Play Witch's Wish Online

Witch's Wish came out for the Nintendo DS in 2009, published by Natsume Inc. It was one of those quiet, quirky titles that felt right at home on the DS, a system that welcomed touchscreen experiments and smaller, more personal adventures. You don't hear about it much, but it has a dedicated little following.

You play as a young witch tasked with healing a fractured town. The core of the game is casting spells by drawing specific symbols and combining elemental ingredients on the lower touchscreen. You explore the town screen by screen, talking to its divided citizens to get quests, then venture into surrounding areas to gather materials or confront magical disturbances. The pacing is deliberate, more about thoughtful puzzle-solving and careful spellcraft than fast action; a mistimed scribble can fizzle a spell entirely. It feels like quietly untangling a knot, one careful thread at a time.
