Our take on My Darkest Witch
The endless-wave structure keeps the focus on repeated combat and incremental upgrades, but gives up the structure of a conventional campaign. Progress depends on surviving escalating attacks rather than moving through a sequence of authored stages.
What is My Darkest Witch?
Play as a mage of the Order of Light in an arena survival game against waves of infected, heretical creatures.
Enemies grow stronger as each wave advances, requiring changes to positioning, upgrades, and combat tactics. Develop magical abilities, defensive skills, and the character itself through progression choices. Equip mystical weapons with different strengths and playstyles, then modify the arsenal to match combat preferences. Battles take place in dark arenas where layout and changing conditions affect movement and survival. The game combines fast combat with decisions about upgrade selection, weapon use, and positioning as the mage faces an ongoing enemy assault.
