Soothing gameplay, if slightly monotonous after a while
Nice animations and design, but you quicky get tired of the few mini games Spellcorked has.
Tuve dificultades para parar de jugar a este juego, porque además de contar con una atención al detalle y una belleza visual sin comparación en Playdate, es el juego que emplea la mayor cantidad de funciones de la consola al mismo tiempo. Cada nuevo ingrediente o poción a preparar es una sorpresa en sí misma, no tanto por la función que cumplen en la (completamente ignorable) historia como por la forma que tienen de interactuar contigo. De esta forma, el juego te incita a sentir curiosidad por lo que puedas hacer si empiezas a trastear un poco con el rígido orden establecido por la narración. Creo que, en manos de un sistema de juego más abierto, Spellcorked! podría convertirse fácilmente en uno de los títulos más originales de Playdate.

I had a hard time when I tried to stop playing this, because in addition to its lavish visual style that is unmatched with anything that's on Playdate right now, it's the one game that employs most of its features. Each new ingredient or potion is a mystery to be solved, not so much for the function they serve in the (completely ignorable) story as for the way they interact with you. The game rapidly encourages you to be curious about tinkering with your components, and forget about the rigid progressión that the narrative wants you to follow. I think that, with a more open game space, Spellcorked! could easily become Playdate's most original title.
A cute little potion-making sim, but I think it was missing a little something that could really make it special as it became a chore after a while. Also, it looks nice but has by far the buggiest visual glitches I've seen from any of the Playdate Season One games thus far.
