About the Game
Magic is not an art or religion. Magic is a craft.Experience an amazing and unforgettable adventure set in a dark fantasy universe!
Spellcrafter is an RPG game with deep tactical turn-based combat and a unique spell casting system. Explore the magical world, collect gold, interact with NPCs, take quests and make moral choices! Recruit heroes, assemble and summon powerful troops and send them into battle!
The unique feature of Spellcrafter is the spell casting system. The game recognizes the sign you draw on the screen and automatically chooses the appropriate spell from the spellbook. If you don’t remember the correct sign you are able to consult the spellbook, but beware! Reaching for the spellbook takes additional time and the quicker you cast your spell, the more powerful it will be!
The game is divided into 3 acts. Each act tells a part of a compelling and magical story about the nature of reality, power and morality. Additionally, each act features 3 levels with a different setting and a different playable character (human, necromancer, elf).

Excellent game ! *Highly* recommended !
Below I'll explain where the SAVEGAMES are kept.
And give some help for winning too.
**This was a total surprise** as I didn't expect much given the old reviews.
BUT, evidently the devs worked hard and fixed and upgraded beautifully the game, as I found it engrossing and found *zero* problems. Not one.
Well, only a couple time the girl was stuck, in one I backtracked and there she was again.
The other time I had to quit, and reloading the game, there she was ok by the hero.
Yes, it gets hard eventually, I don't know why many devs shoot their feet upping the difficulty.
Why, all devs, why ?
But I use Cheat Engine with all my games:
In this one, the combat timer is FLOAT, search 1.0000 before entering combat, then in combat let the red bar decrease, pause, search Decreased Value, with pause still on, search Unchanged Value, unpause and let it decrease a 2nd time, search Decrease Again, repeat, etc. the desired address always end with an 8.
Once found, copy below and put 1 in the value, and freeze the value ticking the box.
Gold, 4 bytes, exact, 99,000. The address always end in 0.
Number of troops, 4 bytes, exact, never search in combat, do it when buying troops, address always end in 4 or in C.
Accepts up to 360 troops for each type of fighter (didn't try for more, unnecessary).
Life of the hero, 4 bytes, ok to search in combat, but unneccesary with many troops.
Sadly, when changing levels or teleporting (not that many times really), as usual, you may have to search again the values, as sometimes they decrease and reset.

Properties,
"Address URL" or somesuch = steam://rungameid/315680
Take note of that number, 315680, identifies the game.
SAVEGAMES :
Run the game, play a little,
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\appcache\stats
Order with date decreasing,
Zip these 2 files to for example, Spellcrafter SAVE 1.zip or rar :
UserGameStats_(your gamer id)_315680.bin
UserGameStatsSchema_315680.bin
The game doesn't indicate when it saves, but does it regularly.
Just save those files whenever you want, or when changing levels or scenes, etc.
Overwriting the actual 2 files with old ones, take you to the moment in the game when you zipped the 2 files.
Information / Review English
Spellcrafter is a tactical strategy game developed by Jujubee S.A.
Gameplay
The magic system is one of the special properties of Spellcrafter. It recognizes characters that the player draws on the display and automatically selects the desired spell from the magic book. If you don't remember the sign, you can always look it up in the spell book. If you leaf through the spellbook, it takes longer, and the faster you cast a spell, the stronger it is. The game is divided into three acts. Each act tells part of the story about the nature of reality, power and morality. In addition, each act is divided into 3 levels with different settings and different heroes (human, necromancer, elf).
Pro
+ good approaches
+ Achievements
Contra
- lots of bugs around
- boring story
- Punctuation doesn't always work
- opponent too strong
Conclusion
Spellcrafter has many good approaches, but unfortunately the whole game seems unfinished and therefore takes all the fun out of it. No recommendation.
Information/Review Deutsch
Spellcrafter ist ein taktisches Strategie-Spiel, welches von Jujubee S.A entwickelt wurde.
Gameplay
Zu den besonderen Eigenschaften von Spellcrafter, gehört das Magiesystem. Es erkennt Zeichen, die der Spieler auf dem Display zeichnet und wählt automatisch den gewünschten Zauber vom Zauberbuch aus. Wenn du dich an das Zeichen nicht erinnerst, kannst du immer im Zauberbuch nachschauen. Wenn man das Zauberbuch durchblättert, dauert es länger, und je schneller man einen Zauber wirft, desto stärker ist er. Das Spiel ist in drei Akte geteilt. Jeder Akt erzählt einen Teil der Geschichte über das Wesen der Realität, der Macht und der Moral. Zusätzlich ist jeder Akt in 3 Levels mit unterschiedlichen Einstellungen und verschiedenen Helden (Mensch, Nekromant, Elf) unterteilt.
Pro
+ gute Ansätze
+ Errungenschaften
Kontra
- viele Bugs im Umlauf
- langweilige Story
- Zeichensetzung funktioniert nicht immer
- Gegner zu stark
Fazit
Spellcrafter hat viele gute Ansätze, aber leider wirkt das ganze Spiel unfertig und nimmt daher den ganzen Spaß daran. Keine Empfehlung.
not worth the 2$ i got it for. i honestly wish this game was playable, but it isnt.
Whoever did this game should be sent to jail. This game is not just bad, terrible, a complete waste of time... it is physically painful. The developers should pay a fee for mental pain inflicted to the users... I really, really hope they will never and ever make another game, not in a million years... it is that bad...
This game contains some instances of good artwork, decent music, tolerable voice acting, and a unique game mechanic. Everything else? Well, let's just say that it's not worth the $9.99 full price and that I'm glad I got this off Humble store for SUPER cheap!
