Wigmund is a top down single player action combat RPG set in a medieval open world that released on Steam in March 2022 and before you judge this game too quickly for being a relatively unknown indie game, let me tell you that this is an absolute hidden gem.

I actually played Wigmund for the first time in March 2021 and I absolutely hated the controls, I tried making a first impressions video for the game but it was so bad that I cancelled the video, instead of giving up though this indie dev spent the next year completely reworking the game, they fixed the awkward controls, changed the entire starting experience and Wigmund now feels like a completely different game.

If I was to describe how this game feels I’d say it’s like Runescape but single player and with action combat where every ability can be dodged if you play correctly, the game has massive open zones, various professions to level up such as survival, crafting, medicine and blacksmithing as well as epic boss fights throughout the main story, dungeon exploration, lots of secret treasures to loot and hidden side quests.

As of making this video Wigmund has less than 100 reviews on Steam and comes with a free demo, I have a lot of respect for Indie devs like this that don’t give up despite me giving quite harsh critique for it when I first tried the game back in 2021 so if you like what you see then give it a try.

What do you think about Wigmund? do you agree that this game is a charming hidden gem of an RPG? let me know in the comments below!

Wigmund Steam Description

ABOUT THIS GAME
Two twin brothers. A fellowship of warriors. And only one true King.
Wigmund is a story-driven RPG set up in a medieval fantasy world inspired by those cultures - Anglo-Saxon and Celtic - which also inspired J.R.R. Tolkien. Build your fellowship and explore an open-world, rich with outlaw camps, ruined castles, dangerous caverns and forgotten ruins. You are not limited by classes. Develop your knight in favor of speed, health, damage or preternatural abilities.

Unique game-play for swordsmen
Control Wigmund's sword with gestures, your mouse becoming an extension of his weapon. It is really different and it might take practice before you can master it. That is not all, getting out of trouble with dodges and rolls is also required! No boss fight can be a simple stand-still hack & slash but an opportunity to prove your sword mastery.

Move with WASD, attack once with a left click. Swipe the mouse to your left and your hero will slash to the left, swipe the mouse to your right and your hero will slash to the right.

Archery
The archery build offers the opportunity to engage enemies form a safe(r) distance. As you might expect, this is easier to learn and use than the way of the sword.

Professions
We have included three professions: Medicine, Crafting and Survival. With Medicine one will be able to craft potions for healing and elixirs that will increase stats for a longer duration. Collecting herbs will play a crucial role in this profession.

With Crafting one can create some auxiliary armor pieces, item upgrades and jewels for enhancing items and weapons. Collecting animal hides and mining will be very important in crafting. And finally with Survival one will be able to fish, hunt and create different gastronomic experiences. And yes... with the proper dwarven fishing pole, one might even fish some treasure.

Detailed equipment
In addition to standard equipment items various other character equipment pieces were added, like tomes, knee-guards and arm-guards. Invest the reagents and rewards you collect along the journey in equipment.

Abilities
Many abilities are available. Some of them reflect the Talent/Perk system. They include (but are not limited to): a holy shield for Exorcists, a Dagger Storm for Rangers and a Shield Wall for Sword & Shield warriors.

Preternatural skills
Unleash various up-gradable preternatural abilities that will aid you in battle, either defensively or offensively.
