Title
Visually a very interesting and advanced game, it requires you to wander around a castle with three-dimensional platform blocks in order to find 40 ingredients for a magician's potion. Enormous potential but sadly, all the game does with its mechanics is leave you scale platforms and doing time-precission jumping, oftenly using objects from your inventory as lift, but you repeat the same tedious process hundreds of times for it. It lacks elemental variety, the inventory items don't help you or give you power-ups, and all the enemies here are only there to be avoided, you can't actually fight them.

Similarly, the werewulf transformation is pointless. It does nothing in the game except trigger the magician's cauldron to attack you. If it had given you an attacking move that'd be swell, but like this it's like the werewulf mode doesn't even exist.

A promising game that had fantastic ideas, but wasn't bright enough to know what to do with them.
