2 smallish Halloween-vibes games in this one. They're not even the same rating, but I do what I want :P

Tidy Cauldron
3/5⭐ | Steam | Simple tile game with cute aesthetics and music
This game is super adorable, about helping a witch organize ingredients in her cauldron (and later other areas, such as summoning circles and coffins). The music and pixel art are super thematic, and I really enjoyed it - until the puzzles got too tricky and I bailed. 😅 I don't have enough patience for the whole game, but if you like this kind of puzzle, this is a great version!

The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood
4/5⭐ | Steam | Fascinating narrative game about witches in space
I loved so much about this game - the setting (space!), playing as an immortal and super powerful witch, the variety of rad sister witches you get to meet, creating and decorating your own "tarot" cards, learning about the world and your character's past, and chilling with a giant demon guy.
The narrative of the game is fascinating, especially as you learn more about your powers and grapple with how to use them. I loved all the relationships you can form with various witches, and exploring your existing friendships and mentorships. I also enjoyed the cardmaking mechanic - you can spend awhile working on art for the cards you construct in the game, which is more fun than it has any right to be.
However, the story of the game is pretty fixed, which IMO limits its replay value. On my second playthrough I did encounter some fun new character moments, but the overall story stays mostly the same, so I think replays have diminishing returns. Still, I enjoyed discovering this world for a few hours, meeting interesting characters, and thinking about the nature of the future and existence itself!
