I’m first-name based in the incoming Witch Games community, and I’m also adding it to my Steam Witchlist, so Reka only has a first name. German studio Emberstorm Entertainment shared a short clip of its debut project on Twitter. I am posting to
Early snippets of Reka shared by the studio include making potions in her home, covering her cottage with witchy clutter like books, herbs and cats, and assisting locals in magical rituals. includes.
“The world of Reka is based on Slavic mythology, specifically the mythology of the Slavs of East Germany,” explains Emberstorm’s Tobias Hermann. Leka’s countryside is covered in explorable autumn-colored fields and forests, dotted with small villages and wildlife. It’s the fantastical past of Emberstorm’s house in Berlin.
“We also implemented a number of Slavic witchcraft lore. As a result of the combination of the two, you as the player character become an apprentice to Baba Jaga, inheriting her chicken leg house and traveling the world. Then she works as a wizard: a traveling witch who fulfills contracts to help or curse people and mythical creatures.”
Emberstorm wasn’t shaking the chicken house. I think it’s important to be careful.They are gigantic leg. Yes, your spooky cottage travels with you.
You made many great guesses! 😊This chicken leg hut is your very own home and you can build it however you like! 🐓🏠 #gamedev #witch #indiedev pic.twitter.com/pV8KqbEIyXAugust 11, 2022
You inherited a small fortune. You’re in charge of decorating, collecting crafting materials, and helping your neighbors. Is this another town life sim? not really. It’s not even a survival game like Valheim. Hermann says that Reka’s cottage building system is about aesthetics (the cat-covered house is certainly an aesthetic), and that Reka has no combat or survival elements.
Instead, use your craft station at home to prepare balms and salves and rituals to appease ghosts and allow the spirits of animals that have died in the woods to take over. Of course, for your problem you get more decorations.Occasionally, you’ll also find these collectibles inside hidden chests in the woods. latest clips (opens in new tab)Reka’s snappable building system looks pretty generous with placing parts like roofs and windows.
I myself am not a certified modern witch chick.But as a woman who played Sims with only buildings, stayed home in Valheim and worked on building a small village, and had to be dragged out to fight each boss, the goals of cozy crafting and decorating were me. I’m into things like potionomics (opens in new tab) I’ve been soaking in the early access potion crafting for a few hours. (opens in new tab)But the truth is, I don’t want to be a bosswich entrepreneur who follows capitalism. I just want to be a creepy woman in the woods who hangs skulls on the walls and scolds ghosts and such.
Emberstorm is not ready to reveal release plans. And what? ” About demos and early access and all those questions. In the meantime me and all the other witch game girls will have to keep an eye on it. steam page (opens in new tab) and another leka’s twitter account (opens in new tab) For more witch aesthetics this fall.
