Wizard
When a Wizard or Jester is played after a suit card, must later players still follow the led suit?
The official FAQ answers both the Wizard and the Jester case, and the rulebook's play section agrees.

Yes. Playing a Wizard or Jester does not cancel the suit led. Later players must still follow that suit if they can, or play a Wizard or Jester instead. A Wizard still wins the trick even though the others must follow suit.
