Stardander School for Witches is not your typical magical institution; it's a unique blend of LGBTQIA+ representation, women empowerment, and a sprinkle of anthropomorphic magic, all wrapped up in a captivating visual novel RPG. This enchanting school has now opened its doors to welcome eager students during its Early Access launch on Steam. Get ready to embark on a journey where you'll learn to battle Fae, wield the elements, and even acquire a magical companion, whether you're a seasoned wizard or a muggle.

A Magical Fusion of Sailor Moon and Hogwarts

Imagine a world where the enchanting charm of Sailor Moon collides with the mystique of Hogwarts Legacy, spiced up with LGBTQIA+ magic and a feline headmaster – that's Stardander School for Witches in a nutshell. This visual novel RPG is set to captivate players with its spellbinding storytelling and captivating characters. It's time to dive into the mystical realm where magic, mystery, and friendships await.

A Truly Unique Magical Education

Stardander School for Witches departs from the standard visual novel format by introducing a turn-based combat system. Students can team up with their friends to battle dangerous Fae using skills learned from their quirky professors. However, the uniqueness of Stardander lies in its understanding that battling isn't everyone's cup of magical tea. Students can choose to opt out of fighting without drastically altering the storyline or their overall experience at the school.

Choices Shape Your Destiny

While opting out of battling may not change your journey, other decisions will. The pivotal choice is selecting an elemental group, which will influence your abilities and narrative choices throughout the game. Students can also pick their magical companions and wands, enhancing their elemental traits and magical prowess.

Key Features

• The Power of Friendship: Forge friendships or rivalries with your fellow witches-in-training.

• Optional Battle System: Recruit friends to engage in thrilling turn-based battles against dangerous Fae.
