Waltz of the Wizard is an immersive magical simulation that lets you feel what it’s like to have incredible powers. In your laboratory, you can combine arcane ingredients into a cauldron, conjure bolts of energy, and interact with a sentient skull. It’s a playful, experimental world designed to showcase the wonder of magic.

Our Expert Score

85/100

Waltz of the Wizard is a delightful sandbox that captures the 'mischievous' side of magic. Unlike RPGs where magic is just a stat, here it feels like a physical force. The way you can stretch objects like taffy, create miniature black holes, or turn the entire room into a zero-gravity zone is consistently entertaining. It feels less like a game with a win-state and more like a high-end toy box for the magically inclined.

The mobile port is surprisingly robust. While it obviously loses the tactile feel of VR controllers, the gesture-based touch controls are intuitive and snappy. The sentient skull provides just enough witty commentary to keep the lab from feeling lonely. It’s a fantastic showcase of physics-based environmental interaction, and discovering a new 'hidden' spell by combining nonsensical ingredients always results in a laugh. It's short, but packed with wonder.

Navigation/ Joystick issues
Sat Feb 14 2026 Awesome artist :p

THIS GAME IS AMAZING!! It’s hilarious and so much fun that you just get to explore with minimal direction. I like that it forces me to think. What I would love to see improved is the navigation/ joystick feature. Tapping is fine but in some situations I can be more precise with the joystick. However the emote tab keeps opening because I hit it by accident. I wish the joystick was where the emote tab/circle is because it gets in the way and it’s frustrating when I just want to enjoy the game. I play on an iPhone so that could be the issue. But it is the primary device I play games on the most. So I’d love to see it formatted for it better. But the game is AMAZING! This is just my wish for improvement and NOT a negative review. Hence the five stars!

Fun experience but with bad touch controls
Tue Oct 28 2025 Jake53456

It’s a fun time on mobile, but would like it more if it had better touch controls, maybe a landscape orientation would help? Difficult to use the virtual joystick without interacting with objects or hitting the emote icon.

Exactly like VR game
Tue Oct 28 2025 hey Siri wake up I don't like

This is an amazing game. It’s exactly like VR game because it is even though the controls are a little hard and you have to use the reality mode for the tutorial to point out something and make things float. I would rate this five stars if they fix that by making a pointing emote by the way, if I have any spelling errors in this, it’s because I’m using talk to text

Just like the ps5

I’m loving the game so far! The only downside is that whenever I try and use a spell, I get softlocked and can’t move my camera nor my character, it’s a great game but it’s just not possible to use spells, please fix it

Best game I’ve ever played

It has so many actions like good spells, talking skull and like finding enemies

It’s so hard to do the Scully puzzle on mobile
Sat Nov 01 2025 dhdtsvebdfsg

I actually do what the bird is telling me to do and it doesn’t work. I need to fix that.

Unwieldy and confusing
Tue Jan 13 2026 Zyg B

I'll revisit again later in hopes the game will be more navigable... Found Skelly a bit mean and condescending at some points, and it killed the fun for me as I struggled just to do basic stuff.

Some Youtube Videos found!
