Our take on The Wizard's Pen™

The focus on visual guessing narrows the core interaction to observation and identification. The added mini-games, potions, and sketchbook challenges provide variety, but the workbook-based search remains the central structure.

What is The Wizard's Pen™?

The Wizard's Pen™ is a hidden-object adventure about finding a vanished wizard.

His workbook contains clues, but its pages begin blank. A magic pen reveals images that must be identified using powers of perception. Better guesses produce higher scores, and each uncovered image brings the search closer to the wizard. The game includes over 400 pages of hidden objects, 10 magic potions, 16 hidden-object mini-games, and seven sketchbooks with special challenges. Players can also earn bonus points through the game’s activities. Progress combines image discovery, guessing, and clue-following with additional mini-games and challenge content.
