About Witch It
Barrel Roll Games released Witch It on October 22, 2020. You can play it on PC, PlayStation 5, or Nintendo Switch. This indie shooter puts you in a magical world where humor meets survival. The core setup is simple. One group plays as witches hiding from hunters who must track them down to save their villages. The game runs in both single player and multiplayer modes so you can practice alone or squad up with friends. It launched over four years ago but still holds its own against modern titles in the genre.
Gameplay
Sessions last anywhere from a few minutes to longer matches depending on the mode. Hunters use gadgets like metal detectors, motion sensors, and magical orbs to scan the environment for witch signatures. You might spot a flicker of light or hear a suspicious noise before revealing a target. Witches spend most of their time casting spells to hide in plain sight or blend into objects. A typical minute involves crouching behind a bush while checking your radar or sprinting across open fields to escape detection. The controls feel tight for movement but require patience when hunting since rushing usually leads to failure.
What Players Think
The PlayPile data shows mixed reception with an IGDB score of 69.7 out of 100 based on 19 ratings. Players spend a surprising amount of time here despite the niche appeal. Completion rates hover around 5.9% for achievements, meaning most people quit before finishing all challenges. Only one person ever unlocked the rarest achievement called "Go big or go home!" which has a zero percent unlock rate. Community moods lean toward frustration during intense hunts but shift to laughter when witches pull off clever tricks. Review snippets often mention the steep learning curve for new hunters who struggle to find anyone.
PlayPile's Take
This title costs $16.99 at its cheapest point on Green Man Gaming. It fits players who enjoy asymmetric multiplayer games where stealth matters more than aim. The 41 available achievements offer little incentive since most remain locked forever. You should play this if you want a chaotic party game with friends rather than a serious competitive shooter. Avoid it if you expect polished mechanics or high replay value after the initial hype fades. The zero percent achievement rate proves that some content is simply impossible for average players to reach.
