A Witch's Tale is a role-playing game developed by Hit Maker and released for the Nintendo DS in 2009. The story follows Liddell, a witch-in-training who accidentally frees an ancient evil called the Eld Witch, setting a monstrous force loose upon a series of fairy tale kingdoms. Accompanied by a vampire companion named Loue, Liddell travels through dungeons and solves puzzles in pursuit of reversing the curse she helped unleash. Combat is turn-based and built around drawing magical runes on the DS touchscreen, with battles incorporating elemental affinities and status effects. A central mechanic involves collectible magical dolls that assist Liddell in fights; maintaining their condition is necessary to keep them effective in combat. The game blends dungeon exploration with this doll-management layer, framing its progression through a darkly stylized fairy tale setting.
1,000 years ago, a tribe of powerful witches who used potent, dangerous magic lived beneath the world. One day, the witches invaded the surface world. When all seemed lost, the mystical Alice appeared. She used the witches' own magic against them and sealed them away. They say the Witch Queen still lurks beneath the land, waiting for her chance to return to power.
