Witch of Ice Kingdom Ⅱ

About

As a little witch, you'll use magic and summoned pumpkins to combat foes in turn-based battles, while uncovering hidden events and exploring dangerous locations. The game takes a unique approach by disabling physical attacks for your character, emphasizing the use of magical abilities. The plot revolves around the aftermath of a devastating war between witches and the ensuing chaotic weather patterns, "Crazy Winter," threatening the mainland.

The story of "Witch of Ice Kingdom II" is a fairy-tale-inspired narrative featuring a good witch and a prince on a quest to reclaim a throne, which, while enjoyable and endearing, suffers from clumsy translations that detract from its overall impact. Despite some cringe-worthy dialogue, players find the story engaging and appreciate the accompanying music and graphics.

- “Translations aside, the story was actually sort of endearing.”
- “Great story, amazing music, good graphics, and great characters.”

- “Compared to its prequel with the classic RPG Maker sprites, this game has a unique art style which is a nice breath of fresh air.”
- “The graphics are somewhat different from your usual RPG Maker fare, although it would probably be better if they were consistent with themselves, since half of them were grid-based and half of them were isometric, or attempted to be.”

The gameplay is considered repetitive and lacks challenge, particularly after initial grinding, similar to its prequel. Players find it generic, with a notable imbalance in character utility, where the spellcaster dominates early on while the physical attacker only becomes relevant later in the game.
- “The gameplay isn't much of a challenge after grinding a little at the start, much like in the prequel.”
- “Gameplay-wise, it's kind of boring and generic, with Nonoly as a spellcaster who is much more useful for most of the game, and Gind as a physical attacker who becomes very useful towards the end of the game.”
