A one-hour spellpunk narrative adventure about pandemic, wizards, and first love.

A one-hour spellpunk narrative adventure game about pandemic, wizards, and first love.
Lauren is a conjuration junior at Crowstone Wizard's University who is bored and alone in the early weeks of pandemic lockdown. Unsure of what to do with her career after graduation, she faces a decision that will change the course of her life. Help to guide her through two days of isolation that could alter history itself — or not, if she doesn't feel like it.
Explore the neighbourhood of Crowhurst, a tabletop-roleplaying-inspired world of elves, goblins, and magic in its late 1980s. When the Spellphage begins under mysterious circumstances, causing those who are infected to lose their ability to use magic forever, Lauren must choose whether to retreat into comfortable hobbies or to do what she can to uncover the mysteries of her world. With its branching and dynamic narrative structure, there are no wrong choices, but no two playthroughs will be exactly alike!

Despite its serious subject matter, Spellphage is a lighthearted and cozy game. However, it is intended for adult audiences, and contains scenes that deal earnestly with topics such as racism, disability, transphobia, addiction, parental neglect, and pandemic.
