Once upon a time, in a small village nestled at the foot of a majestic mountain range, there lived a magical psych cat named Luna. Luna was unlike any ordinary cat; she had a special ability to read minds and understand the deepest emotions of those around her. Luna's fur was an enchanting mix of midnight blue and starry silver, shimmering under the moonlight. Her mesmerizing eyes, a vibrant shade of amethyst, could pierce through the souls of anyone who gazed into them. People whispered tales of her extraordinary powers, and some believed she possessed the ability to grant wishes. The villagers often sought Luna's company when they were troubled or needed guidance.
The villagers often sought Luna's company when they were troubled or needed guidance. They found solace in knowing Luna would listen without judgment and offer her feline wisdom. Luna would curl up next to them, purring softly, as her soothing energy enveloped the troubled soul.
This magical management sim is like Hogwarts Legacy meets Two Point Hospital
This Hogwarts Legacy-style management sim lets you build the magical school of your dreams, and it's out on consoles next year.
Spellcaster University is similar to Hogwarts Legacy in the fact it's set in a school where wizards and witches study. The only difference is, this time around you'll take on the role of director instead of one of the university's students. Just like other management sims such as Two Point Hospital, players will get the chance to build the school exactly how they want to and run the day-to-day operations of it.
This includes things like managing its budget, recruiting teachers, and expanding the school how you see fit. Players who want to embrace the darker side of magic (like our very own features writer Jasmine Gould-Wilson did in Hogwarts Legacy) will also have the choice to turn the school into a black magic academy, hiring teachers that specialize in things like necromancy and demonology.
More specifically, players will get to build their universities using an "original magic decks mechanism" meaning each game will be unique. The way it works is that players will have access to different decks according to the magic taught in the school, for instance, the Nature Deck will give you access to magical beasts, the Alchemy Deck will boost the production of potions, the Shadow Deck will give players a place to "discipline" the naughty students, and so on.
If you head on over to Spellcaster University's Steam page, you'll notice that this title actually released back in 2021. However, in early 2024, the magical management sim will be heading to consoles - including PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. A physical edition is also on the way, as well as a deluxe edition, but this is limited to just 300 copies per platform, so better act fast if you want to get your hands on one.
Need something to play in the meantime? Check out Let's School, another school management sim from the developer of My Time at Sandrock.
She would close her eyes and focus her powers, connecting with their thoughts and emotions. Through this psychic connection, Luna could delve into the depths of their minds and help them discover the answers they sought. One particular incident showcased Luna's extraordinary powers. A young girl named Maya had lost her way in the dense forest surrounding the village. Fear gripped her heart as she tried to find her way back home. Exhausted and frightened, Maya stumbled upon Luna, who had sensed her distress. Luna, with her intuitive understanding, guided Maya back home by silently communicating through their thoughts. Maya's trust in Luna's otherworldly abilities brought her safely back to her family's cottage. News of Luna's incredible feat spread like wildfire, and her popularity soared. People from near and far made the pilgrimage to seek her guidance. Luna welcomed them all, offering her support and compassion without fail. She became a beacon of hope and comfort for those in need. As Luna grew older, her powers became more refined and potent. She could now foresee future events and provide accurate predictions that astounded everyone. As word of her prophecies spread, Luna became revered as a fortune teller. People flocked to her to seek her foresight, hoping they could alter their destinies or find answers that remained hidden. However, Luna remained humble and continued to help those who sought her guidance. She knew that her powers were a gift meant to be shared, and she used them for the betterment of society. Luna never asked for anything in return, except for the love and care that every creature craves. And so, Luna, the magical psyy cat, lived the remainder of her days as a beloved figure in the village. Her mythical powers and compassionate nature left an indelible mark on the hearts of those she touched. Her legacy lived on through the stories passed down from generation to generation, reminding everyone of the extraordinary magic that once graced their lives..
