About the game
Dating from 1982, Wizard of Words for C64 is preserved in the VG90 archive as a catalogue entry — a factual marker of a release that belonged to the early cartridge-and-arcade boom.
the early cartridge-and-arcade boom was a period of rapid change for the medium: the arcade was king and the first home consoles were racing to catch up. Placing Wizard of Words in that timeline shows where it sat as the industry evolved.

Why it matters
The value of a record like this is context: the early cartridge-and-arcade boom produced far more games than the handful everyone remembers, and the arcade was king and the first home consoles were racing to catch up. An archive earns its keep by preserving the long tail, not just the hits.
