Weird but neat how the build interface does 3d spacing by using camera angles. I like the premise!

Cool game, but not that easy to get into. The game feels like it needs a tutorial/a narrator (e.g. the ghost that introduces the game) that talks to you and informs you of what's going on and helps you with mistakes, events etc. Also feels like maybe the rooms shouldn't all be available to see at the start (super confusing, especially when they require very specific setups), but instead be introduced as you progress. This would make it a much more gradual introduction of mechanics and buildings, allowing the player to get better at a rate Matching the games complexity.

How interesting. I've noticed at least one other game going for the Oxygen Not Included style camera view and game genre but this is the first I've seen that is 2.5D with an extra axis for building stuff.

I love this game, just bought it a few days ago, and already played 120 hours, simply can't stop, but stopped when finished one dungeon xD! I wish they expand this so it would be replayable and maybe more challenging, research progression is too fast compared to dungeon exploration and building the school. Would be awesome if they kept the skill tiers, but added 2 more levels of wand progression 4 and 5, and obviously more items such as robes for students and teachers to wear. It would make much more sense to expand research, especially for justifying building Mages Tower or Hermitage, otherwise, by the time I can build it, I completed all the research, so expanding research options for all elements, I think is really important here. Same with classrooms, by the time I got the specialized classroom for a specific school, I completed the dungeon, so expanding wands to higher levels and creating a bigger dungeon would be a good patch at this stage of the game. It just feels like this game is not finished, feels more like an alpha with great potential but lots of work needed. Would love to work on improving it or if someone can share with the devs the ideas that would be awesome! Just a few ideas for expansion to the game in the future are building 2 other dungeons at the end locations of mists and creating camps for (travel) inside or outside of the dungeons and using special items to ward off the mist in an area where mages station, Maybe finding ruins of other schools and exploring them as dungeons, room by room? As well as adding new clothing/accessories options, would make an amazing expansion to the game. Expanding learning skills a little would be great too. Adding a limited story would be amazing too, for milestones. Such as completing dungeons etc. I just feel like the game is too short and too easy with dungeon exploration and has too few research options at this stage of the game, to make trying to build mages hermitage. Would be great if there were two more races maybe and a little bit more control over their looks? Maybe outfit? And would be cool if you could resurrect the founder and build it in character creator and train him? Maybe by making Dark Mages using ritual? For the number of ghosts, it would be awesome to have them used too in more than one mean, maybe similarly as founder ghost used as helpers around school? Water and wind mages should also have more use, as it stands they are almost useless, maybe make wind mages move faster or howl more than one item? And water mages do some cleansing rituals or create a well or water source (another resource to manage) that they can manage and water could improve being full for longer and if you create other dungeons in a mist they could create water jugs for travel? I have sooo many other ideas but this would be a great start, otherwise, I can't really justify buying this game for this price as it just feels incomplete and short.

Similar vibes, wildly different approach. I think I like this one since the individual characters feel more meaningful, and it's nice to have full control over my school's layout. Spellcaster University did have a neat classroom buff/perk system IIRC that I'll miss when playing this one.

The core gameplay loop feels very ONI, which is not bad, because ONI is amazing. At the same time, I’m waiting to be awestruck by that Klei magic I have come to know and love. Think I’ll let this bake a few years in Early Access before pulling the trigger and buying into the game.

To me it feels like more time in the oven is needed, but also; this is a Klei game, there's already a lot to learn and later on even more so. I'm gonna get the basics down now and come back when they've added more.
