About The Glitch Witch

✦ AI summary

The Glitch Witch is a retro-future puzzle-adventure where you help Rosette repair mysterious old-world technology through circuit puzzles while uncovering whether she can prove her power to a community that fears her as a witch. Navigate a pixel-art town, solve interactive electrical puzzles, deepen relationships with townspeople, and decide if friendship or power matters more in this atmospheric tale of progress versus tradition.

The Glitch Witch is a retro future puzzle-adventure that takes place in a future devoid of functioning technology. Rosette starts repairing broken technology in a series of circuit puzzles and is shocked to discover the power contained within. Music from a box? Light that fits in your hand? She’s thrilled by the possibilities, until townspeople start accusing her of witchcraft.

Not one to give up easily, Rosette sets out to change their minds. Will friendship be enough to open people’s eyes? Or will she ultimately have to choose between her power and her community?

In The Glitch Witch you can navigate the town to investigate various locations and objectives as Rosette, uncovering puzzles, gaining insights into the mysterious technology of the past, and a deeper understanding of the townspeople and their respective backstories.

Features

  • Explore the tech power from Old World stuff! With various forbidden pieces of electronic products scattered around the town, you can follow Rosette to investigate these items and try to use your wisdom to fix it and recreate the legend from the past.
  • Physics as Magic - interactive puzzles! To repair these Old World relics, you need to solve electrical circuit puzzles with the help of Sluggo, our cute electronic friend. With interactive color settings of the puzzle, you can easily get started to solve them.
  • Prove the goodness of your power. As the story progresses, the complexity of the puzzles and the depth of Rosette’s friendships gradually increase. Use your imagination to solve the puzzles in your own way!
  • Become part of the community. You will navigate the town to investigate various locations and objectives, uncovering puzzles, gaining insights into the mysterious technology of the past, and a deeper understanding of the townspeople and their respective backstories.
  • Atmospheric experience with retrofuture aesthetics. Our 2.5D environment with pixel elements will give you an immersive experience. The old-school electronic devices and characters designed in the past century fashion also constructed a retroactive art style that can bring you back to the 80s.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
