A MAGIC tech support sim where you fix the MAGIC problems plaguing these MAGIC objects like the incredible MAGIC tech wiz you are.
This one's a big thinky game. At first it felt really overwhelming and confusing, but I managed to figure it out after a bit.
Very gorgeous artwork that felt just as magical as the concepts the game presented. The music is great, I love how it seamlessly changes based on who you're currently helping.
I thought it was a little harsh how you can lose health just for asking the wrong questions, instead of just failing the instructions like I first expected. It was also stressful not being able to regenerate health, as I lost 2 hearts on the first one and had to play the rest of the game without making a single mistake.
As for the writing, I really, REALLY like the characters on display here. Each of them feel different than the last and are wonderful in their own ways. The differing ways they speak are a great way to keep the game from feeling tedious or same-y. I don't think I got all of them, only 5. Didn't see that little red mage guy on the left of that image over there. The dog was pretty funny.
It's a real smartie-pants kind of game. Gonna need a lot of brain power (and notepad) to play. May cause headache.
Man, I love this game! It hardly feels like it was done in 3 days for a game jam at all. Maybe I'm just a nerd, but it's fun figuring out all the rules and stuff. I'm gonna make an Excel sheet to keep track of all the clues better and try to meet all the clients!
Hehe, we LOVE a spreadsheet!! We've realized since uploading our latest post-jam patch that we still managed to overlook some combinations that you just have to gamble on re: smells and glows, so I anticipate there'll be some of those in our own future soon as we try to refine the design and make sure everything is actually solvable. Thank you so much for playing our silly game and leaving a comment -- so so glad you enjoyed!!
Oh, yeah! I'd thought that was intentional tbh, like to ensure you wouldn't just go on forever if you're good at the game. In my last run the garlic scent led me into that gamble like thrice, and I ended with a streak of 10. It was fine in the end though, since I was taking a break from work and was kind of pushing it lol
