Witch You Want

About

Witch You Want casts you as a last-minute hire at a chaotic apothecary, helping a brash, unreliable witch brew potions for an upcoming festival. You’ll sort ingredients, avoid explosions, and navigate awkward small talk while racing to meet her impossible deadlines. The witch’s mix of arrogance and cluelessness creates a push-pull dynamic, with dialogue choices shaping whether you’re a grudging ally or a put-upon sidekick. The tone leans into slapstick magic mishaps and dry humor, balancing absurdity with low-stakes charm. The game’s appeal lies in its brisk, self-aware satire of visual novel tropes and the witch’s gloriously terrible leadership. While the story is brief, the writing leans into witty banter and exaggerated character quirks, making the short runtime feel packed with personality. Early feedback from indie circles highlights its refreshing lack of pretension, with many noting the witch’s “horrible but lovable” energy as a standout.
