Quantum Witch
Critic Reviews for Quantum Witch
Quantum Witch is an intriguing, deeply personal adventure that uses humour, empathy, and the celebration of choice to tell a story of emancipation. Some elements work better than others, and the imbalance between exposition-heavy and abrupt scenes can be jarring. Nevertheless, it is an enjoyable and jovial experience that will hopefully give courage to players who are wrestling with the same uncertainties Ren (and Jay) experienced. To quote a powerful Lord of the Rings queen: “Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.” So, it earns the Thumb Culture Silver Award. Just keep it away from the faer, they’ll eat anything!
As debut games go, Quantum Witch sure isn’t afraid to take risks. It takes some pretty adult themes, combines them with incredibly witty writing and a really fun art style, and leaves you wanting more when you’re done.
Quantum Witch tells a proudly queer and humorous story about complex themes such as religion, manipulation, divinity, and freedom. It could have offered more in terms of gameplay, but the multiple narrative paths and its adorable aesthetic left me more than satisfied.
