Welcome to the enchanted lands where magic is real and flourishing! Build your very own magical academy from the ground, hire the best and the worst teachers that the magical world has to offer. Manage disasters and celebrate your victories in this brand new enchanting tycoon game!

Build your school

Create the magic school of your dreams! Use money and resources to create new rooms and hire staff, but be wary of trouble and irresponsible adults ruining your establishment. Solve the oddest mysteries and help your students achieve their best (or at least a pass) at school!

Build rooms and customise them to your heart’s content with just a few clicks in our creation tool! There are over 10 types of classrooms there to be created, but watch out for overcrowded classes and teachers lacking the skill to tame a hoard of students!

Do not worry! Every teacher and student will learn in due time! You can also pause your game and just hire a new banch of less incompetent ones! Or speed up the game and manage incoming disasters on the go! You (literally!) have all the time in this world!

Hire the staff

There is a big variety of teachers you can hire in your brand new school. Their abilities, skills and teaching power will determine the fate of their students and the amount of… misadventures they might have during the class. But not to worry, with every lesson they learn something on their own and they come closer and closer to becoming the best teacher!

Not only the teachers are vital to life in the academy, you need crystal engineers who will manage and fix your power sources. There are also janitors who will take care of the mess after a failed alchemy lesson or a ghost roaming the school.

Your trusty staff will take care of the most unusual occurrences that may happen in your school and celebrate graduations of your students with the proper fanfare!

Meet your students

Your students are not only the source of your pride, but also your income! The more students the more money, but can you manage that hoard of teenagers?

Every student has a different set of skills and dreams, so having a lot of classes will let them flourish! Your best students will become your pride and joy (and also a great source of school’s prestige)!

Let them study day and night, but do not forget to build dormitories so they can also have some rest, and enjoy watching their first attempts at wizardry!

Students are divided into classes by colour so it is easy to recognise where is which class and how are the students by the neatness of their uniforms.

Let the magic guide you!

Industriworks

EA: Industriworks is currently a very rough Minecraft clone, without sound or any of the mechanics that made Minecraft fun. I don’t think it’s worth paying for right now, but it might improve. 2/10

Does this game even work? I can’t even manage to play any mode…. Devs haven’t released any news from what I can see either

Real player with 1.3 hrs in game

Junk - why is there even an option to buy this game as a gift - yeah maybe for your mother in-law but come on Devs - this game is nowhere near early access and when I saw nowhere I mean it’s like some school project. Nothing works, and when you can build a camp to generate soldiers if you meet the enemy on the steps then they stay there the entire game. What were you guys thinking when you released this, it’s 8 Euros, what’s all that about. I really really want to support smaller game companies and startup indie type initiatives - but meet us at least half-way and give us some feedback and something to work with. Really sorry Devs, but you don’t deserve my money for this piece of JUNK!

Golems TD

Golems TD

The very short version is: So many things are wrong that I cant complete the tutorial. (I’m not even sure its possible to fail it, endless wave thing) Feels like early alpha on kickstarter.

I will not refund it, because someone accomplished his goal and made a game, he deserves something for that.

Ok so, it would be wrong to offer nothing but criticism, thus ill start with the good.

Good stuff: Behind the clumsy interface, there is a potential depth of gameplay here. The idea of alternating between heroes and towers is not bad, and crafting crystals mid fight as well as non-tower structures (gathering, fusing) could have some weight in forging a deep strategy later on.

Hidden Valley Tower Defense

Hidden Valley Tower Defense

Very good game!

I hope there will be some updates in the future. This game still has the potential to evolve but it is playable.

Real player with 73.9 hrs in game

Game is fun but the dev hasn’t responded to anyone since December 2020. There are lots of things that need to be worked on. Save your money unless it’s on a super sale.

Spellcaster University

Spellcaster University

This game straddles the line between game and simulator, and it might leave people looking for either one disappointed. I, however, love this game, so I want to talk about it a bit.

The gameplay almost exclusively involves making choices from a mostly-random selection. You draw from a deck or speak to a faction, and then you choose the option that seems to serve your needs best. You have a limited time to make these choices because the Lord of Evil makes you move along almost as soon as you get rolling. The overall idea is to emerge from the storm of randomness with a healthy selection of graduates who buff your stats for the rest of the campaign. Ultimately, you run out of places to hide, so you have to find a way to survive the final level.

Real player with 74.8 hrs in game

Charming if a bit clunky Hogwarts Sim Tower, card-draw based room choices. Can generate different mana as resources, which allow you to draw more cards of that mana type.

The mechanics are enjoyable, and the game is a great calm, casual experience. The campaign could use a lot of adjustment, it can feel a bit arbitrary and the only real direction is either provided through trial and error or community written walk-throughs. There isn’t particularly a feeling of progressing difficulty or even a real link between the areas as you progress. Challenge cards (You can optionally set a challenge at the start of the campaign, and completing it will unlock the card for future runs) are a cool way to provide goals, but they feel like a side piece rather than a main progressing thread. Some functionality/depth seems underwhelming on it’s impact on the game. Cool ideas, but they don’t actually end up doing a lot for you if you spend time manage them (ex. get 3-5 school “houses”, set priority to different types of magic for the house, drop the people gifted in those types in those houses, stop thinking about houses. There’s rarely a benefit to tweaking house settings beyond the initial setup).
