Chaos - The Battle of Wizards (v. 1.16) Разработано Richard Quirk |
Chaos is a turn-based, tactical game. The aim of the game is to defeat all the other wizards by using magical spells and summoning creatures. Illusions are easy to cast, but can be just as easily disbelieved. A real Golden Dragon is a fearsome ally. Based on the 1985 ZX Spectrum game by Julian Gollop. Advert free.
If the game fails to run on your phone, please send me an email and we'll try and work out what the problem is.

[2013-08-26] A Google User: Classic! Best game ever! |
|
[2013-08-21] A Google User: Enjoyable but not entirely accurate A very good version but I've noticed that unlike the original on the Spectrum that once you come in contact with an enemy you don't get given the option to attack all the time, specifically anything that flies. If you wish to move next to an enemy then attack it doesn't work. Also, I would love to get the original sounds for fighting and especially the original sound for when you kill a wizard as it was a distinctive and awesome sound to hear when you killed someone! |
|
[2013-08-16] A Google User: WOW! No faults or bugs yet. This is an excellent port to Android. Touch screen is working great, and there's even extra optional features. Thank you, thank you so much! |
|
[2013-08-12] A Google User: Best tactial magic game Great job, and thanks for making it free for everyone, maybe one day implement online versus? :) 5 * |
|
[2013-07-31] A Google User: Amazing Brilliant version of a brilliant speccy game. Completely free, add free & none of this freemium in app purchase nonsense. |
|
[2013-07-29] A Google User: Cheers for the reply... Also, how about a version of Chaos based on Knightmare, similar to Lords Of Chaos. :-D |
|
[2013-07-22] A Google User: Not fair Its as if the cpu gets more chance of "disbelieve" happening than human:( |
|
[2013-07-18] A Google User: Old school Loved this game as a little boy on my spectrum xz now just as good on my phone good work |
|
[2013-07-15] A Google User: Classic Loved this game in my younger days and still do |
|
[2013-07-14] A Google User: Brilliant! Couldn't ask for better! :-) |
|
[2013-07-13] A Google User: Fantastic One of my all time favourite games. Was the first game I looked for when I ditched the iPhone. Was pleasantly surprised with the new graphics, sounds and spells. All in all a great version of a great timeless game |
|
[2013-06-27] A Google User: Great I love classic gaming. Its exactly the same as the spectrum |
|
[2013-06-26] A Google User: Epic old skool Absolutely loved this on the spectrum. Played it to death with my mates. Loving it all over again. |
|
[2013-06-25] A Google User: Brilliant... Classic game, made even better. Please don't update the graphics! (Or if you do, have it as an option...) One possible improvement - descriptions of what spells actually do. When I played this as a kid I could never figure out what on earth "Dark power", "Vengeance", "Justice" etc did, and I still can't... |
|
[2013-06-23] A Google User: Was loving this game until update. Now when I play it on my nexus 7 it throws me out half way through a game please fix as this was my fav speccy game ever and you did a superb job re creating the original please please please fix thanks |
|
[2013-06-21] A Google User: Amazing, jullian gollop version Very close to Jillian gollops. One minor.... The sound effects are different ish. But this is the best remake. Well done full stars for my favorite game ever. |
|
[2013-06-17] A Google User: Probably my favourite Speccy game. I want to thank the developer as this is the best remake of Chaos I've ever played and updates are still coming.. Thank you. |
|
[2013-06-17] A Google User: Awesome port. Previous version didn't work for me at all but the latest update is perfect. Fantastic game, brings back a lot of old memories. My only complaint would be that I'd love to see the graphics brought up to date. |
|
[2013-06-17] A Google User: Lovely stuff! Spot on conversion of one of my all-time favourite Speccy games. |
|
[2013-06-17] A Google User: Best game ever Played it for hours on my spectrum and am now loving it all over again on mobile. |
|
[2013-06-16] A Google User: Strategy turn based game Classic game from the spectrum computer days. |
|
[2013-06-16] A Google User: Ultimate Gratitude The developer has so obviously taken an enormous amount of time and care to make this remake. I've not liked any other versions of chaos, but this is so well done I am absolutely amazed. Enormous respect and thanks to Quirky, as he clearly loved the original and wanted to do it justice. My nexus 10 is now finally worth every penny! Update: and now the magic now range has been resolved! Awesome stuff! |
