About the Game
A gothic mystery debate adventure in which thirteen girls in an island prison must unmask the witch among them.
Magical Girl Witch Trials is a single-player adventure game that blends mystery storytelling with debate and deduction. The store tags it as Adventure, Indie and Simulation, but its core appeal is the mystery itself: you spend more time reading people than controlling them. Developed by Acacia and published by Re,AER and CIRCLE LINE GAMES, it is presented as a magic debate and suspense adventure with a gothic-style mystery drama at its center.
The story begins when Emma wakes up in a dim cell instead of her bedroom, on a remote island with no clear reason for her arrest. She and twelve other girls are told by a talking owl that they are likely witches and must live as prisoners. Life in the prison is uneasy but often friendly, and the girls slowly get to know each other. Then one of them is murdered, and the owl announces a Witch Trial in which the group must vote out a witch and send that girl to execution.
The core loop is split between two activities. Between trials, you gather clues from what the girls say and from traces of their shared daily life, looking for contradictions that reveal who is lying. At the regularly scheduled Witch Trials, you present your reasoning, debate with the others, and try to pin down the killer. The stakes are high because the witch behind the murders keeps the killings going, so each wrong guess has real consequences in the story.
What stands out is the way the store page describes the structure. The mystery is framed around big questions about why the prison exists, what the witches are, and who is really pulling the strings. The description also promises that once one part of the story reaches a conclusion, a new story experience follows from a completely different angle. That promise suggests the mystery is designed to keep shifting beneath your feet rather than resolving in a single arc.
Feature Highlights
- The store page promises that once one part of the story wraps up, a fresh story experience unfolds from a completely different angle.
- Clues come from contradictions in the girls' statements and from the traces their shared daily life leaves behind in the prison.
- Periodic Witch Trials turn your investigation into open debate, where you must reason out which girl is lying and who the killer is.
- Steam Cloud support is listed, so your saves can sync through Steam Cloud between your machines.
- A mouse-only control option and no need for fast reactions make it a calm, deliberate experience that rewards careful thought.
- Custom volume controls, Remote Play on tablets and Family Sharing are all listed among its features.
Who It Is (and Is Not) For
Recommended For
Mystery fans who enjoy piecing together contradictions and arguing a case will get the most out of Magical Girl Witch Trials. It suits players who prefer thinking things through over reacting quickly, since the store lists mouse-only play and says quick reactions are not required. It is also a good match for readers comfortable with Japanese or Simplified Chinese text.
Not Recommended For
Players who want Traditional Chinese or English text should look elsewhere, because the current language support does not include either one. Anyone uncomfortable with mature or sensitive material should skip it, given the adult content flag and the story's murder-driven premise. Players looking for action, fast combat or twitch-based gameplay will not find that here.
What the Steam Reviews Say
Magical Girl Witch Trials currently holds an Overwhelmingly Positive rating on Steam, with 97 percent of reviews being positive. The rating is backed by tens of thousands of reviews, so this is not a small sample of opinions. A result this high, combined with that much volume, indicates that a large number of players have consistently enjoyed the experience.
Steam calculates its review labels from the share of positive reviews and the total number of reviews, so a high percentage carries more weight when the volume is large. Very small review counts can swing sharply with a few opinions, but that is not the situation here. Keep in mind that the rating reflects player sentiment rather than an official verdict, and it is still worth reading the reviews to see whether the mystery style and debate system match what you enjoy.

All prices below are Taiwan Steam store prices in NT$. The current price is NT$ 398, which matches the regular price, so the game is not on sale at the moment. The lowest price we have recorded is NT$ 318, which was on July 18, 2026, and the deepest discount we have tracked is 20 percent.
The game is discounted often in our records, so a sale is not unusual. We have not recorded a period when it was free to keep, and the highest price we have recorded is NT$ 398, the same as today. Our price record is still short, so any verdict on the timing of a sale should be treated as tentative.
Whether now is a good time depends on your patience. The current price is at the top of the range we have seen, while the game has dipped before, so waiting for a sale is a reasonable choice. If you want it now, the NT$ 398 price is consistent with the strong review rating, but a wishlist and a sale alert is the safer route until our price record grows.

The listed languages are Japanese and Simplified Chinese, and English is not listed. The game carries an adult content flag, and its story involves murder and a prison setting, so it is not suitable for everyone.
