Ahaha, you did the right thing! The fact that the spell wasn't in the book is a bug, I'll have to fix it after the Jam...

Awesome game! Love the art! Initially didn't notice the vandalism part, then I was able to escape. A replay button when you lose could be useful though.

All the proprieties-ingredients and spell are random for each run so it can be played multiple times!

Yes, all spells and ingredients/proprieties are choosen at random each time, but the final spell should be from the book, that's a bug, sorry.
I'll fix it after the Jam, until then I suppose everyone should use the docx to look up the final spell...

Damn! I think many people are confused on how you're suppossed to play the game. Normally, you don't really need to fill the whole book (that's extremely statistically unlikely without the hints), you just need to gain enough information to pass the final test. The hag also tries to help you, so if you've only discovered a few properties, she'll give you a one-ingredient ritual. If you've discovered more, she'll give you a two-ingredient ritual, and only if you've found most of the properties she will give you a three-ingredient ritual. In fact, you could still resurrect the cat even if you used only random ingredients. 
If the goal is to maximize points/full entries the game becomes more about figuring out the best way to use its mechanics. You can learn indirectly the proprieties if you do the right guesses (there are only two instances of each propriety for each "level": primary, secondary, tertiary), also all the spells the clients ask need more ingredients near the end of the month, and the book contains all the spells that they could ask so you might use this information to fill out a specific propriety or "level" because you might not be able to do it afterward (making even the first spells not just random ingredients).

Of course, I completely understand why some people might find this overwhelming or tedious. It's a puzzle game, and this kind of gameplay isn't for everyone.

Woah! This was beautiful! The real wrong instructions are the instructions of life.
Where I can find the final song? hehe...

Nice game! It could be greatly improved, it's not very clear which ingredients correspond to which colors. The music also doesn't loop.

Thanks for the comment! Regarding the last part (maybe I'm the one who doesn't understand what you mean), the book the witch leaves you automatically keeps track of every wrong guess, the red crosses indicate a property that an ingredient doesn't have.

Thanks, now I see the options but it still makes me choose all of them: each time I try to save the changes it tells me to select a box until I have selected all of them.

The submission form for Themes doesn't show any option except Wildcard! To submit I had to pick all the boxes

Thanks for the review! You are actually right, both me and my friend were stuck with the start of school so we weren't able to work a lot on the tracks, my friend specifically came up with lots of cool ideas but scrapped all of them and settled for some reason on the last day on the incomplete Caravan. In a similiar way I had to wrap up Glass Desolations early.

Still, thanks for your two cents!

Awesome game! I really love it, but I don't think it fits too well in the theme... Still really lovely and cozy

Nice game! It was really easy to win without firing

Awesome game! This is actually a nice break from the other games!

Awesome game! Really enjoyed it!

Awesome game! As others have noticed the casino seems to be out of place, and in general I feel like this game could have been used for most of the initial themes proposed for the Jam...

Awesome game! It's really cool that you can play other games on the phone!

Nice game, though it seems incomplete!

Nice game! I'm not sure about what the fortune cookies actully do.

Nice game, it still needs some work though! Why the cover of the game/submission is different from the actual game? It has a different title and things that totally aren't in the game.

Ahaha, yeah, I think it's just me missing the damn button by some pixels on the side

Awesome game! Sometimes you can see behind walls (especially when you fall to death)

Nice game! Sometimes i SLAM a button but it doesn't work...

Awesome game! Really nice graphics and gameplay

Nice game

Awesome game!

Incredible game! How you can not like it

Nice game!

Nice game!

Cool game!

Nice game!

Awesome game! It was extremely relaxing and stressing at the same time! 

Nice game! Really funny, but there seems to be some bug (maybe it's only me): when the game is over and the leaderboard loads the moment there are all three podiums it freezes (I've played the Web version)

Cool game!

Nice! I couldn't help the poor Leeroy to feed his family but it was enjoyable!

Nice game! Easy to understand the rules, though some cards image aren't totally clear

Thanks! I was planning on adding an interactive tutorial but didn't make it on time...

Nice work, there seems to be this bug where even if you die you can just wait the end and win.

Nice game! Love the hand-drawn style, though maybe it would have been better if the images were scanned instead of photographed

Nice