|
[2013-06-15] A Google User: True to Speccy version with extras Love it! Needs a zoom function for smaller screens please. -from authour of Morkin 2 |
|
[2013-06-15] A Google User: Absolutely fantastic :) This is all I need on my commute to brighton everyday. The best conversion of chaos I have played. Julian wud be proud!. Many thanks. |
|
[2013-06-10] A Google User: Great retro fun Reliving my misspent youth on a smart phone! Fantastic game lovingly replicated! |
|
[2013-05-26] A Google User: Great Just like the old days! |
|
[2013-05-14] A Google User: Great For a mage like me this is great combat training |
|
[2013-04-02] A Google User: Great game Small footprint. Awesome game |
|
[2013-03-27] A Google User: Good needs work tho Idk what computer 1-9 means and it freezes when tapping how many players ! |
|
[2013-03-19] A Google User: Perfect memories. Hours I spent at my128k Spectrum with this title for £3 back then!!!! |
|
[2013-03-07] A Google User: Excellent An excellent and faithful reproduction of the classic ZX Spectrum game. Works perfectly on Nexus 10. The subtle enhancement of detail on the character models is excellent whilst still remaining true to the original. A triumph! |
|
[2013-03-02] A Google User: Excellent remake Part of the fun back in the day of home computing was that you worked out things for yourself, there wasn't always manuals or the internet you just did it, gamers nowjust want people to hold thier hand, no wonder games are dumbed down now. Anyway this is a fantastic remake thank you Richard. |
|
[2013-02-25] A Google User: Great - must have if you had this on Spectrum great remake, pretty much the same as the spectrum original, but slightly improved graphics. Loses a star because the controls can be a bit fiddly, with the touchscreen, but not really the fault of the game. |
|
[2013-02-10] A Google User: Amazing & Perfect If you need any info or advice PaulWArnold is my name on the blue bird network. |
|
[2013-02-01] A Google User: Phenomenal! A perfect blend of proper spectrum looks and sounds with intuitive touchscreen functionality :-) |
|
[2013-01-17] A Google User: Always loved this game I've always been a huge fan of this game, great to see it on Android. Hours and hours of fun. Many thanks for such a great port. |
|
[2013-01-14] A Google User: great game have to give it 5 stars. the diff between illusion and not is if u use dissbalive on illusion it kills the spell out right how ever to cast an illusion is easier to cast. if u dont want to cast an illusion u have to make sure u cast the right spell for the chaos level. Wow still love this game one of the best games ever made. |
|
[2013-01-14] A Google User: Awesome trip back in time! Cool game! Illusions will always cast (100%) but will be destroyed if someone casts disbelieve on it. Casting real creatures rolls the dice of chance - the darker the colour of the spell the harder it is to cast (see spell info) but if you do manage to cast a real Golden Dragon whooohooo!! One cool thing to know - The Undead cannot be attacked by the living [including wizards!] but the undead CAN attack the living. So Wraiths are really good as are anything you raise from the dead [using the 'raise dead' spell] - undead Golden Dragon ULTRA AWESOME!! Harpies are cool and much easier to cast, undead Harpy ACE! Some creatures you can ride - they take damage before you do. Some can fly - which gives you an advantage as they can attack from a distance and will only move after an attack if the defender is killed. If you end up next to an enemy your creature may become 'engaged' in battle, which means you can't move away until one of you is dead - careful what you walk past! Your target is always the other wizards - kill them and all their creatures die. Magic woods give you an extra spell if you jump in a tree (it vanishes eventually). Dark Woods can attack you if you are next to them. |

[2012-12-24] A Google User: Retro-tastic I spent many an hour back in the day playing this. Game play is as good as I remember it :) |
|
[2012-12-19] A Google User: Love this game Great port, remember the original back on the spectrum... Am I getting old lol :- |
|
[2012-12-06] A Google User: Awesome Awesome, awesome. |
|
[2012-12-05] A Google User: Brilliant Great playable game...simple and fun |
|
