GNT: A Witch’s Tale didn’t receive much love in the consumer’s eye. I hardly saw any advertisements or articles about it, and before I personally played it, didn’t even see many reviews go up for it. When I dug through those reviews, I saw a very dry, and overall unpleasant response to this game. I decided to disregard those opinions, and give it a shot myself. I am very glad I did. A Witch’s Tale brings the quirkyness of an NIS America title into a full fledged RPG (no tactics game, hurray!). A whimsical story and slightly cheesy cast are brought together in a beautifully illustrated ‘alternate reality’ of some of our favorite children’s stories. When it is all said and done, A Witch’s Tale is by no means the perfect RPG. However, if you are able to look past the flaws, you will find a decent RPG boasting plenty of game play hours and a touching story.
PSX Extreme writes: "We always get games that include burly male heroes or scantily clad female heroines, but what about classic characters of folklore? For example, how come we don't have more games about witches? A central theme of dark magic and evil for almost as long as anyone can remember, these ladies of the night have a longer and more storied history than vampires and werewolves put together. Hence, witches should make for an absolutely fantastic foundation for a video game, if only because of the concept behind the controversial females.
Enter Revistonic's Witches, which began its life in the middle of last year as Project Witches and recently resurfaced with a shorter name and more details. The project still doesn't have a publisher, but once they land one, the game should be released for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC. Let's take a look at how this potentially promising title is shaping up…leather, magic, feminine curves and all."
Currently in development for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, Witches is set in a medieval landscape which is under the dark shadow of The Beast, a demonic being determined to enslave everyone and generally act like a real jerk. That's where Gwen comes in, "a sultry warrior that still resists his dark will and leads the rebellion against his satanic power."
Witches pits "sultry girls against satanic monsters," and invites gamers to "Let's (sic) yourself go in this dark medieval narrative and enjoy the contrast between sensual beauty and sinister horrors. Direct the beautiful but dangerous Shadow in a spectacular fight against hordes of repellent deformed creatures."
