Our take on Bosorka
Players who rely on one spell or broom may hit a wall at the level-end bosses. Reaching those encounters requires preparation, while each broom brings a different specialty and skill to learn.
What is Bosorka?
Bosorka follows Horpyna, a young witch whose unfinished spell releases monsters from an ancient Grimoire.
Travel through several levels assembled from manually created sections, with each level set in a distinct biome containing hidden routes, secret rooms, and items to find. Fight enemy groups with spells that burn, freeze, shock, or summon frogs, and discover additional spells in concealed mirrors. At the end of each level, face a boss with its own abilities. Rescued demons can join as companions, while runes can be combined to alter the overall gameplay. Brooms provide more than transport: each has a specialty and a skill to master. The goal is to stop the Grimoire and prevent the demons from taking over the world.
