable.

A merchant from a band of fur traders approached the adventurers with a request.
According to village legend, there was an old temple in a nearby valley.

In bygone years, it contained a relic of the Madonna of Mercy, through which a ritual was said to keep the dreaded cold away.

But now the relic is lost and the temple has been abandoned.

You must retrieve this relic and return spring to this frozen land.

In a forested region of the Kingdom of Diment, there was a "city where the fog never clears".

The city had become a labyrinth from which none who entered could ever return.

According to legend, the city was transformed into a labyrinth by the deep hatred of the archmage Chu Lu Gah.

It is said that great treasure or a great power left behind by archmage Chu Lu Gah lie slumbering in the labyrinthine city.

The story begins in this labyrinth, the City of Ghosts.

Players choose their own story: an adventure seeking the truth of the labyrinth, or an adventure to escape from the labyrinth.

Deep in the unexplored reaches of the dungeon, a corpse is discovered—one that shouldn’t exist. After Iarumas is resurrected, his memories of life before death are gone, and he spends his days delving into the dungeon to retrieve the bodies of dead adventurers. Can they be revived as well? Or will God reduce them to piles of ash on the altar? Either way, Iarumas collects his finder’s fee. And though his skills earn him some grudging respect, he’s also scorned for this cold, utilitarian attitude. The living keep their distance—Iarumas consorts primarily with the dead. That is, until he meets Garbage, a feral young swordswoman who’s the sole survivor of a massacred party. With Garbage by his side, Iarumas ventures deeper, scouring the dungeon for clues to his past, avoiding monsters, traps, and the inevitability of a permanent ashen demise.

Scorch marks blacken the wireframe dungeon, and the smell of burnt meat hangs in the air. Iarumas’s party stumbles upon a corpse, more charcoal than flesh, and Raraja insists on dragging it out. Murmur—Chant—Pray—Invoke. A large-framed girl named Berkanan gulps the fresh air of her second chance at life. Her confidence is low and her skills as a fledgling mage are inadequate, but despite all that, she has a serious goal—kill the red dragon that burned her party alive. This dragon, an interloper from the lower levels of the dungeon, has become so notorious that even the most seasoned parties refuse to engage. Even so, Garbage and Raraja agree to aid Berkanan, and Iarumas lends his support. The chances of failure are high, but in the dungeon, immolation is not a permanent end...as long as someone is willing to pay. Can Iarumas’s party douse the flames of the dragon, or will they all succumb to a menacing red death?
