Academagia: The Making of Mages
RPG enrolling us in the Academy of Magic.
For immediate release:
San Diego, CA – August 13, 2010 – Academagia: The Making of Mages is now available from www.academagia.com as well as through digital distribution at Beamdog, GamersGate and Impulse.
Academagia is a whimsical life simulation and role-playing game set at the renowned Academy of Magic in the rich and dangerous city of Mineta. As a newly arrived teenager in a strange, vast school, the player will embark on adventures great and small, train their familiar, make friends and enemies, and master the shining arts and subtle laws of spell-casting.
A PC game, Academagia allows the player to chart a journey through the first year of their instruction, and offers enough secret skills, magical locations, spells, items and adventures for countless hours of replay. Completely unlike any life simulation before it, the daily events develop not just according to the actions of the player, but also the interests and goals of over 80 other AI-controlled students- each with their own motivations, mischief and opinions. Additionally, there are over 800 random events, insuring that no game is ever the same!
Created to be a fun and unique answer to the question: "What if I could study magic?", Academagia allows the player to control every aspect of their schooling: from which of the 7 colleges they enroll in and what classes they choose, to how much they study, socialize or play. Every action taken offers its own reward, but with so many choices available each day, they will have to learn how to manage their time expertly.
Academagia retails for $24.95. For more information about the game, please log onto: www.academagia.com.
