“Live the day-to-day life of a witch/wizard student!” reads the official Steam synopsis. Whimel Academy is a cozy time-management dating simulation game set in a magic academia. From the 1st person perspective, you can study magic, develop hobbies and befriend (or romance) classmates in this wholesome and enchanting world!”

Set in the world famous Whimel Magic Academy, alongside studying for all your magic studies, you will also meet fellow students who you can make friends with or possibly even romance. During your six years at the academy, you will have to juggle studies and romance if you wish to live a fulfilling life.

Alongside money your parents give you each month, you will have to manage everything from your finances to your studies and hobbies to your social life. The slow-paced time management game will task you with living each day as you see fit. Whether that means taking classes, practicing magic or even taking on part-time jobs, each day can be planned to your liking.

With multiple career choices and endings and multiple characters to choose to romance, you will always be spoilt for choice in Whimel Academy when it enters early access later this year. Until then, you can add this upcoming title to your Steam wishlist so you don’t miss out.
