Witch Magic Academy

One glance at Witch Magic Academy drew me in with its mystical potion-making challenge.

It’s like going back to school, only it’s a million times more fun, and nobody’s going to turn into a real-life toad. The game professes; get it right or who knows what you’ll turn into! There was something magical about adding just the right herb and watching my potion bubble to, hopefully, perfection. And collecting my shapeshifting successes as collectible cards turned out to be an unanticipatedly addictive element of my witchy studies. The gameplay stem is mesmerizing, and with Halloween creeping up on us and my inner alchemist feeling the itch to try out a new brew, I found the hours to be well spent. I know because I’m not alone; I’ve noticed online chatter at how remove players feel as though they're creating their own magical beasts, almost ‘90s virtual pets but with a spell-casting twist. While it may not be a walk in the park, it's absolutely spook-tacular for budding witches and wizards wanting to master the cauldron before All Hallows' Eve.

Meanwhile, for bewitched folks looking to bond with broomsticks and bubbling potions, I’d point my wand over at Bubble Shooter Pro, where the aim is true and fair flicks and swipes can yield massive pop satisfaction in a spellbinding run through levels.
