My Aunt is a Witch

About

My Aunt is a Witch mixes narrative-driven gameplay with spellcasting challenges in a quirky magical setting. You play as Thomas, a teenager dealing with family turmoil who finds refuge in his eccentric aunt’s home. The story unfolds through dialogue and choice, interrupted by potion-brewing mini games that test timing and ingredient knowledge. While the plot leans on familiar coming-of-age themes, the whimsical world building and deadpan humor give it personality. The game’s charm comes from its offbeat characters and lighthearted take on magic. Aunt Alice’s no-nonsense attitude and the sardonic talking cat provide running gags that balance the story’s emotional beats. The puzzles are simple but tie into the world’s logic, requiring players to experiment with ingredients and sequences. While the 8-hour runtime and basic art style won’t wow everyone, fans of casual visual novels with a sprinkle of gameplay often praise its cozy, absurdist vibe.

Storyline

The protagonist, a boy named Thomas, has a difficult life. It gets even worse when his father marries a woman who simply can’t stand her stepson. His whole life changes with a sudden trip to his aunt, whom he visited once many years ago. Now he is definitely distracted from all sad thoughts, because his aunt Alice is a real witch who has a talking cat and a bunch of magical things, and her house is not exactly the right place for little boys. But despite all the dangers, Thomas accepts the challenge and firmly decides to reach the heights of potion-making and to reveal all the secrets hidden behind the magical barrier.
