Little witch in the woods is a very charming game. It's a laid back enough that you don't feel incredibly rushed to finish quests! There's also no serious consequence for staying out past 2am. With that said, there are a few things that i've found a little wonky [all be it is going to be released in a few weeks so don't take what i say as the end all be all lol.] - Controls are honestly really frustrating. I'm hoping we can button map once full release is out - playing on p.c has been a challenge and not a fun one. - My computer meets the recommended requirements but loading in takes almost 4 minutes at times. I'm not sure why, but hopefully that is fixed upon release! - The dialog i've encountered so far is very charming/funny/rich. It's very read heavy, so if you don't like games like that you might not find that part of the game as fun. I personally enjoy it a lot! - Inventory space: it is honestly really, really, REALLY tough. Stacks only go up to 20 and you quickly find yourself running out of space at home & while foraging. It's definitely a bummer, but i also see it as another fun challenge. [Make what you can and sell. That's what i've been doing at least.] -User interface: Uh, i've got preferences and i'm not against theirs so to say, but definitely a learning curve at first. Perhaps that's the click happy in me. :D I WANNA PLAY - oh woops, i should have read that haha! So far the story line progression feels pretty smooth, just a lot longer than i thought it would be, for the reasons above. I'm not holding any of the things i've said above against the dev's though, as i know they're about to release and that release will really be my make or break for the game once i've played a bit more. But hey, about 9hrs in and i'm enjoying it so far. 7.5/10 **Edit to update since official launch** I've requested a refund - i'm actually really sad. I can't say i'd recommend this game anymore sadly. Once it was launched i really dived into playing and added some more time into the game. Boy, that was a doozy. I expected some major improvements and got progress locked as well as losing a lot of progress due to reloading older saves. "Fine, i'll just wait for updates! after all it just launched there's bound to be some little bugs" i thought. Well yeah, there was. But then it went from 1 update, to 2, to sometimes even 3 in one day. Yeeeesh. So i decide to wait a week, let them work out the problems and come back to a gaming experience that'll hopefully run much smoother! No. -Now the game takes even longer to launch. -UI for p.c playing has not changed. Playing with a remote barely works at times [and yes, i definitely checked my remote & even launched through steam with the remote on big picture mode on other games - the game just tells you which key to press and not a button. Very frustrating] - Stacks are still the same, storage is definitely still very challenging & buying storage is still quite expensive in game. - Quest progression has now had some problems with identifying whether or not the quest was complete, locking your save and forcing a reload to an earlier save due to patches. Which means wasting time. :( - Some quests need clear instructions, i've had to turn to reddit more times than i care to admit just to complete a few. Might be a translation problem & for that, i won't complain too much, they are trying, but it does take away from the game for me. TLDR: Wait a little longer, and check back. They're trying to fix a lot of problems and it will absolutely make playing past the second act less fun, and more frustrating.

Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn and cauldron bubble… I love me a good witchy game!! This is one of those games that I have a love/hate relationship with. It is brimming with so much potential. It genuinely has some enjoyable and unique gameplay aspects that make it shine. You play as a witch apprentice foraging items to craft potions for quests and objectives. This game does a great job at elevating the foraging experience. In addition to just collecting items, you also have to research them and build on your encyclopedia. This not only gives you handy information (such as what is needed to collect that item or where you can harvest it) but there are little perks to unlock by completing research objectives. It’s a similar concept also found in ‘Research Story’ but it adds a rarely seen layer of complexity to break up the sometimes monotonous nature of simply collecting and crafting. Unfortunately if you are not in the right mood or mind set, the lengthy (often unrequired and filler like) dialogues can interrupt the flow of things. While I appreciated the tutorial, you sometimes feel like you are just reading and clicking through so much text that it becomes disruptive. The controls seem to run smooth on the steam deck for the most part but the potion making can be a bit uncomfortable and janky until you get the hang of it. Took me lots of failed potions and trial and error to get it to work. Once you figure it out, it’s relatively smooth sailing but I had to visit the forums for help because the tutorial was lacking in this one aspect. The art style and vibrant colour palate is my favourite thing about this game. The characters seem cute and endearing. Story is nothing mind blowing but I’m still excited to see where it goes. Seems very simple in nature yet cozy. If you have the patience to make it through the intro, I feel like this game has promise and offers variance for the price tag.

Good that it's finally released. A charming cozy game for a good price. There are still some lingering Quality of Life issues. 1. Save files menu is still difficult to navigate and makes keeping multiple different saves for "guest" players like younger relatives annoying to juggle. 2. No auto-text advance. This is kinda unacceptable for how long EA ran. Having to mash buttons to advance is bad UX that needs to be resolved. A minimum "hold to advance at end of line", needs to be implemented. I'm still having to use Steam's external binding options to make a Turbo button that does my repeated button clicks. 3. Performance issues on Steam Deck. It needs the following settings: Windowed, 1024x576, Pixel Perfect. Otherwise the frame rate drops well below 60, and it doesn't look "crisp". Can still chug unnecessarily in places.

This is honestly the game of my life. I don’t usually write reviews, but I have to recommend it. What makes it stand out from other cozy/life-sim games is the way it handles characters. In many games of this category, there are so many people that I end up judging them by appearance and never really learn who they are. Here, the smaller cast means I can truly get to know everyone in detail, and that connection makes the world feel alive and meaningful. Especially the Everyone's Stage quest, it hit my heart so hard. Seeing the effort I put into the village pay off actually made me cry.

20 hours at review time, taking it real slow, could get farther if you were direct. Doing quests to get villagers and making a lot of potions. No bugs, no issues with controller, very text dialog heavy so lots of reading, luckily the story and characters are great. Don't know/care about any early access drama or future updates. the game is what it is today. And it is cute pixel art, adorable interesting characters, fun story dialog, entertaining game play loop of gather, make potion. But yeah even I can tell where some things are just shortcuts - the vendor just standing in your yard made me laugh though. My main up/down is "is this worth the time and money?" and, yes, so far it completely is. Hope it stays this good throughout.
