The moment you hit the power button, Wizards and Warriors’ epic score lets you know exactly what this game is all about. Knights… magic… swords… demons… gems… gigantic hollow trees…exploding eggs… alarm clocks? Yes, David Wise really knows how to score a game and Rare really knew how to develop them.
That’s right. Rare. The same Rare that many of you listeners will remember from the likes of Goldeneye 64, Battletoads, Killer Instinct, Donkey Kong Country, or Conker’s Bad Fur Day! The list of awesome Rare developed games goes on and on. Whole podcasts have been dedicated to them. The game at hand here, however, is Wizards and Warriors. Did Rare hit another home run?
