### 4/5 — Will miss

*2025-12-17, version 1.0.6*

I really like this game I played it for a few years. I am disappointed and saddened that it is being shut down and not sold to attempt to make a better version and show the potential it could have. 😢

### 3/5 — I’ll miss it

*2025-12-10, version 1.0.6*

I just wanted to say how much this game has meant to me over the 2 years I’ve been playing it, life hasn’t been the easiest lately but I could always play this game to get a sense of calm. I’m really sad it’s shutting down but I hope the creators know how much it meant to people like me.
Thank you so much for this amazing game I hope whatever your next venture is, it’s a successful one.
And to anyone reading this and thinking the same thing, I hope you find a game that’s just as amazing as this one.

### 4/5 — Cute community and fun concept, needs a dedicated team

*2025-12-04, version 1.0.6*

There’s really no other game like it, shame they’ve decided to just shut it down instead of revamp or sell it. The art style of the character and fashion is great and could easily be improved upon with an attentive team. Cute community and concept. Really surprised it didn’t last - I think it would’ve with a dedicated team. Will miss it, barely got a year and had a pretty good run without spending big bucks too.

### 4/5 — Sad to see it go

*2025-12-01*

Saw ads for it on Instagram and decided to give it a download, it was fun and loved the fashion and events they hosted. Started to get slow eventually and only came down to a handful of us on server S-30 playing. The other players were so sweet to talk to and game with while we could. I think if they had done the server merge with active players it would’ve been a different story. Had a good time playing the game, wish I could have progressed the story more before the shut down was announced but over all it was a cute game if they decide to make something like it I would play.

**Developer response:** Hey, Enchanter! Your unwavering support and heartfelt encouragement have been a gift — we’ll always remember your passion for the game and the community. Though the server closure is now confirmed and will go ahead as scheduled, please know how much it meant to have you by our side. Thank you for writing a chapter in our story with us.

### 2/5 — XP

*2025-08-08, version 1.0.6*

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make it easier to level up, or at least make it easier/quicker to gain xp. at this rate im going to be on the same level for YEARS because you barely gain any xp daily. 
Also with Occult Chamber, why is it i’m not new to the game and i’ve only got like 30points while every other player has three THOUSAND plus?? this game isn’t fair at all, it must favour paying players way more than everyone else because there’s no other way this would make sense.

### 4/5 — Dress up

*2025-07-10, version 1.0.6*

The dress up wont load its breen months and it just wont work. Please help if you can☺️

### 3/5 — Used to be better- now it’s like mindless work

*2025-06-08*

What is the point of earning clothes-through events or magic mirror or otherwise- if there’s no where to use them? Sure it increases your reputation but you don’t earn anything for dressing up in story chapters. The glamour chronicles, which is reliant on dress up, has an old outfit from months ago to earn. Fashion runway needs at least 20 players to continue and with repetitive themes and low ranking outfits no one wants to play. Drop rate of good quality or rare items is nonexistent.  There’s really nothing engaging anymore. Everything is grinding away to get next to nothing- even if you pay! So pointless! All in all, right now this game has the feeling of one that’s about to shut down.

**Developer response:** Hey, Enchanter! If you have any better suggestions and opinions of the game in the following, please feel free to contact online customer service or FB editor, and we'll be happy to listen and collect. Wish you a happy game.

### 3/5 — Be prepared to spend money

*2025-03-26*

The game is okay. But it still has several issues. I am constantly kicked out of system. I ascended to  the  Maestro level. But didn’t receive the outfit that was supposed to come with the ascension. 
 Also it is difficult to progress without spending a lot of money . You spend money on diamonds ( currency) . But instead of acquiring the items needed to build the wardrobe required to win( 5 star quality items). You are often stuck receiving 1, 2, and 3 star quality pieces. Most times multiples of the same pieces. And while you may up cycle the pieces for a 4-5 star quality piece. It takes time and a lot of up cycling to acquire enough to obtain those items.

**Developer response:** Hey, enchanter! Your feedback and suggestions are highly appreciated. If you encounter abnormal game problems, please feel free to contact customer service in game or Facebook PM, we will be happy to assist! Thank you for your love.

