Overview

About this game

The Witch's Cauldron – a medieval witch simulator from the young indie team Harvey Games.

 

You’ll practice your craft in a town where good rumors spread just as fast as bad ones, with the latter quickly reaching the ears of inquisitors. Balancing your popularity among townsfolk and the inquisitors’ growing attention is essential for survival here. And if your witch’s intuition tells you the end is near, you can always find refuge in another town—there are plenty nearby.

But that’s for the future. For now, bards, vampires, innkeepers, and even the king himself come to pay their respects! Fulfill their requests, brew potions, but remember: every good or evil deed will bring inevitable consequences.

  • Over 60 unique characters, each with their own story and multiple playthrough options;

  • A vast array of potions, each capable of leading to a unique story outcome;

  • A variety of witch skins that unlock unique quests, present challenges, and subtly alter gameplay;

  • 6 main story endings that affect not only your life but also the entire kingdom;

  • Numerous nighttime events reflecting the outcomes of your choices;

  • High replayability, allowing you to explore the world, uncover the witch’s past, and understand the kingdom’s morals.
    Each day, locals will visit you. Some come seeking healing, others out of curiosity, and some with a desire to engage in darker deeds. Their fates are in your hands—it’s up to you to decide how to handle them.
    With your choice of potions, you influence the course of events. However, only a few basic potions are available from the start; you’ll need to unlock new and more complex ones by mixing ingredients or obtaining recipes and hints from NPCs.

    Unlocked potions, no matter how each story ends, will carry over to your next life cycle. The abundance of potions and story twists allows for a highly variable playthrough experience. Some endings, potions, and game mechanics will only be available after completing the main story once or reaching certain game events that conclude the story.
