What Ultimate Wizard is

Ultimate Wizard is an adventure game developed by Progressive Peripherals & Software and released in 1986. It was published by Electronic Arts. It is available on Commodore C64/128/MAX only.

The premise, in the publisher's words

The player character, Wilfrid, is a wizard in purple robes, and his enemies include witches, knights, giant insects and other various monsters. Each level contains keys, and the object involves getting Wilfrid to get the key to move on to the next location. Each level also requires a different spell to find the key, and every key found gives him a finite amount of times he could cast the spell. Some spells cast projectiles, which could either kill or freeze enemies, while some would teleport Wilfrid around, either by turning him to a non-corporeal "shadow" or by instantly moving him to his starting point.
