Evaluation
Wizardry 6: Bane of the Cosmic Forge is a classic DOS-era RPG originally released by Sir-Tech in 1990 that was brought to Steam on September 10, 2013 by Nightdive Studios. It is a fully finished, self-contained game that launched on Steam as a complete product with no post-launch content ever planned or announced. The developer's activity on Steam has been limited entirely to technical maintenance patches — updates to the DOSBox emulation layer, library updates, and compatibility fixes for Windows, Linux, and Mac. The most recent such patch was posted on November 21, 2018. There have been no major content releases, no DLC, no roadmaps, and no developer statements suggesting any future content additions. This game shipped as a finished classic title and has no content development ongoing.

About this game
FULL-COLOR ANIMATED graphics
DIGITIZED sound (NO add-on cards required)
HARD DISK supported
Ten years ago, WIZARDRY set the standards in Fantasy Role-Playing (FRP). Now after two million copies have been sold and dozens of awards have been won, Bane of the Cosmic Forge raises and redefines those standards. This new WIZARDRY, the truest simulation ever of Fantasy Role Playing, will push your computer, your mind, and your sense of adventure to their very limits. Only through the power of the latest computer technology could the full dimensions of this new genre in FRP be possible.
This is FRP the way you wanted it to be.
Prepare yourself. Take with you six companions - choose wisely, for having chosen, your fate is in their hands. Enter the ancient castle to retrieve the Cosmic Forge, a magical pen whose writings caused the river of time itself to change course. You will find treasure, armor, and magic items to advance your quest; meet wizened and cryptic dwellers who hold secrets that must be unearthed; and solve the riddles and puzzles that abound.
But beware- you and your party will encounter countless dangers, hazards, and creatures of dazzling form to block your way. Only through your magic and skills, ever growing as you progress, can they be vanquished.
And the story, so rich in mythology and legend, weaves a web of intrigue so complex that only you, with patience and travail can unravel.
Let the computer roll the dice, consult the charts and apply the rules. From the 400 items of armor and weaponry researched for authenticity to the realistic combat structure, incorporating Primary and Secondary attack, this reproduction of true FRP within the computer environment will make all other attempts obsolete.
The adventure is as real as the pleasure.
