About The Apprentice

It's your final exam. Your master sends you through a portal to an unknown world. You cross the magical door and find yourself with a staff in hand and a mission: find the necessary runes to reactivate the portal and return home. In this alien world, your only tool is ingenuity. Investigate the fauna, explore every corner and experiment with the runes you discover. It's not just about learning new powers, but understanding them, combining them and discovering uses never before seen.


MASTER THE MAGIC OF RUNES

  • Discover new runes as you progress through your adventure
  • Combine how you use runes to create unique effects
  • The order of your actions matters: experiment with different sequences

SOLVE INCREASINGLY COMPLEX PUZZLES

  • Each obstacle requires a specific combination of spells
  • Learn to read the environment: visual details will guide you toward the solution
  • There is no single correct path: experiment freely

INNOVATIVE STRATEGIC COMBAT

  • Use your spells cleverly and strategically
  • Defeat enemies by thinking, not aiming
  • Learn patterns, anticipate movements and design your strategy

EXPLORE AN UNKNOWN WORLD

  • Interconnected world with multiple routes and secrets to discover
  • Dynamic camera
  • Each zone presents new environmental challenges and enemies
Your journey home begins here. Learning to master the runes will not only allow you to reactivate the portal, but also turn you into the mage you've always wanted to be. Are you ready to accept the challenge?

It's a bit clunky with the occasional bug like not being able to walk down the steps at the start (the tutorial tells you how to jump after you've already jumped off the steps), and it badly needs better player guidance, but it's alright. I'm still not sure I know how the game works after beating it, though.

es un juego muy interesante, he empezado a jugarlo y las mecanicas son muy sencillas y faciles de entender, mientras q los puzles son desafiantes. Un muy buen juego, aunque lo haya jugado poco es bastate adictivo y dan ganas de seguir, los diseños son chulisimos con un arte muy curioso
