About A Sceptic's Guide to Magic
A Sceptic's Guide to Magic is a point-and-click adventure about a forensic investigator and two teenage witches investigating a ritual murder. You play as Lester Chapman and Fianna as they pursue the people responsible and uncover a mystery in which science and magic collide.
The murder case
After years as a forensic investigator, Lester has seen many disturbing crime scenes, but his latest case exposes him to dark primordial forces. Fianna and Val have lost their friend to a bloody ritual murder and will stop at nothing to find the perpetrators. They enlist Lester, who is skeptical of their magic; as he investigates, cracks form in his rigid view of the world.
Learn spellcraft
As Lester, you study magic from an obscure tome titled A Sceptic's Guide to Magic. You gather ingredients and other items to make potions and cast spells, combining spellcraft with traditional investigation and puzzle-solving to uncover the truth behind the murder.
The game draws on English magic and folklore, as well as ancient Greek mythology. It features more than twenty spells, dozens of magical ingredients and over twenty locations across Birmingham, England, many based on real places.
Chapters and endings
The story spans nine chapters and has several possible endings. A hidden bonus chapter features a new playable character.
