the maze level is impossible! at least make the exp gained remain even after death so we can level up... otherwise it's just another pretty game with stupid rules....
Using the spell you just picked up. If you haven't started the game on Master you should see tutorial hints in the bottom right corner. They'll tell you all you need to know ;)

Great game, 4.5/5, my only problem is the rest option. when it taught it to me, a simple double click worked great. In later levels, however, I end up seeming to button mash my left mouse button just to get it to register a double click and then the game lags for like a min, not that the lag matters, its a turn based game, but i still have to wait.

I don't even understand how to change my strategy w/ my options as limited as they are. Spells are ridiculously static, the upgrades are totally unimaginative and close to insignificant. Between that and the facts that we have no way of telling the aggro range of the monsters, we're stuck at moving one block at a time, no reliable method of healing, and awkward hitboxes for spells/awkward placement of enemies, the game is absolutely frustrating beyond entertainment.

The game is cool and looks nice but is kinda buggy. I had to reload the page once on the first level and the camera got stuck on the third. I hope you can fix these bugs.
What kind of browser are you using? Can you open the developer tools console (usually F12 or CTRL+SHIFT+i, you might have to select the console tab in the developer toolbar) and send the contents to support@HypnoticOwl.com?

I really want to like this game. It has so many good ideas in it, but it's just so repetitive. You're casting the same series of spells on each enemy at just the right time to avoid damage. The way to cast is cool but at this point I just want hotkeys.

This is a great game with a lot of good ideas, and I want to love it, but it needs check points. Having to restart the maze every time I made one mistake was so frustrating I stopped playing.

You have to use the spell to open the door. If you haven't started the game in Master difficulty, you should see tutorial hints at the bottom right. Just follow their instructions ;)

Needs quality toggle button for graphics. It would be a pretty cool game, but the lag just ruins it for me. I'm sure the game would have a better rating if it weren't for the lag. I know I can't rate it very high, because it's practically unplayable.
The lag has nothing to do with the graphics. It's most likely the audio files that are being loaded in the background. If you let it load a little while until everything is in your cache, you shouldn't experience any lag at all.

im not against developers being financially rewarded for their games. yet i cannot help but go "yay, no sponsor ad; goes right into the game with a single click!"

I have to disagree with the player requesting "replaying the level to gain experience points". The levels are designed to be winnable, so this is not necessary. Kudos to the developer for creating a game that doesn't encourage grinding. I'll take strategy over grinding any day.

This game has a lot of potential, but for me I find that it's a little too slow and that's what is holding this game back for me.

yea finally beat maze level kill everybody including vampires in the tomb, got my self invisibility spell.
TIP. kill vampires w tons of freeze when they desapear , and when u start the maze go straight to the chest for an extra heart.

cant complete the entire maze, I can beat the level but theres always at least 2 enemies left, and I hate giving up the xp. Wish there was a way to gather some extra xp. I went 1 into shock and 1 into frost
That's a pretty strong point distribution in my experience. You know that Ice Breath can spread around edges, if you position yourself right? E.g. http://hypnoticowl.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/shot3.png

Very nice game! I love the fact that has a pretty high difficulty and need a plan before go on to kill enemis.
A warning for the developer: when i step in the last black book, the game has frozen and forced me to replay the whole level :/
The bug is already fixed, but you probably still have the old game in your cache. To reload the current version, right-click on the game and select "This Frame" then "Reload Frame".

It keeps forgetting my game (no continue option). Don't have this problem with other kongregate games - what is it using to store session info between browser executions?

I've no problems running the game on that version with AdblockPlus and Adguard enabled. It might be your antibanner plugin.

Look at their range. Like you, they can only cast a spell or walk. So when they turned invisible, they are still on the same spot. When they are invisible, they will take the shortest route to attack you, so you can estimate where they are and freeze them ;)

Game tip (after finishing it): Upgrade and use Invisible Spell. Lure them in line and vanish into thin air. Sneak into distant tile and blow them up with Fire Ball. That's it!

Great game, but it doesn't load on internet explorer, and I expirience performance issues on chrome. If there was any way for you to fix that, it would be epic! Thank you.
It should run on IE11, maybe you have to update your browser. It runs best on (up-to-date) Chrome, the performance issues you experience are most likely just the audio files being loaded in the background. As soon as everything is in your cache the game should run smoothly :)

Checkpoints are really needed, some of the levels are really challenging and take a lot of time to finish so it's really annoying having to redo the whole level, plus theres not much healing potions either, its a real struggle. Other than that it's a great game, I think it is perfect.

1366x768 but that is minor compared to the freeze bug when you pick up that book, let us know when that is fixed, thanks
It's fixed! :) To reload right-click on the game and select "This Frame" > "Reload Frame"
(The game should fit if you press F11 to go into browser fullscreen:)

so i got stuck on the hedgmaze with skeletons because i apparently chose the wrong upgrades for the spells, and there's no way to go back to an earlier level/save or to respec the upgrades. i rated low, since you apparently didn't bother playtesting this to make sure all choices work.
You can get through that level without a single upgrade. Most of the game can be played without upgrades, at least on Novice. The trick you probably missed is that the Ice Cone spell extends around edges if cast from the right distance. See http://hypnoticowl.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/shot3.png

Just a warning, when you try to get the black & red book in the underground room with the mummy king, the game freezes.
