The heart of the gameplay lies in the choice of the side.

In principle, the three game modes offer the same basic formula, but organized in three different variants. Finally, we have Hunt for the old woman, a particular mode where the abilities of each team are deactivated, forcing the hunters to be able to face the witches only in hand-to-hand clashes. The second mode is called instead Reversal of roles, and allows witches to be in greater numbers than hunters however, in the course of the match, the cards on the table are shuffled, and the witch who is captured will turn into a hunter, reinforcing the enemy ranks. The first is called Hide and seek, and it is certainly the main one, in which the two companions, witches and hunters, are equal in number and skill. On the contrary, if the witches, or at least one of them, manages to remain hidden, they will be the latter to ensure the match.įrom a structural point of view, Witch It proposes three different game modes. If hunters succeed before time runs out (usually few minutes) to eliminate all the witches, they win the game. In the second half, however, they will be hunters to go into action, looking for for a longer period of time (and more played) than the old hags within the map. Essentially, the matches are structured in two phases: In the first part of the match, the shorter one, the witches will have to go in search of a good hiding place, thanks also to their magical arts. After a short tutorial that introduces us to this short mechanic, we will have to choose which side to start our game. The basic formula of Witch It, as we said, is really simple.

The final result? Let's find out together. After a long period in Early Access, since 2017, the game has finally presented itself in its final form, generating over time a small but tough community that, we believe, will be able to keep the title alive for a long time, thanks also to their commitment to create new maps and to an editor to create custom ones, starting from 9 base maps. The former will have to hide after having brought chaos, the latter will have to chase them to restore order, in a title with a simple but decidedly effective gameplay. Who among us didn't spend their childhood hiding or counting to ten to find their friends in one of the oldest games ever? Here, the boys of Barrel Roll Games, thanks to Daedalic Entertainment they took this old formula with Witch it and brought her into the world of Halloween: witches versus hunters. Reinventing hide and seek is no small feat.
