A short but magical visual novel 

This enchanting game can provide you a playthrough that lasts for approximately 15 minutes. You will take the role of Wick here, newly-hired personnel in the bakery, and you will be welcomed and guided by Brie all throughout the game.

Making the business run will also enable you to utilize spells which will make you execute chores a lot easier, such as cleaning, organizing taxes, and more.

It provides a text-based adventure game experience, wherein your world is described in the narrative and you choose the simple commands that will enable you to interact. The mechanics are simple—you will only have to assist Chip in making the dishes by preparing the ingredients he needs. The challenge will be that the comment cards recipe provided are in riddles so you will need to wrack your brain to solve these puzzles.  

This VN can be played using either keyboard or mouse controls. It allows you to save your game so you can instantly pick up wherever you left. If you want to go back and read the conversations you had all over again, you can easily access it through the History option available.
