In Wytchwood you play as a mysterious witch living in an ancient forest. The fate of all the people and creatures living in the woods is in her hands—she can choose to unleash her wrath on someone or decide that not everyone needs to learn their lesson by being cursed.
Wytchwood is an adventure game utilizing an isometric view. The gameplay focuses on gathering and growing unusual ingredients (such as fear in a bottle, poisonous mushrooms or newt eyes), which are then used to make spells and potions using the crafting system. It's worth noting that the recipes for curses can be researched on your own. You can also explore the large fantastical world, full of interesting NPCs, monsters, and puzzles.
Wytchwood features nice, colorful hand-drawn visuals, which resemble illustrations from children's books.

Game Ratings for Wytchwood Video Game.
Nintendo Life: 7 / 10 by Oliver Reynolds
Wytchwood is a crafting game, through and through - and a good one. It smartly puts its focus purely on the act of gathering materials to create a wide range of objects, with little else to distract from the core crafting mechanic. It's backed up by a great soundtrack and a reasonably well-told but ultimately forgettable tale as you trawl through the various areas searching for ingredients. Trying to locate specific items can at times feel exhausting and drags down the pacing of the game, and the gorgeous visuals are unfortunately hampered by a slight frame rate jitter. Ultimately though, Wytchwood is a relaxing and addictive jaunt into the world of crafting.
FingerGuns: 9 / 10 by Kat Bullock
If you want to step in the world of fairy tale, gothic fable whilst throwing in crafting spells and a linear simplistic story set within an explorable world, Wytchwood is for you. Beautiful visuals and an alluring soundtrack. This game could be seen as mundane and repetitive, with little combat or puzzle, however Wytchwood casts a spell on the player that will have you immersed into the art of enchantment for hours.

If crafting, exploring and lots of humour are what you look for in a game, then Wytchwood is the game for you. I’ve certainly enjoyed my playthrough of the game. The story is interesting, the characters are cutesy, dark, and grotesque with humour sprinkled in for good measure and fantastic graphics to top it all off. Wytchwood is definitely one of my games of the year and it receives our highest score.
