Studies in Sorcery is a game in which players attempt to complete projects in Alchemy and Reanimation to ultimately complete their thesis and graduate from the Academy of the Dark Arts. Each area of ​​study at the Academy of the Dark Arts is different and requires different skills. Alchemy takes time, but can give you instant skills. CPR requires just the right ingredients if you really want to impress the professors and can help you build future projects even faster. Sorcery takes work, but can give you new abilities depending on the phase of the moon. During their turn, players can choose to search for ingredients or pick up more projects to work on. At the end of each round, players can assign their ingredients to projects and hopefully complete a project so they can reap the fruits of their labor. The game ends after four semesters have passed and players present their projects for review. Choose your thesis and study areas wisely and even you can get your degree!