[2012-11-30] A Google User: Got this free with a game mag for zx spectrum when I was about 8. Loved it then, still love it now. |
|
[2012-11-15] A Google User: Excellent port of the 8 bit original Superb quick strategy gaming on the move, this deserves a lot more downloads and not just by those nostalgic for the original Chaos! Touch controls are well integrated, bugs fixed and an interesting option to add a few extra features. Highly recommended! |
|
[2012-11-11] A Google User: Excellent work Very nice version of classic Chaos with a few new ideas (optionally) thrown in). The game itself is perfection. One of the best multiplayer games ever to have been created and this is a loving re-creation. The graphics have been slightly updated, mostly just to improve the monochrome (per tile) graphics, but thankfully, it all just looks as retro as before. The controls have certainly been optimized for touch but I would like to ask the author to add a new control mode using drag events to move around the cursor around and tapping the screen (within the arena) to select the currently selected tile. On small screens, accurately clicking a tile is quite difficult and a finger can be larger than several tiles so after selecting a tile, I always have to check that I selected the right one before doing anything. In addition, drawing big boxes for "Illusion", "Real" and "Back" would be nice on the spell selection screen (in the original font). Its kind of confusion what to click at the moment. If the interface can be improved in this way, then this will likely become the de-facto best version of pass-and-play classic chaos for mobile platforms. Hats off to you sir. |
|
[2012-11-04] A Google User: Great port! |
|
[2012-11-04] A Google User: Thanks Thanks for doing these. Lost hours on the originals in the 80s and 90s |
|
[2012-11-03] A Google User: Love it Amazing. Just Amazing. |
|
[2012-10-12] A Google User: super cool banana tastic thanks dev you made me very happy. |
|
[2012-10-04] A Google User: I bow down to you oh Holy one Used to love this on the Spectrum. I can't believe you've made an Android conversion. Awesome!!!!! |
|
[2012-09-22] A Google User: Thank you, Richard Quirk For fans of the original, you must download this. For those who have never played, it can take a while to get into but it's well worth it. Chaos was, and still is, in my favourite video game of all time. This is now the best thing I will ever do on my phone. |
|
[2012-09-16] A Google User: Love this! Had this on the Speccy - Harrah! |
|
[2012-09-11] A Google User: Gooey blob-tastic Some work to do, no sound on my S2 for example, but please keep going. I will keep playing the original for now on Marvin but look forward to coming back to this in future and giving it 5 stars. Chaos is one of the top-rated Spectrum games of all time, by those in-the-know, and with good reason. Illusions will work 100% of the time but can be disbelieved by other players; the Disbelieve spell is unlimited and can reach any square on the board. Good job so far. |
|
[2012-09-07] A Google User: True to the origins Very nice clone of the original game. Best played with friends in multiplayer, as the AI is just as dumb as in the original version :) To Mike: casting a creature as illusion grants 100% success, but it can be destroyed by a simple Disbelieve spell. |
|
[2012-08-30] A Google User: freezes when sound turned on! should be 5 star but as I've said it freezes when I turn the sound on- the sounds are needed to turn me back into a 10 year-old |
|
[2012-08-21] A Google User: Decent game, but unless you played the origional (I didnt) good luck in figuring out the rules. It's no where on the web! But I'll figure it out! |
|
[2012-07-28] A Google User: Back to my youth Loved this in the day. Richard, illusions always cast but can be disbelieved. There are 2 cheats if I recall. Raise dead on a mount and ride you can then only be hurt by undead/magic weapons and second if illusion is hit by gooey blob then you destroy the blob your illusion cannot be disbelieved. |
|
[2012-07-09] A Google User: Favorite game growing up This game was a pivotal game for me growing up, and set me on the path to being a game developer, there was a small bunch of us who played it to death. Loaded via a cassette tape! ZX spectrum. Being able to play this on my phone and tablet is awesome and I can't thank you enough. Your the dude! |
|
[2012-07-06] A Google User: Retro perfection Not only does this capture the brilliance of the original, but it also adds to it with nice features like the Meditate spell. Magnificent. |
|
