Buy Choice of Magics PC key

Choice of Magics is a 550,000-word interactive, text-based fantasy novel set in a post-apocalyptic world. You play a young scrounger of antiquities who discovers spells from five schools of magic and must decide how to use them to rebuild society, and what risks to accept for the sake of your people. Your choices can help protect your homeland, conquer it or destroy it.

Five costly magics

Thousands of years ago, the ancients destroyed civilization using five schools of magic. Each spell carries a dangerous price:

• Glamor: charm adversaries while your body rots from within.
• Divination: uncover distant secrets while exposing your own to others.
• Automation: give objects the spark of life, destabilizing the climate.
• Vivomancy: heal or alter living things, with bizarre side effects.
• Negation: blast enemies with energy that leaves permanent clouds of deadly fallout.

Shape your life

You can play as male, female or non-binary, and as straight, gay, bi or ace. Design a pet, hatch a baby dragon and build golems. You can win a war, claim the crown or pursue your best friend's heart, and romance the village's geeky mayor, a goofy swordfighter or the queen.

The story also lets you transform an evil Inquisitor into a talking tortoise bent on revenge, collect magic items such as rings of power, an alchemy set and a “light sword,” help a stuffed monkey repaint the murals in the Cathedral dungeon, and try the mayor's new board game. Your use of magic determines whether you help bring the world back from ruin or destroy it again.
