Investing into a candy estate seems like a good idea at first, but in the ends it's a nightmare to manage! I really like the mood of the game. From the fairy tale book at the end to the drawing style, and the children voices asking for candies.^^ It has a lot of charm! The mouse controls work really well too! I did not understood at first that the witch was following the cursor without the need of a click, but once it was assimilated it was really smooth to control. The game itself is pretty fun, and more challenging that it looks like. The main problem I had was not being sure if I could use the cauldron of not yet, but since there is an audio feedback it wasn't that bad. Overall I had a great time playing it. Nice job!
