Spellcaster University

A lot of fun strategy, conserving resources, laughing at what students become, and exploring the unique areas. The game was really easy to get into and learn, and once I got the hang of it I was totally hooked. I was pleasantly surprised to find out there was an end to the campaign mode, my only real complaint is that I wish there was more of a post story/sandbox mode that just let you explore and play with what works and what doesn't for the type of school you're building. Overall a solid 4.5/5 stars, I would really recommend it as a chill game with a lot of fun content to play around with. Hoping to see a sequel or a DLC in the future for more!

It's ok as a clicker-like casual game. I didn't feel much control over whatever is happening, both due to a lot of different counteractive elements at play that mostly average out and because of the sheer number of rooms, teachers, students and randomness, that makes going for a specific strategy unreliable. Didn't feel particularly attached to students or the university either since there is a lot of them and not much personality to them. Game also sometimes lags hard when you have a lot of students and zoom out, but a reload helps and it didn't happen too often. Alt+Tab switching broke the game a few times (it didn't want to return as a top window and had to be reloaded with losing progress), but it only happened if I did it for a long time and didn't pause before. Otherwise, it runs ok. While you need to make decisions often, I didn't find most of them particularly important, at least on the default difficulty. There are quite a few positive and negative perks that your university, students and teachers can have, but they are tedious and hard to stack and use to your advantage and can be ignored on average. For example, it rarely matters if your teacher reduces students' boredom or hunger and every positive trait is usually compensated by some negative one. I ended up paying attentions to a handful of perks that I found impactful and largely ignored the rest. Replayability is technically there, but despite there being 5 different types of magic, specializing in a different set doesn't actually matter that much. And you can usually get several types at once. The game is divided into more or less timed levels (you can make the timer go back with certain mechanics, potentially prolonging it indefinitely or at least quite a bunch, but I used it only once during the campaign) with some objectives to complete, bonuses and debuffs carrying over to the next campaign levels and each level restarts with a new university. Overall, a pretty relaxing game with a few bugs, some decision making and some flavor. If you don't expect much from it, you will probably be satisfied. There is some replayability.

Love it. Big fan. Wish there was an endless mode. So many options but none of them feel bad or poorly balanced. This somehow scratches both my magic itch and the same itch that, like, Civ scratches.

Lo había jugado hace mucho tiempo y por lo que veo sigue igual, recomiendo comprarlo en oferta. El juego de ritmo rápido es sobre la gestión y construcción de una escuela tipo Hogwarts. Puedes personalizar el escudo y nombre, crear casas, y personalizar habitaciones y alumnos. Lo más divertido para mi, son las misiones para los alumnos, explorar mazmorras, torres antiguas, cuevas, etc. Lo malo es que son un tanto escasas.

Leider fehlt dem spiel die Abwechslung und der Tiefgang der Anfang ist nett gemacht aber meins ist es nach knapp 21 stunden nicht wirklich da gibt's einfach bessere spiele

It was kinda fun for one run, but was dragging by the end. Its mostly just watching the game play itself. Most decisions I made either seemed like they didnt matter or it was obviously which choice was best
