About Sir-Tech
Founded in 1979 by Norman Sirotek and Robert Woodhead, Sir-Tech is a legendary name in the history of computer role-playing games (CRPGs). Based in North America, they helped define the RPG genre during the early days of personal computing, delivering deep, system-heavy experiences that challenged players' strategic thinking and resource management.
Their crowning achievement is the 'Wizardry' series, which officially debuted in 1981 with the genre-defining 'Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord'. This groundbreaking title established the blueprint for first-person dungeon crawlers and directly inspired the creation of the Japanese RPG industry. As the series evolved, it continued to push boundaries with incredibly deep class systems and intricate worlds, such as the masterfully complex 'Wizardry VI: Bane of the Cosmic Forge'.
Beyond dungeon crawlers, Sir-Tech struck gold again in the 1990s with the 'Jagged Alliance' series. These titles blended turn-based tactical combat with immersive mercenary management and distinct character personalities. Although the company ultimately closed its doors in 2003 (after releasing their swan song, 'Wizardry 8'), Sir-Tech's uncompromising approach to deep, rewarding game design left an indelible mark on gaming history.
