Wizard of Oz: Beyond the Yellow Brick Road (Riz Zoawd) hands-on preview

The Wizard of Oz: Beyond the Yellow Brick Road, known as Riz Zoawd in Japan, hurls the player right into the action by cutting the whole tornado incident down to about 30 seconds. It cuts out munchkins and falling houses as well, getting Dorothy’s fine ass right to work on the Yellow Brick Road.

Retailers take leak, brick road becomes yellow

By Heath | July 18, 2009 at 4:29 am

Both Amazon and GameFly have seemingly jumped XSeed’s announcement gun and leaked that Riz Zoawd is coming stateside, under the new title of The Wizard of Oz: Beyond the Yellow Brick Road. Both list late September release dates, but historically, retailers don’t have a lot of accuracy on that aspect of this stuff, so it’s best to wait and see. Heck, without word from XSeed, this news is only 91% official anyway. Not 90, because that’s way too low, but we’re not so presumptuous as to say 92 per cent. Ride that 91. There’s an early version of the cover art below, and RPG Land has a bunch of coverage of this game right here.

Riz Zoawd: screens and info

By Heath | June 30, 2008 at 4:49 am

Apparently saving your game costs HP and/or money in Riz Zoawd.? Also, Dorothy will be exploring Oz in all four seasons.? Below the initial misc. screens and art lie screenshots of three: Spring, Summer, and Fall.