### 3/5 — I like it but needs some work

*2025-03-01, version 1.0.6*

Two important feedback items I didn’t see listed on a quick scroll:
1. As we collect more outfit pieces, players desperately need the capability to favorite their own outfit concoctions. It is exhaustive to have to find a re-select every piece.

2. So much repetition in simple “click to advance” mechanisms and games. I like when there are “find the item” games because it’s a game that requires thought. Would love more of this. Crossword, match games, memory games, etc. Magickindles and other daily/routine mechanisms are more about chance and progression than thoughtful selection of the cards. I’d love a card game that required skill.

### 2/5 — Can’t login in

*2025-02-27, version 1.0.6*

I need help it’s been two months of me trying to login back in

### 3/5 — I like the game but they need to merge servers

*2025-02-08, version 1.0.6*

I’m on a server where there’s often not enough players to fill contents and clubs. It just seems like people stop playing and no one new starts

### 1/5 — I couldn’t even start

*2024-12-30, version 1.0.6*

Unlike a lot of people I didn’t even get to start I tried so many times and wasted my time deleting apps and then trying to load it. It was just a big waste for me

### 1/5 — Pay2win

*2024-12-22, version 1.0.6*

After spending about 20-30 hours on this game, I’ve realized the developers intentionally make it nearly impossible to play this game without spending a ton of money. There isn’t really much to collect in terms of clothing unless you’re willing to spend $10-20 on a single outfit.

### 3/5 — Bugs?

*2024-11-27, version 1.0.6*

I like the game but it is not loading at all when I click on it, just the title page appearing and that is all.

### 2/5 — It’s… fine. Mostly a cash grab

*2024-11-19*

So the game is super cute and fine for like a month. But doesn’t have enough events or new things to keep it interesting. Each event is literally the same as the last with a different outfit. You get a useless pet that no one she’s anything with and there’s a card game that’s just rock, paper, scissors that no one really enjoys either.  It becomes a daily to do last really fast and the story takes foreverrrrrr to move through if you’re f2P. My server is currently dying and all the paying players want to stop because it hasn’t been worth the money spent or they’ve moved to f2p because it’s not worth it.  So there’s that.  Has potential to be good but… it’s just not.

**Developer response:** Hey, enchanter! Your feedback and suggestions are highly appreciated. If you have any better suggestions and opinions of the game in the following, please feel free to contact online customer service or FB editor, we'll be happy to listen and collect. Wish you a happy game.

### 4/5 — Lacking Support - resolved

*2024-11-16, version 1.0.5*

This game has a great story and is being updated regularly. However as updates are made there are glitches that come along too. The team has not communicated well on steps they are taking to resolve glitches. However I have had my issues properly fixed and I think they are making a real effort to fix issues as they can. I think what they are missing is better communication and beta testing updates.

### 3/5 — Potentially good game but PTW

*2024-11-14, version 1.0.5*

Game is unique, but progress is very slow and grindy unless you pay money

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Greatest thieves

*2025-12-06, version 1.0.6*

Heard you guys were shutting down, goodbye to the thieves that dropped the game after the spam of disgusting micro transactions ❤️ I hope you guys never make a game again.

### 1/5 — Dying game don’t waste your money seriously it’s become a cheap cash grab

*2025-12-04, version 1.0.6*

I’m at 520 days streak login(which is HUGE waste of time btw cause the gift you get is not gems or a clothing item but a couple scrolls and some purple follower set, so things you can get in game for cheap) I have sent reports about how the glass atelier on our server has not changed items since December. As well as how we’ve had so many people leave we don’t have enough players to do the fashion contest which could be fixed if servers were merged together. I’ve received zero feedback.

New players have joined and instantly quit because they see the game is dying. There is no point in renewing monthly cards or getting the year, save your money.

Edit: The automated response to this review just proves it. I say in my review I have been sending suggestions and bug reports that have been ignored yet the response tells me to send messages….

Update edit: They are taking our money and running instead of fixing the issues that caused player loss and listening to players who were suggesting server merges. Refunds need to be issued!

### 1/5 — Oriwish is a scam!!

*2025-12-01, version 1.0.6*

After over a year and a half of having developers promise players updates and server merges were in the works they just announced full shut down of the game out of no where!! 

