Oshawa, Ontario (NotSoft) May 1, 2010 –
After nearly 5 years since the start of development, Oshawa's
premiere independent game studio NotSoft has finally released
Wytches Brew – their pagan themed foray into the casual games
market.
Wytches Brew features five modes of play, including an epic 52
chapter quest that has the player share a year long journey with 3
Wytches as they travel around their island brewing up magical
potions for those in need. With four other play modes, including
timed modes and modes with relaxed rules, Wytches Brew offers
something for casual gamers of every skill level.
Unlike your typical Match 3, Wytches Brew challenges the player
to make their matches in particular sequences as outlined by the
game's recipe book. Success creates magical brews. Too many
failures and the cauldron will overflow, ending the game.
"We normally develop action games" said Steven J. Hill (aka
bignobody), the man behind NotSoft, "but about 5 years ago we
decided to challenge ourselves – could we make a casual game
that we would want to play? Given the amount of times we were
testing out a particular feature only to find ourselves absorbed in
the game, I would say we succeeded."
