As the mysterious old witch of the woods, you will explore a strange countryside, collect magical ingredients, brew sorcerous enchantments, and pass your twisted judgement upon a capricious cast of characters and creatures.
After all, how will they ever learn if you don’t teach them the moral of the story?

"Wytchwood may only be a 10 – 15 hour romp, but those hours are packed to the brim with exploring, crafting, puzzle-solving, storytelling, world-building, and more. A subtly...

"I’m used to crafting-themed games being huge, sprawling, self-guided odysseys, so compared to them, Wytchwood is a bite-sized revelation. It’s bleak, it’s funny, and it has...

Surprised at how much I’m enjoying the game so far. The story is intriguing and I love the humour. Feel like it’s a bit of an underrated gem.

I adore the art style and for me it plays a big part into why I loved this game. I get lost in the art that I hardly have time to think about how many different fetch quests I've done. I found the side stories just as charming and entertaining as the main story.

A gorgeous game with good writing and underwhelming gameplay consisting of repetitive crafting and fetch quests that lacks QoL features (like the need to select basic tools manually every time to use them that makes inventory management a chore). However, its world is charming enough and the story is fun enough to carry it, so it's a decent choice for someone who like gathering and crafting in games. About 10 hours long.

The humor in this game is just on point. Living in a swamp, far away from everyone and your "best friend" is a slightly blind goat? Kinda realistic. You're wearing a tea pot as a hat? Who is to anger a witch and risk a curse? Obviously nobody. All in all, the game has a fun and sliiightly weird story and I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Absolutely gorgeous game, worth it for the art alone! It's a bit repetitive (fetching items left and right), but discovering all the characters make it 100% worth it. I'd love if they made another one! Very relaxing game.
