About this game
Misspell is a 2D Metroidvania, set on the remote island of Melanor — a place where ancient magic and a mysterious disaster have changed everything. After a strange mineral wiped out a whole civilization, only ruins, echoes of the past, and a strange power remain.
You play as a girl whose arm is wrapped in a living magical vine. It absorbs energy from artifacts and transforms into new abilities, letting you reach new areas and fight in new ways.
Travel through hand-drawn biomes — from foggy banks to snowy mountain peaks. Discover mines, forests, temples, and ruins full of traps, secrets, and enemies hiding pieces of the story.
Your vine evolves with you — improve skills and collect ancient artifacts that will help in fights with various creatures and exploration of the island.
Meet different characters with their own stories, and make choices that change the island and the people who live there.