To all players who have spent hundreds of dollars and time there has been no compensation, not even the ability to keep our work! They are fully deleting everything we worked for!

At this time it’s clear the company has been fraudulently leading on players to continue to receiving money from them with no intention of holding their promises to players. 

The games discord channel is now full of talk of class action lawsuits and reports to respective countries. 

Do not download any game from Oriwish, they are unreliable and untrustworthy game producers.

### 1/5 — DON'T DOWNLOAD THIS

*2025-09-30, version 1.0.6*

TERRIBLE. I NOW SEE SHADOWS OF PPL IN MY CLOSET AT NIGHT 🎣

### 1/5 — Disappointed ☹️

*2025-09-10*

I give this game two stars mainly because it’s an extreme cash grab.. I remember the devs asking for support and suggestions and none of them have been met for an example. The whispering network is bugged out like crazy. It’s been like that since the game appeared. Another disappointment would be collecting clothes. It is extremely hard to collect enough different clothes through the magic mirror because you will get repeated clothing unless you spend money for diamonds. Unless you spend money, you would have to spend about $20-$30 for one whole outfit, but that doesn’t mean you automatically get that outfit you would have to login do in game tasks to earn the outfit you thought you purchased until you finish all those tasks you will have the outfit you paid for😕 I truly enjoyed this game in the beginning and it’s story but as for the story, I’ve noticed micro aggressions and stereotypes for the only dark skin character who’s supposed to be the mfc friend an example would be throughout the story you would notice Alex, constantly being aggressive towards any1 as if her character easily gets angry for no reason she has huge pitbull behavior for no reason🧐 and I’m pretty sure if anyone reads the bad reviews it’s deserved. I really wanted to love this game, but there’s so many other concerns I will be deleting this game very soon. It’s becoming… boring and that is why it’s very disappointing it’s a huge money grab🙃

**Developer response:** Hey Enchanter!
We’re sorry to hear about your frustrations with the current gameplay experience, we want to assure you that we take these matters seriously.While we regret that the current state of the game has disappointed you, we hope you’ll give us another chance as we implement improvements. If you’d like, please share specific suggestions and bugs via in-game online customer service or Facebook Messenger, and we’d be happy to escalate them to the development team.

### 1/5 — Can’t even play

*2025-08-24, version 1.0.6*

I’ve tried to log in or either delete and reload the app but the game has a huge glitch where my screen goes black before I even get to see my character. Haven’t actually played the game let alone set my character up. I give up.

### 1/5 — DO NOT DOWNLOAD! Money Hungry, with devs who don’t care

*2025-07-05, version 1.0.6*

This game has fantastic potential but entirely wastes it by being extremely money hungry.

It’s pay to win, with whales who have unfortunately fallen victim to scam game dev company where the developers are pathetic enough to use AI slop. Just hire real artists!

Only pathetic wastes of life use generative AI.

Every event is extremely short and limited time so it makes it impossible to complete outfit collections unless you spend extreme amounts of money on the game. Everyone in the official discord server and the official Facebook page are BEGGING the devs to fix the game and to stop making it be only about them making money, but they’re not listening.

Instead, they have another AI bot (at least, I hope it is, otherwise you need to fire your social media team) who does absolutely nothing to moderate properly, allowing spam and other inappropriate content to be posted without issue, and who only generically replies to people’s complaints and concerns. 

This development team is full of lazy people who want to make a quick buck, and who don’t care for their player base AT ALL.

If you truly cared for the game then you’d do the following:
1. Put out more content for the various ways players can purchase outfits
2. Merge servers
3. Make it easier for free to play people to participate. Add mini games or other outfit competitions they can participate in besides the weekly leaderboards
4. MERGE SERVERS. We only have like 13 actives on our server and they’re all upset with the direction of the game and considering quitting because none of the events as of late have been worth it.
5. Hire a proper English translator. Recently we had an event that was an iSpy concept and one of the items was a birds nest, but the list said “palm tree” which meant a lot of people failed the event. This was a pathetic and easy to fix mistake on the devs part.

