Why play it

Witchcrafty is a metroidvania platformer with magical action gameplay, exploration of a weird world, and adorable pixel art graphics. Help the little witch solve the mystery of strange events in the Kingdom, and defeat enemies with fire, lightning, and ice magic.

Story and worldbuilding

Get ready for an enchanted journey into a magical world with Witchcrafty, a platformer game with metroidvania elements! As you explore the Kingdom, you'll encounter a world of strange happenings, from predatory plants to warring factions of peace-loving peoples and even goblins in the mines. Join the little witch as she sets out to uncover the truth behind these events and unravel the mystery of her stolen mail. In this dynamic, action-packed game, you'll use your combo attacks, dodge, dash, and magical powers to take down enemies, incinerating them with fire, piercing them with lightning, or freezing them with ice. Your wand is more than just a magical accessory – it's a powerful melee weapon that can save you in critical moments. Explore magical forests, dark caves, icy mountains, and abandoned castles to uncover hidden secrets and treasures. But beware of the dangers lurking around every corner, from old tomes filled with new spells to goblin ambushes. Master new elements to unlock new paths and opportunities in this metroidvania game. Deep water will no longer be a threat when you've learned the power of ice magic, and lightning can even split rocks in your path. And with adorable pixel art graphics, you'll never have seen pixels so cute! With everything you expect from a fairytale game, Witchcrafty brings a touch of weirdness, featuring a little witch with an unhealthy love for explosions, a suspicious magic cat, and giant mushrooms ready to kick your butt.

How such a simple game manages to be so shockingly incompetent in so many ways is just beyond me. Hardly anything here can be considered as having so much as a semblance of value. I got this game for free, and I still feel cheated.

Witchcrafty has a great presentation but its gameplay keeps things just a little too straightforward to make it stand out from the crowd. It could have used just a few extra tricks to highlight it over the competition. In its current state, it’s very hard to recommend with some of its notable bugs, glitches and inconsistent difficulty. But if these get ironed out I can see this being a pretty satisfactory weekend game if you’re looking for something to pass the time or to share with the younglings. Witchcrafty drew me in with its art style but just left me disappointed for now.

Despite a cute look and budget price this Metroidvania adventure struggles a bit on Switch

Witchcrafty is one of the very last games of the PS Vita. The game is shipped unfinished, with tons of collisions, IA and damage bugs which change at every run. To enjoy this visually charming sorcery adventure, you will have to cope with the dark forces of randomness working against you.

Witchcrafty is rough, rushed, and unfinished... and yet there are sections where things work and it hints at an enjoyable 2D platformer.
