![]() ![]() Areas (although randomized) are often similar enough that you may find yourself retreading similar territory and wasting valuable time. As a result, you’ll often be finding yourself making little progress and the feeling of exploration is greatly diminished. Additionally, some chaos portals barely add more than thirty seconds to the clock but take longer to destroy with the basic starting weapons. The timer continually ticks down even while checking through menus. While I like this idea in concept, it doesn’t play out all that well given the base time limit is only five minutes. This forces you to return to the tower before time runs out or destroy chaos portals to add time to the clock. You only have a limited amount of time before the world is destroyed which will cause you to lose all your items. The survival element is another key aspect of the gameplay. While you are in the main world, you are tasked with gathering more gears from mini-bosses, gathering resources to continue advancing your spellcasting ability, and building new structures within the tower. The tower acts as both a home base and a safe zone. Wizard With a Gun‘s gameplay is built around an expedition loop that will have you jumping between the real world and an extradimensional wizard tower. While the story is clearly not the focus, there is still effort placed into making the world feel alive with the use of cinematics and musical tracks that deliver on the old west theme.

Somewhere along the way, between early scripts and final cut, guns made it onto the screen, albeit briefly and inexplicably. Frank Baum's iconic novel to screen flowed through countless hands, particularly writers. The Wizard of Oz was produced under Hollywood's old studio system, meaning most people who worked on this film were under contract with MGM, not its individual projects. ![]() RELATED: The Mind Behind Hairspray Also Made This Underrated Cult Classic Musical However, when the Wicked Witch of the West suddenly appears in a cloud of smoke, the Munchkins don't bother to get off a shot. During the early scene in Munchkin Land, there are armed Munchkin guards with rifles and bayonets. Even more curious, the Scarecrow isn't the only one carrying a gun. If Scarecrow could obtain a gun in Oz, then why couldn't the villains? Scarecrow also never fires his gun, even when he and his companions are attacked in the Haunted Forest, so it's unclear what purpose the weapon served.
