Witchy Business

Nice idle shop sim with witchy vibes

My Score: 7/10

For such a simple idle game, this is actually amazing. I played on cosy mode and it took a few hours to unlock most things except max rep with all witches, which will take a little longer. I love the choice of items and ways to get the various ingredients of different types and tiers. I love the music and the aesthetic of the sanctuary and the crafting room, even the coven.

I never actually figured out how to make mystery potions, so i was limited to selling the same starter potions. I know you can unlock it by trying different combinations of ingredients, but this always results in a dangerous experiment. Would probably be better if there is another way to unlock potion recipes.

The only feedback I would give is that on the steam deck, everything works well in touch screen mode, except the curses and poisons, which require drawing a line on the screen. This is almost impossible to do with a touch screen, maybe it is easier with a mouse. Making this easier would make the game more accessible. Luckily there's a way to bypass it once you reach max friendship with a few specific witches, but this take a little time.
