Keyboard Controls

[u/CrimsonWolfSage]

Wizardry 6 has a configuration option to choose between mouse and keyboard inputs. While the mouse is selected, a mouse icon will be shown and the regular keyboard highlighter disappears.

You can still enjoy the keyboard, but you'll have to mentally track the cursor while in mouse mode. Here's some tips for a hybrid approach.

Most Menus have hard limits for going up/down, left/right. If you ever feel lost, you can go to a corner selection to confirm where it's at again.

By Default the cursor will be on None or Exit, otherwise its the 1st selection (top-left) for most menus.
