Our take on Book of Shadows
Players seeking many different outcomes may bounce off at the ending structure, which provides two conclusions. Those expecting the story to remain centered only on the library may hit a wall when local residents’ problems become part of the progression.
What is Book of Shadows?
Book of Shadows tells the story of a dark wizard who discovers where the Book of Shadows is kept after searching for it throughout his life.
The book lies deep inside a library and cannot be reached by dark forces, so the wizard tricks the player into retrieving it. Players assist local residents, complete tasks, solve puzzles, and follow the mystery surrounding the book. After finding it, the player decides what to do with it. The game includes two endings, with the journey shaped by the player’s actions and choices.
