How to Play
Getting started in SPELLSWORN is both thrilling and intuitive. Begin your journey as a young witch lost in a spellbound forest, armed with nothing but your wits and a handful of magical cards. Navigate each stage using keyboard-only controls: move or change your current card selection with the WASD keys or arrow keys. To interact—whether casting spells, picking up cards, or merging them—simply press X or Space.
Your primary objective is to collect spell cards scattered throughout each level. Think strategically: some cards offer offensive firepower, others provide invaluable defensive boosts. Find duplicates to merge cards, strengthening their effects and unlocking unique powers. As bullet hell waves rain down, you'll need nimble reflexes to dodge patterns while keeping an eye out for opportunities to grow your deck.
Facing a boss? Hone your movement and timing to evade complex barrages while launching your most potent spells in retaliation. With each victory, choose from different branching paths, altering your journey and the possible ending you unlock!
Beginner tips: Focus early on card collection to fill your deck with a variety of spells. Merging is crucial—powerful, upgraded cards can make boss fights dramatically easier. Don't hesitate to replay areas to discover synergies or try out new strategies. Remember: every decision changes your experience, so embrace experimentation and make each playthrough your own magical story.
