The life simulation game "Witch on Fuen Island" will officially release on February 27th.
Fern Island Witch is a warm open-world life simulation game developed by Enjoy Studio from Poland. Recently, the studio announced that the official release date has been confirmed and it will be available on PC via Steam, GoG.com, and the Epic Games Store on February 27th, moving out of the early access phase.
The game was initially launched in May 2023 as an early access title. It was funded through a Kickstarter campaign with 686 backers pledging €21,388 to make the game a reality. Despite the relatively small funding at first, Enjoy Studio successfully added a significant amount of content and features during the early testing phase, including new regions to expand the game world, numerous new quests and activities, and improvements to enhance the overall gaming experience.
About the game:
Welcome to the mysterious Fern Island! It is a lush temperate island that houses three great magic cultures – Boran, Apatut, and Kuqkwa – and the bright-eyed apprentice witch Abrill. After crashing on the island during her journey to the Magic Academy, this young witch makes the most of her limited resources while still aspiring to become a competent witch. The witches at the academy don't just wait for her arrival; they decide to seize this opportunity to test Abrill's mastery of magic and reveal the secrets of this misty island.
But remember, becoming a witch on Fern Island is not as simple as passing exams! It's essential to figure out one's place in the world, make friends, and most importantly, constantly search for new discoveries.
Game features:
Master Witchcraft:
- To graduate, fulfill the academy's expectations of being a witch guardian, not just attending boring classes. Engage in work while learning!
- Grow herbs and (magic) plants, raise unusual animals, and conduct magical experiments on various creatures.
- Develop Abrill's unique witch brand by customizing her witch hut freely through style and practicality.
- Of course, being a witch is not just being a farmer! Brew magical potions in the hut, create mysterious talismans, summon cute and useful familiars, and finally, perform complex rituals to control the weather using primal magic.
Did we mention you can control a cat familiar too?
Explore the Island:
- Between conversations with the academy's crystal ball, explore the island at your own pace.
- Learn magic passed down through generations and unravel the stories of the witches who came before.
- Walk and explore the island, ride Tzoru or fly on a broomstick – as long as the guardians are satisfied with Abrill's progress.
- There's more than just history to discover! Fern Island has always been enveloped in magic.
- Not only understand the island's history, but also familiarize yourself with its countless magical flora and fauna, insects, and beautiful landscapes.
Build Lasting Friendships:
- A witch is not just an expert in magic and the mysteries; she is part of a community!
- Immerse yourself in the cultures and societies of Boran, Apatut, and Kuqkw, learn about their traditions and beliefs, and participate in festivals to ultimately find true friends among dozens of people.
- Unlock the stories and secrets of each new friend, solidifying Abrill's status as a unifying force in the community.
- Help the locals with magic, solve their problems, and leave a lasting impression on everyone, eventually earning the title of The Witch of Fern Island!
