Game Name Announcement
We are thrilled to announce the name of Candlelight Games' first project: LOVE & MAGIC: SPELLFYRE!
What is LOVE & MAGIC: SPELLFYRE?
From the creators of Choices: Stories You Play and High School Story, LOVE & MAGIC: SPELLFYRE is a next-generation narrative game that combines heartfelt storytelling with an original fantasy world, gorgeous visuals, and compelling characters to fall in love with.
LOVE & MAGIC: SPELLFYRE is the ultimate magic school experience, capturing everything people love about the genre: the world-building, the romance, and of course, the magic.
What is LOVE & MAGIC: SPELLFYRE about?
Eighteen years ago, the dark arcane Andros Dreadbane was defeated, and Elderwood University was established to protect young arcanes from corruption. Now, it’s time for Dreadbane’s only heir to enroll. But when every student wants you dead—including your infuriatingly attractive rival—will you step out of your father’s shadow, or embrace the darkness within?
LOVE & MAGIC: SPELLFYRE is a fantasy game with elements of action and romance, perfect for fans of Dragon Age, Fourth Wing, and Choices titles like Blades of Light and Shadow or The Elementalists.
Will you be able to choose your gender?
Yes!
Will there be multiple love interests?
Yes, players will be able to choose from a number of different love interests, like the roguish bad boy or the fun-loving party girl.
When will LOVE & MAGIC: SPELLFYRE be released?
We're aiming to soft launch around the end of summer with a global launch near the end of 2025. We're also exploring the possibility of beta testers, so keep an eye out for more information on that.
We are SO excited about the game we're making, and we're working very hard to get it into your hands as soon as possible. In the meantime, we're going to be sharing lots of sneak peeks, starting later this week!
I see lots of references to “Project Spellstruck”. Are you making two games?
Project Spellstruck was our codename for LOVE & MAGIC: SPELLFYRE. We wanted a way to talk to all of you about the game while we were still figuring out the title. They are the same game, and our team is very focused on making that one game as incredible as possible.
We want to know more!
That’s all we can tell you at this time, but we’ll be giving regular updates throughout LOVE & MAGIC: SPELLFYRE’s development. To stay up-to-date on all the latest, sign up for our newsletter and follow us on social media (Instagram, Facebook, X)!
Note: this game is still in development and all parts of it are subject to change.
