Hitherto: School of Swordcery and Shieldjuration

Game premise

Hitherto: School of Swordcery and Shieldjuration is a turn-based, tile-based tactics game set in a magic school where you play as a teacher. Your primary job is to train students in various types of magic to prepare them for their final exams. The game emphasizes the learning aspect of encounters rather than just winning.

Student progression

In the game, each student has a different way of earning experience while participating in battles. For instance, the nerd earns experience by dealing damage, the punk gains experience by tanking, and the goth collects experience through healing. You need to observe how each student learns best to improve their skills effectively. As students level up, you can unlock new perks that enhance both your magic and teaching methods.
