The red-headed Aki slips into the well-worn trope of a childhood friend who has had a crush on your character for years but never spoke up, and her route is certainly the more saccharine of the two.
Playing as a young male going to college, you have two major routes to pursue when it comes to romance, and while you will eventually end up in bed with the girl of your choice if you pursue them properly, the game doesn’t feel like it’s all a build-up to getting them naked.
The major reason why Witch College doesn’t feel like another run of the mill vehicle for a collection of mature content is that its story actually devotes itself to the angles it’s pursuing. Surprisingly, Witch College is a game better described as sweet and fluffy rather than just sexy. Developer Kavorka Play certainly isn’t immune to this approach, their game Lovely Heroines almost on that level, but Witch College, despite featuring erotic scenes, doesn’t feel like it’s only trying to get you to them. The writing might work to establish the characters some, but it can often feel like you’re just sprinting to the erotic scenes, the game living or dying based on the quality of the art and writing featured at those key moments. Because of the relative ease involved in making a visual novel video game, the genre often finds itself the platform for games that are essentially just delivery methods for adult content.
