PLAYED ON: PC via PC Game Pass
From the moment I started playing Magical Delicacy, I was pretty enchanted by the whole concept. I mean, who wouldn’t love the idea of being a young witch juggling spellcasting & whipping up delicious dishes? The game’s world is vibrant and full of personality, and I found myself easily getting lost in its whimsical charm. The visuals alone were enough to pull me in, with all the bright colours and magical details that made exploring feel like a treat.
As I dove deeper into the game, though, I started to notice some things that didn’t quite hit the mark for me. The gameplay, while fun at first, began to feel a bit repetitive after a while. Don’t get me wrong, the mix of cooking and magic is a really neat idea, but the execution felt a little uneven. I found myself getting a bit bored with some of the tasks, which became more of a chore than a joy after a few hours.

The controls were another area that could’ve used a bit more polish. There were moments when they just didn’t feel as smooth or intuitive as I’d hoped, which led to some frustrating situations, especially when trying to pull off more complicated moves. It’s one of those things that, while not game-breaking, definitely took away from the overall experience for me.
Despite these hiccups, I still found a lot to like about this game. The story, while not groundbreaking, was sweet and had enough charm to keep me interested. I enjoyed meeting the different characters along the way—they each had their own little quirks that added some nice depth to the game’s world. It’s clear that the developers put a lot of heart into this project, and that love shows in the details.
Even with its flaws, I can’t say I didn’t have a good time with this game. There’s something really satisfying about the mix of magic and cooking, even if it didn’t completely blow me away. I appreciate the unique concept and the effort that went into creating such a charming world, even if it didn’t quite live up to all of my expectations.
TSHC Score : 7.5/10
So, while Magical Delicacy may not be a perfect game, it’s still one that I’d recommend if you’re in the mood for something light and whimsical. It’s the kind of game you can relax with, enjoy the lovely visuals, and maybe even get a little inspired by.