[2012-07-01] A Google User: Excellent remake! Very faithful to the original, and the optional new features are actually improvements. |
|
[2012-06-27] A Google User: OMG.. game play that is out of this world. This app is awesome. Top noch port by dev. |
|
[2012-06-09] A Google User: A real, and brilliant, retro classic! |
|
[2012-05-29] A Google User: A Pure Classic! I played this as a kid, quality. Thank you |
|
[2012-05-10] A Google User: Classic I actually downloaded a PSX emu just to play the original of this game. But this is much better i.e. it doesn't have the quirky controls that were required on the Spectrum version. My only very minor quibble is there doesn't seem to be any sound (on my phone anyway). Thank you so much for converting this to android and free as well. I would have paid for this even without the sound. Please somebody convert Laser squad or rebel star raiders. |
|
[2012-05-02] A Google User: Ian Mike the dufference between illusion or not is illusions always cast but can de disbelieved by other wizards. I had this when I had spectrum 48k and played it all the time well worth the price it was £1.99 then. Great conversion :)) |
|
[2012-05-01] A Google User: Retro! Awesome game, a total blast from the past! Is there any chance for an option to pick your spells for an interesting mod?! That'd be legendary! :P |
|
[2012-04-10] A Google User: Hours of fun I lost hours to this game back in the day - half of that was loading it from tape. Brilliant and faithful rendition of the original multi player wizard game. |
|
[2012-04-08] A Google User: Brill Ace, brill, fab and terrific. |
|
[2012-04-07] A Google User: Better than the original? This is everything that made the original sooo addictive back in the day. Works with touch screen which is great and everything is set up ready to just start in seconds. Now if only it took 10mins to load, would be perfect! |
|
[2012-03-31] A Google User: Great game. I found it frustratingly fiddly at first but soldiered on anyway. Now that I have the hang of it, it's become my favorite game. |
|
[2012-03-27] A Google User: Very Cool I like it! I never played this game before but it does bring back memories about games such as archon and the like on the commadore 64. Would be nice to know one thing. Whats the difference between casting an illustion or a not? I'm assuming line is easier or something??? Pretty awsome dude. Only issue is its way to hard!!!! Like holy crap. Haha |
|
[2012-03-12] A Google User: Davie Authentic version of the original 'Chaos'. Which came free on a magazine cover cassette :). Love the tweaked graphic and new spells.Dislike random crashes. That's the HTC desire for you :( |
|
[2012-03-05] A Google User: Excellent port Brings me back to my childhood, needs a manual though on spell effects, didn't know what half the spells did as a kid and now as an adult. Add what the spells do in the "examine spell" menu instead of just sucess rate and range. Do that and 5 stars, hands down. |
|
[2012-03-05] A Google User: Beats any other version Runs perfectly on an Asus Transformer and like having a Spectrum again |
|
[2012-03-03] A Google User: Nostalgiariffic! It's the same 'Chaos' thousands of 30-somethings lost countless hours of their lives to back in the 80s - why WOULDN'T you want this on your phone? |
|
[2012-03-02] A Google User: Superb Faithful reproduction. Anyone who doesn't like this simply didn't play it way back when. |
|
[2012-02-23] A Google User: Takes me back :-) Played the original version on the zx spectrum all those years ago, takes me straight back. |
|
[2012-02-17] A Google User: Don't download When people say they like this game, they say it ironic |
|
[2012-02-13] A Google User: Fantastic Love this game |
|
[2012-01-31] A Google User: The father of modern turn based games The most creative, addictive turn based game of its time. Chaos started the way for other top selling titles such as UFO enemy unknown. A must buy! |
|
[2012-01-21] A Google User: Well done! Always a great game, brings back the old spectrum days, Atari ST version is still the best though :-) |
|
[2012-01-09] A Google User: More nostalgia! Woo. This was one of my favourite games on the spectrum! Nice conversion. Brilliant turn based game. |
|
[2011-12-31] A Google User: Perfect conversion... ...of one of the best games ever made. Well done, Sir! Now, where's my magic wood... |

Only Improvement I could suggest is adding the vocal samples from the Atari ST version, although I'm sure there would probably be some legal issues with that! ;) |