This game could easily be fixed but your entire team is LAZY AND MONEY HUNGRY. You could bring in so many new players and so much more revenue if you all just got off your lazy asses and actually put in work to the game. It’s not that hard, which is something I can confidently say as a game developer myself.

FIRE YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA TEAM AND START PUTTING IN ACTUAL WORK, AND STOP BEING PATHETIC LAZY AI SLOP USERS.

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2025-04-20, version 1.0.6*

I used to love this game, got addicted to it for months. Even as Free to Play I still managed to do well in events and win things. Now it’s impossible to win, even if you pay a ton of money. All they ever say to feedback is to at they’ve “submitted it to the correct department” or are “working on it”. Nothing ever changes. Even worse, it’s pretty much confirmed that they’re using AI to cheaply generate art and voice acting in recent chapters. Don’t waste your time on this game, all it wants is your money.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Wonderful game, poor reviews are truly just petty.

*2025-11-29*

Second favorite dress up game, I adore it. Please sell this game to keep it alive, it is genuinely full of so much potential and the player base is so welcoming. To be brutally honest, these poor reviews are written by children who do not understand how to play a game. Yes, some games include a few payment actions. Yes, there may be a tiny bug or two. Do not let these poor reviews shape your view of the game, it is genuinely a very creative and unique game. I’m so easy to loose interest in games and just delete, but this one has captivated me for over 2 years now. It’s interactive, has lore, and I’ve met so many great people. If you love the supernatural and quirky side quests, this is a great game for you. This is the only game I have nothing bad to say about. I’ve made so much progress, more than 50M fame, and I have never sent a penny to this game. It is NOT a cash grab.

### 5/5 — Amazing but likes to glitch me out

*2024-12-05, version 1.0.6*

I appreciate this game soooo much it’s an amazing game and I love everything about it love the story love the characters but the only thing I have to say is that I’m playing on a ipod and I don’t know if it does this for anyone but for me it glitches me out but honestly that’s all I love the game💛💛

### 5/5 — Awesome game but…

*2024-11-02, version 1.0.5*

Please bring back the flame gifts to purchase in the enchantment shop.

### 5/5 — AWESOME! Just some suggestions

*2024-07-24, version 1.0.4*

S40 is such a kind and awesome server, everybody there is so awesome and I’m really glad that I got a great server. 

I love the game mechanics and what you can do in the game! It keeps you interested and always coming back to it, I would recommend this game to people.

Some things I wish would be added is
Ally clubs
Highest flower donator title
2 people with the highest likeability get highest likeability title
More female love interests

I wish that there was faster ways that give you more energy and coins without paying. That’s my review.

### 5/5 — Amazing!!!

*2024-07-21, version 1.0.4*

This game has beautiful graphics and the spirits are so cute! I’ve been playing this for one day and I love it! I 100% recommend it

### 5/5 — Love, but…

*2024-06-18, version 1.0.4*

I love this game, but I would love it if the characters didn’t have to cooldown for so long after getting defeated, and I wish it was easier to get new clothes, seeing as that’s the main appeal for me.

### 5/5 — A Witches Tale - Early review!

*2024-06-03, version 1.0.4*

This is not an easy game…. But engaging with a real life feel

### 5/5 — Love the game

*2024-05-17, version 1.0.4*

I saw this game as an ad and I was intrigued 
A bit skeptical but I decided to go for it and download the game and I LOVE IT 
The game has no ads, a big story and journey you get to go on, and (most importantly) no required in game purchases. Thank you for this great game ❤️

### 5/5 — (Updated)

*2024-05-14*

The game has been on "maintenance" on all servers and have been waiting for it to be finished to be able to play again. However it's been past over due of the finished maintenance time and decided to try again and still shows all servers in maintenance. Updated: It was certainly worth the maintained, I think the game needs more outfits to earn in the gatcha system and more outfits for lover flames as well but since it's a new game I will understand. I am looking forward to seeing the growth of this game and is certainly now a lot better graphics, smooth animations, and art than the other very similar game that I have played (on chinese empress).

**Developer response:** Hey, Enchanter!Game maintenance has ended,If you have other questions, please feel free to contact service in game or Facebook PM.I wish you a happy game~

### 5/5 — the best game

*2024-05-02*
