King Tenlox the Long-Winded of Cwilia was turned into a pink blancmange at a party by the Lord High Wizard of Theodolia, Grizzell. As he had been nearly eaten, he was justifiably annoyed. So he told the L.H.W. of Cwilia, Spellchick, to zap Grizzell. Spellchick agreed. However, Grizzell decided to be hung for a sheep as a lamb and kidnapped Princess Caddelli, Tenlox’s daughter and good friend of Spellchick’s, for good measure. He protected her with a formidable array of foes: there were the brooms and wands which would gore people, the three radioactive rattlesnakes (who were called Snake, Rattle and Roland), the Fidgety Bridge which never keeps still, and of course the Star Cat (of Directory Enquiries, perhaps. *. to his friends) who has a long catalogue of crimes! (In-joke… Ask a Beeb owner.) Spellchick has to fight his way through SIX screens of this kind of thing for every one of the TWELVE castles owned by Grizzell, in order to rescue Caddelli. Phew. It’s not easy, let me tell you! (You start at Castle Diamond.)

Another thing that really makes Spellchick enjoyable for me is how it manages to stay interesting even after playing it multiple times. Many games feel repetitive after a while, but here, the experience still feels fresh because of the small details and different ways you can approach the gameplay. As you continue playing, you naturally start improving and understanding the mechanics better, which makes everything feel more rewarding. I also appreciate the balance the game maintains—it’s not too difficult, but it’s not too easy either. You can play it casually for a short break or spend longer sessions without getting bored. That flexibility is one of the biggest reasons why I keep coming back to Spellchick. Overall, it’s the kind of game that doesn’t just entertain you for a moment, but actually gives you a consistently enjoyable experience every time you play.
