The Wizard's Pen

Short description

The Wizard has vanished! The clues to his whereabouts are in his workbook, but all the pages are blank. You'll need the Wizard's magic pen - and your powers of perception - to guess the image on each page. The better your guess, the higher your score, and the closer you are to finding the Wizard.

Review count and SteamSpy's owner range disagree, so the band is widened to cover both rather than picking a favourite. Multiplied by $4.35, the average price these copies actually sold for — weighted from the price history rather than taken from the $4.99 launch price. That is 13% below list price on average. Before Steam's cut, VAT and refunds. How these numbers are calculated.