The graphics look dated, the camera and movement controls are frustrating, the intro is brief, but uninformative; the story is vague and unengaging, the dialogue: atrocious.
Actual battle game play seems better suited to tablets and touch devices. Though I had no problem using it, I can see how some people may have had problems drawing spells with speed and accuracy. This game should be made into an iOS and Android app that supports multi-touch.
In general, this feels more like an unfinished idea that needs fleshing out and a graphics overhaul. Great Idea, but not engaging enough, not polished enough, and costs too much.
Game worked fine for me. For the super low price in a sale it's worth it; full price it isn't.
Unbalanced gameplay, lame to nonexistent story, graphics nice and atmosperic but not very diverse. A disaster.
Gestures used in magics interface often hangs for no reason, but only in some scenarios. Some are so uncalibrated that in first round without any move of the player a 3 star rating is already impossible.
The underlying story outcome is shared by at least 5 movies and 3 games that I know, so nothing new here.
Steam is great but this is the worst steam game I've ever tried.
If you enjoy being frusterated at not having any tutorials or help to get past the first 2 minutes of the game this game is for you. Draw a really ridiculously hard arrow on the screen in order to use this one spell to kill the skeleton. Quit after 10 minutes of trying. NO help on the forums, no help in game, and you can't escape the first combat to move on! You just sit there frusterated. Graphics are beautiful, but with no option to do anything but scribble on a screen and your mouse movements don't even stay on the screen to help. NOR is there a "hey you've been trying this shape for quite a while, new shape? Or even better, would you like a guide?"
This game is a waste of money. It was not fun or interesting to play. It is very simplistic and not well executed. I bought this on sale and still feel cheated.
Incredibly bad.
Got stuck in the first baYou get taken to the game start screen, select the first spell to fire, and the game says: "Draw this on your screen" under a dancing arrow that points to a graphic of a wall.
Um... am I supposed to get a sketchpen? The keypad doesn't work, left-click and right-click don't work.... major problems. What is a dancing arrow supposed to mean exactly?
There's no in-game help accessible, and no idea how to get to the controls. I had to use Ctrl+Alt+Del to exit. This happened within the first 30 seconds of gameplay.
Don't know how good the actual game is since I never got past the skeleton.
Don't buy this. Seriously, just don't.
This game is unpolished, buggy and terrible. "Deep tactical turn based combat": Nope, it's as shallow as it could be. If you do decide to try this game after noticing all the negative reviews, get ready to handle a clunky UI with unresponsive controls. 0/10, don't get close to this game even if it's on sale.
stay away. this game has as much appeal as a hit on the head!
Please note this is an early access game and I bought it heavily discounted, neither I've looked at the dev page to see which features will be available in future, so this is just my first impression after finishing the first scenario.
- There is no map, no introduction to the story and the basic tutorial gives too few hints
- The game so far is really linear, but could improve later. Basically is like an HOMM game where you buy units, explore, collect gold, kill enemies and repeat the cycle. But at the moment there is no loot system, so you always find only gold. Also it seems you are stuck with a certain type of units (3) and can't recruit / find different units, but this could be just at the beginning and heroes could change later in the game.
- The camera is fixed, I don't really see the purpose. In certain situations will move in a completely different angle while you are walking making you lose where you were going (add on top of this that there is no map)
The good sides:
- The spell system is the thing that distinguishes this game from the others. You have to draw the lines on your screen and then select the enemies. Faster you are, stronger is the spell. If you don't remember a spell sign, you can always select it from the spellbook but this will make it less powerful. I did not really notice so much difference, but probably with stronger spells and more balanced game in future this will be more noticeable.
- It's really simple and for this price the final edition of the game can fill the void while waiting for your next favourite AAA game
I will play a little more later and update the review and keep looking for updates to see the progress, I'd recommend this game only to people in search of something different and willing to give some trust to developers. But before that, please look at their pages and what they have to say and if you agree or less with them and if they are going to fill the gaps already mentioned in this and other reviews. I don't feel like this is a tablet game, can have his say even on a PC.
Cheap Knockoff of Kings Bounty and that series. I wouldnt have purchased this if it wasnt on special. Great concept but far far behind other games in this turn based gameplay.
had the potential to be great, the graphics are mediocre the movements a bit slow, and even for the start of the game the battles are simple, that is once you get past the stupidly confusing battle mechanics, never have i seen anyone make turn based battle so damn complicated with your symbol shit. not only are they confusing but theyre also incredibly dificult to perform.
Needs a lot of work. Nice graphics so far, with some better UI could be quite fun.
The devs probably have this stuff on there list of todos. These were the most obvious requiments to me.
- Level menu has no tool tips for what bonus you're unlocking.
- Needs a veiw army menu also, with info on each unit.
- Camera follow is a bit annoying. Either have it user controled or stablise the motion.
[*] I like the mouse motion to cast spell. But it took me a while to realise it was the faint ball of light to imitate.
The spell idea is good but the current magic management is absent, the up-level managment is too simplistic. Could there be most explanations and effects for each upgrade I do? please put some undo buttons. The keyboard is dead. I played it like 15 minutes and I am already fed up with it. Please! somebody needs doing some major work here. Zoom-out is impossible and the auto-camera changes made me feel dizzy, why the fuss? Just allow the user the change the camera as they wish.
Would I recommend this game, No, not at this stage. 13-08-2014
i dont wish to play this gme again becuse it is slow on my computer and irritating to play i dont like the game play either i would like a refund
sure it could certainly use more, but what it does do is use the basic tools of this type of genre, and adds the flick of a wrist,mouse. and although targeting could be smoother, it does the job fine on my settings, for the price is totally worth it.
