Start your life as a witch and travel central Europe's nature with your cottage. Roam forests and swamps, collect plants, craft magical supplies for villagers and customize your ever-growing home.
Play as an aspiring Slavic witch on her journey to master the art of witchcraft while travelling the countryside with her companion cottage: a colossal, ever-growing chicken-legged home that players must build, customize and expand over the course of their adventure.
Venture across an enchanting European landscape with your living home, upgrading it with additional rooms, furniture, items and mementos that you find on your journey, while collecting ingredients to produce medicine and magical goods to aid – or curse – local villagers.
Design and decorate your walking house’s interior with complete creative freedom, taking on quests to unlock new decorative items and make it your own. Form an unbreakable bond with your cottage as you explore new landscapes together, guided by Baba Jaga on your apprenticeship across villages, mystical forests and more.
Master the powers of witchcraft and use the help of your familiars to gather hard-to-reach items, while collecting plants, crafting magical supplies, and discovering mythological creatures.
