Step Inside the Shoes of Broke Wizards
5TH Cell, renowned for their innovative title Scribblenauts, has unveiled an exciting new venture: Broke Wizards. This forthcoming co-op adventure is set to launch on PC through both Steam and the Epic Games Store, marking a departure from the studio’s traditional puzzle-centric gameplay. Instead, players can anticipate a lively multiplayer experience where collaboration, magic, and the ever-pressing need to pay rent intertwine seamlessly.

In Broke Wizards, players can join forces as one to six Wizard roommates, embarking on a series of whimsical jobs to gather enough funds before the week’s end. Their primary challenge, however, transcends the usual threats of monsters or perilous quests; they must contend with a formidable Imp Landlord, who looms large with the threat of devouring them should they fail to meet their rent obligations.
The game promises an eclectic mix of magical tasks, including:
- Rescuing towns from marauding monsters
- Exploring mysterious backrooms
- Racing enchanted ravens
- Engaging in a wizard-themed mobile game called Slitherin’
Combat plays a significant role in the adventure, with players wielding powerful spells to vanquish foes while carefully avoiding the temptation to inadvertently devastate entire neighborhoods, which could jeopardize their hard-earned paychecks.
Once the workday concludes, players can unwind with friends through various activities such as:
- Watching videos
- Playing musical instruments
- Competing in PvP matches
- Engaging in tag
- Setting off fireworks
Broke Wizards also offers a wealth of customization options, allowing players to unlock an array of outfits, hats, wings, and magic boards. Additionally, they can hatch Pocketdragon eggs, providing them with charming companions throughout their journey.
Progression in the game revolves around collecting Magic Keys, which can be earned through various jobs, exploration, puzzles, and the all-important act of paying rent. Amassing enough keys will ultimately unlock a treasure chest containing the deed to the wizards’ home, liberating them from the clutches of their demanding landlord once and for all.
With its unique blend of quirky humor, diverse activities, and cooperative gameplay, Broke Wizards is poised to carve out an entertaining new niche for 5TH Cell, making it a title worth watching as its release approaches.
