Interesting concept, I feel it might've have been nicer if it had like a combination list on the side of the screen or something, so the puzzle would be trying to work out which spells to go for instead of what cards make spells.


Managed to beat the game, but by entirely relying on buying the 10 cost stack and selling anything that didn't sound like a castable spell. Probably not the intended win route :v.

That said, it would have been nice to know which ones were castable, I had a lot of cards lost to the void that is the tomb where they aren't cast and I can't pick them back up.

Good work team!

Thanks for your feedback!

We were rushing to get a combination list on the side, but there were too many combinations and 13 minutes left to submit the game.
If we work on the game a bit more, we will be looking into adding a list somewhere, plus more combinations and spells.

The 10 cost stack was the only way I found to beat the game as well. It's 100% not balanced! Whoops! Haha.

EDIT: So the cards are colour coded as well, we could have made them a bit more noticeable though.
Grey = Ingredients
Green = Materials
Blue = Spells

Hi that was a project that I worked on for a programing class a couple years ago. The code for it was my work but all the 3D assets we had were provided to us to make the game.

Thank you! We worked way too hard, but it was worth it in the end :)

Very fun game! The mechanic is interesting and the game is surprisingly challanging, at least for me. Didn't manage to beat it yet, but attempting to do so was a lot of fun! Well done :)

Thanks! It's most certainly not balanced at all haha, but i'm very happy you had fun!

glad you enjoyed it! I definitely made the recipes a little hard 😅. My covid brain was not working properly. Even we were unable to beat the game!
