I imagine the game manual DRM becomes useless the moment someone posts the rune code online (or just writes it on the top side of the ripped disc). Then again actual DRM is useless the moment it's cracked, so.

I'm curious if there was an in-universe explanation for why the enemies became immune to (physical) attacks? "You tried to summon the spirit of magic but you fucked up the incantation so you summoned Beelzebub and now he dwells in every enemy."

I think some games had in universe explanations but not Wizardry

It's not easy to describe runes in plain ASCII text, and I assume there's enough of them that it'd be a pain to ask your friend to scrawl them all on the disc. Actually it'd be epic if you scrawled all the runes on the disk and then it started glowing eldritch red...

I tried Ultima IV once (free on GOG) and it didn't make any sense to me
