This week, Wyrdren Games has shown off its upcoming magic school visual novel Spellbound: The Magic Within at W.A.S.D. in London.
Sean @ FG: An inclusive, magical visual novel with optional romance, Spellbound: The Magic Within is an engaging title that's missing a few genre staples. The Finger Guns Review.
Op-Ed: Some high quality showings from Interactive Fiction/Visual Novel games at EGX 2021 hinted at a very good year for the genre.
Big respect to the developer for deciding to make a game and learn programming to put it together all by themself.
They makes a big deal about many of the characters being trans or non-binary, sadly it seems theys emphasising this so publicly is because she wants praise for her support of these communities, thus meaning that they's promoting her social activism rather than gameplay quality and story which seem less important to them.
This is a Harry Potter game for the people who don't like J.K. Rowling and don't care about quality.
