Magiscapes

Magiscapes is a pixel-art sandbox game set on the continent of Oz. You explore its regions, build a home and travel with AI companions whose personalities, routines and relationships develop through your interactions. Oz also has a main storyline, side quests, underground mines, ancient ruins, hidden treasures and bosses to face with your party.

Create companions

You can describe a companion’s appearance, personality, way of speaking, backstory and life goals using text or images. Each character has a unique ID code that you can share with friends or use to bring other players’ characters into your world. Companions are not limited to fixed dialogue: their behavior, attitudes and relationships evolve through your interactions. You can chat, give gifts and go on adventures together; actions they dislike may cause them to give you the cold shoulder.

Companions have individual personalities and ways of life. A lazy one might sleep all day, while a battle-loving one might spend hours hunting. They react to their surroundings and share thoughts shaped by their personalities. They also get to know one another, talk while traveling in the same party and join you for meals. The town has other AI residents, each with routines, relationships and stories of their own.

Build a home

Gather resources, construct buildings and decorate your home to turn an empty plot into a camp for you and your companions. You can grow magical plants and cultivate mutations, fish, cook and spend time with creatures. Companions receive life skills based on their character settings, including farming, mining, cooking and alchemy, and can use those skills to help at home.

Your camp also serves as a base for expeditions. Stock resources, craft equipment and build mechanical devices before heading into the mines, taking on a boss or traveling into the unknown.

Explore Oz

Oz includes swamps, plains, snowy landscapes and deserts, each with its own ecosystem, resources, wildlife and challenges. You can explore freely, follow the main story and take on side quests. Companions who know the way can lead you to destinations and resources.

Stories and quests

As your bond with a companion grows, you unlock personal stories unique to them. Relationship milestones can also unlock AI-generated quests drawn from their backstories, such as helping a mechanic find a long-lost sister or a traveler come to terms with the past. Completing these quests earns AI-generated items, each with its own name and special effects; some can also boost you in combat.

Crystals and AI features

The base game includes 2,400 Crystals and one free character creation, allowing you to create four original AI NPCs in total. Crystals are mainly used to create or recruit additional AI NPCs and for the optional text-to-speech feature. Once an NPC is created, AI conversations, quests and items do not use additional Crystals.

With the official AI service, you can have up to 10 back-and-forth exchanges per in-game day, which is about 20 minutes in real time. Sleeping advances the game to the next day.
