#SPELLCASTER UNIVERSITY FACTIONS HOW TO#

You need to build a school to train mages. Talk of fighting orcs and exploring dungeons and defeating evil had me worried it would be a stressful game and that I’d have to do combat, but it’s not like that.

(It looks much better than in my pictures since I had to size them down, trust me!) It was even fun to just zoom in sometimes and watch what all the little characters were doing. And the adorable messenger guinea pigs that get launched via catapult. I loved all the fun and cute detail, like all the different job options students get when they graduate (based on skill, personality, and species requirements). This game reminded me how fun magic schools could be. When I realized this was a management sim + deck building game, rather than something more focused on building and characters, I was disappointed, but I ended up having so much fun! It’s such an addictive game. You can get more info and download the game here on Steam or here on the official website! Long Review:

#SPELLCASTER UNIVERSITY FACTIONS HOW TO#

Will you turn it into a black magic academy, with the best professors of necromancy and demonology? Or a place in harmony with nature to train druids and shamans? Or why not train adventurous mages, offering them options to learn how to fight and be stealthy? But this will require surviving the ruthless attacks of the orc tribes and the controls of the education authorities.

Build your school, manage your budget, recruit teachers. In Spellcaster University, you take on the role of the director of a magic university in a colourful world of heroic fantasy. Spellcaster University is a cute, addictive management sim + deck building game in which you run a magic school by placing rooms, choosing staff and students, deciding what types of magic to prioritize, and cultivating relationships with local factions in order to meet your objectives and defeat the Lord of Evil.
