Why "Wizordum" instead of "Wizardum"?

Curious.

The developer is from Slovenia and works with many people around the world (from their website) - that brought me to the idea to play with the Google Translator a bit...

First I tried it the normal way, then spelled backwards - then this popped up:
мудрозив - Mudroziw, meaning "wise" or "got wise" (recognized as Ukrainian Language, could also be another kyrillic language).

I don't know if that really is the source of the name - but even if not, it is a nice wordplay.

Now that's some explanation Skydart but it's not even close to that hehe.

First, Wizordum doesn't have to do anything with the word Wizard. Sure, it's close but I wanted something that sounds like a fantasy name of a place from the 80s fantasy book novel. Wizor-Dûm, an ancient place of magic.

Wow!
Awesome!
Thank you for making this game and I hope to see more content.

Thanks for response. It's very suggestive of "Wizard" even more because 'you play a mage'.
