The Witch's Cauldron Prologue

Пока бедновато и никто меня на костре не сжег хотя я творил откровенную дичь саботаж и троллинг в любом случае залипательно визуально приятно если б еще и образ ведьмы менялся от ее поступков было б неплохо имхо ждем релиз,пока только на пару вечеров

Красивая игрушка. Варил зелья ради эффектов в котле :D А ещё тут можно конкретно так пакостить)

Сел глянуть, что за игра и залип на час. Милая, при этом неглупая игра

The Witch's Cauldron, bir ortaçağ cadısı olmayı konu alan rogue benzeri bir oyundur. Kazanınızı alın ve demlenmeye başlayın. Aşk, küfürler, kahkahalar, bilgelik satılık! Ne yaparsan yap, Kanunun tamamı olacak. En azından sorgulayıcılar gelmeden önce.

This game is so engaging! I didn’t expect anything from it, but it’s addictive. Random events enhance the effects of my actions and I had to adjust my strategy all the time, but their impact is consistent with the setting. So it works cool for immersion in the game! The art style is pure love! Looking forward to the release, wanna see all the endings!

Варите зелья. Помогайте или вредите. Не забывайте про баланс. Очень самобытный и красиво исполненный проект.

"The Witch's Cauldron Prologue" is is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product called "The Witch's Cauldron". The Witch's Cauldron is a glorified mobile app (that doesn't seem to have made it to app stores yet), a monotonous "potion making" clicker type game with barely animated 2D images, it's tedious and comes across as a minigame from some other real game that's been dumped on Steam because the app stores have QA departments where Valve has Steam Direct. But this isn't completely relevant because this is not The Witch's Cauldron, it's just an advertisment for it, so it's not correct to try to review that completely distinct product. We must instead review this for what it is... an advertisement. If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on Youtube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising. It's impossible in a general sense to recommend people should do that over playing real, full games on Steam, and that applies here with "The Witch's Cauldron Prologue" too. The purpose of this advertisement is to get you to shell out a whopping $8 USD on buying The Witch's Cauldron, and I don't recommend you do that either. Now on to pricing and value for gamers. As an advertisement, this is only free in the same way that adverts on Youtube and banner ads in your browser are. This is a game demo that's been dumped on Steam to advertise another Steam store page in the hopes of raking in some cash. Just because advertisements are free, doesn't mean they're worth your time. It's important to understand there's a formal process to create a demo/page for a game which hasn't been followed here: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/application/demos While it might seem like an inocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful. This advertisement is taking up marketing space and visibility that would be better made available to a developer that's done the right thing and created a full game. Instead, that visibility is given over to a demo/advert that's been published incorrectly and is polluting the marketplace. It's unclear if this mistake was made through incompetence or a deliberate intent to mislead gamers. Often developers may choose to incorrectly publish demo/advertisements as separate games as a cheap way to bypass paying Valve for marketing presence on the Steam front page, which may seem clever to them, but it's harmful behaviour and it's not good for gamers. In terms of public reception, this failed. There's over 130 million unique gamers visiting Steam every month. SteamDB showed the game peaked at [b]only 10 concurrent players[/b]... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Advertisements and incorrectly published demos don't add +1 to your game collector count, they aren't full games. It's impossible for me to recommend this incorrectly published advertising spam to gamers, you deserve better than adverts.
