However, the ambitious Turncoat Mage, Ahnglum, unleashed chaos by opening ancient portals, releasing alien moons and monstrous creatures. This brought the Nightfalls - a terrifying plague that causes madness and mutations during unpredictable eclipses. Heroes are now summoned to stop the Nightfalls, overthrow Ahnglum, and vanquish the demon God he serves. Embark on an epic quest to reclaim peace and sanity in the once serene Zikverländ. Champions, rise and put an end to the darkness! Meet Makino, the Winged Bear: a furry powerhouse in melee combat, capable of charging into the heart of enemy ranks with his enchanted warhammer. Able to withstand lots of punishment, he can also bring the pain when needed. When Makino consumes Madzik energy, he reverts to his animal instincts, leaping at enemies to maul them with his razor-sharp claws. Deceptively adorable Veroline is a powerful spellcaster ready to devastate anyone in her way. She uses her magical abilities to control the battlefield and escape her attackers and when empowered by Madzik, she embraces her darker side and gains a whole new suite of abilities to strike fear into her enemy's hearts. Switch between these mighty heroes and conquer any challenges thrown at you. Set foot in lively handcrafted lands, filled with rewarding exploration opportunities. From wool to pencil, Zikverländ is shaped with IRL elements that bring a unique aspect to our game. Madzik is an unforgettable adventure, where moon madness, cooperative play, and immersive story-telling fuse into a one-of-a-kind retro experience.
