Mind Over Magic (v1.0)

Mind Over Magic is a colony simulation game set in a mystical world where you build and manage a magic school teeming with arcane secrets and dangers. Developed by Sparkypants and published by Klei Publishing, the game tasks players with designing and optimizing every aspect of their academy—from constructing classrooms and dormitories to personalizing interiors with a variety of furniture and decorations. As headmaster, you must nurture powerful mages, guiding their education and growth by customizing their daily routines, assigning teachers, and equipping them with magical gear like potions, relics, and wands. The students’ training is crucial not only for mastering combat spells but also for enhancing their ability to contribute to the school’s operations, striking a careful balance between survival and progress. Beneath the school lies the perilous Underschool, a sprawling labyrinth filled with dark magic, eerie creatures, and hidden treasures. Exploring its depths offers valuable rewards but also brings escalating dangers that threaten the academy above. Players can raise mystical beasts and even dragons, which provide rare resources and unlock new quests beyond the school grounds, adding layers of strategy and adventure. Magical constructs called Quilted serve as undead helpers, performing essential tasks like resource gathering and repairs, while flight mechanics using broom racks improve campus navigation. With a richly detailed world blending base-building, exploration, and tactical progression, Mind Over Magic challenges you to master the arcane and protect your school from the encroaching threats lurking beneath the surface.
