A Journey into the Heart of Zikverländ

In Madzik, players are transported to the mystical yet perilous world of Zikverländ, where the celestial Moons dictate the flow of magic and influence the land.

Whether you’re bashing through enemies with Makino’s enchanted warhammer or casting devastating spells with Veroline, every battle is a chance to synchronize your skills and overcome the darkness corrupting Zikverländ.

Zikverländ awaits. Will you rise to the challenges and harness the power of the Moon Madness?
