We're looking for translator volunteers! You're enjoying Witch It? You would love to see it in your language? Perfect! We're looking for you!

We're constantly trying to add more languages to Witch It and we want to improve the languages that got already added.
Teamwork is always the best thing, that's why we're also looking for volunteers who want to help to improve the existing languages. :)

Requested languages:

-Japanese
-Korean
-Traditional Chinese
-Simplified Chinese
-Spanish

You're enjoying Witch It, you're a native speaker of one of the languages listed above and you'd like to help?

The Halloween Event has begun!



-Added: New game mode “Fill a Pot”

The new game mode is an objective mode where the Witches have to fill 3 of the 5 cauldrons to win the round, while the Hunters must prevent them from doing so.
Join a game of “Fill a Pot” and choose your team. You will get sorted randomly into the Witch team or the Hunter team. Currently, you can play 2vs2. (We’re already testing 1vs1 and 3vs3). For this game mode the Possess skill is deactivated and the Garlic and Mushroom skills have shorter effects (Garlic 6 instead of 10 seconds, Mushroom 2 instead of 4 seconds). If your team member leaves the game, you are able to surrender and still get the XP. Your selected skills for this game mode are saved separately.
