I’ve been coming back to this game several times, and lucky enough to grab a community copy. Thank you for your generosity! I’ll be playing and sharing the undoubtedly delightful experience soon~
this looks right up my alley! sadly college app prices leave me without much to spare (aahhhhh!!) so i hate to say it, but i'll have to wait for community copies to be available. if i could afford to, i'd buy it in a heartbeat <3
I think I just missed it, check is regurarly, but I havent paid enough attention, I hope to play it soon, I cannot wait to jump into another world and character from this world for a little while, it looks amazing from what I have seen and gameplay on youtube!
I know most of the comments are people asking, but I'd love an update on more community copies. :) Game looks right up my alley, but being unemployed (thanks chatgpt) means no money for games right now. :(
This looks super interesting! I’m very poor but would love to play, is there any chance you’ll add some community copies soon? (: I’d be happy to leave a rating for it
I've really enjoyed this game so far! I am still on my first season but it's a very relaxing game for me. I sometimes stress about not following the rules correctly when I play board games, but I don't stress about that with this. It's quite nice.
That's great to hear. I'm currently (slowly) reworking the rules to make it a bit less complicated. If you have any feedback you'd like to provide, I'm all ears!
Thanks so much! I'm working on an updated version of the game, and may look into making physical copies available. We will see! If you bought the game or got a community copy, you'll get an email update when the new version is done. It'll be a bit, though!
I've yet to download this game, but it's been on my radar for a while! Have you considered making a demo available for those who might be on the fence about purchasing?
I actually have! I just need to get around to it. 😅 My personal life is a little wild right now. In the meantime if you want a community copy I am adding some soon after posting this comment!
Quick Q, are there supposed to be more sets than the one I am seeing? The rules sounds like there should be others, but there is just the mentor set, at least from what I can find while reading through everything
Hi! Unfortunately no, the only sets done are the base/default set and the mentor set. I had plans for more but I started a demanding job and life got busy. I do plan on getting back to them someday, though!
I really love your game! I was really excited to hear that there are more prompt sets to play through, but then got worried when I couldn't find any information about them within the past year. I hope you're doing well!
Hey, thanks for the kind words! Yes, unfortunately I have much less time in my personal life and a new job that's pretty taxing. Someday I hope to get back to it and provide more prompt sets.
Hello, I’m new to solo RPG, and I’m so excited to have found this community! Any chance some community copies will drop soon so I can try your game? It looks like so much fun! Thank you.
Hi! I’m an educator hoping that I might be able to use this to get some reluctant friends to write this coming year. Is there a way to sign up for notification when more community copies are available? Thanks!
A new crop of community copies have been made available, email me at themagicalyearofateenagewitch@gmail.com if you aren’t able to snag a copy. Thanks for the interest!
I just wanted to say thank you for creating this awesome game and making community copies available! I'd never played any RPG before so I wasn't sure whether I'd be able to get into it, but I was completely enthralled. I'm planning to play again ASAP now I've got the rules down, and hopefully get a bit more creative with my responses :) Thanks again!
Helloo, I was wondering if there were any more community copies available? I adore the concept of this game - it sounds so heartwarming and sweet! Tysm in advance :)
This is a less sad, extra bells and whistles version of Vampire. Easy to pick up and understand, and SUPER simple to play.
My witch Stanley has learned to blow stuff up by pointing at it, then learned to nullify spells that require a constant source of magic to cast. In his FIRST THREE MONTHS.
Are you still reading this? Stop it. Buy this game if you can. The creator deserves it ☺️
My 9yo asked to play a prompt-driven RPG like Thousand Year Old Vampire, but without the "creepy theme", and a user on rpggeek.com pointed this out. Printed it last night and hoping to help her play it soon. Thanks!
I love this! Let me know if you have any questions. The rules are a little intense especially during character creation, but I hope you all enjoy it once you get going!
I would love to play this! Sorry to ask, but how often are community copies added? I really need something lighthearted and cozy like this in my life right now, haha
Hi! I don’t think there’s a way to be notified and they’re added every few days, but they go FAST. I’m adding a few extras now, if you don’t get one email themagicalyearofateenagewitch at gmail and I’ll hook you up!
Hi, thank you for the kind words! Glad you’re enjoying the game.
And thank you for sharing this project, I hadn’t heard of it yet! So when I made this game years ago, I was surprised there weren’t already more games like it. I see the similarities, but I also see how we arrive at similar places with similar inspiration.
I don’t know if the designer is aware of my little game or not, but even if they do take inspiration from Magical Year, I’m flattered. Magical Year only exists because Tim Hutchings was kind enough to allow me to use his TYOV system. Koriko looks great, I wish it success, and will look forward to getting my hands on a copy!
(And maybe it’s inspired me to do a physical release of Magical Year 2.0 down the line, we’ll seeeeee)

As a copywriter, I feel you. Someone was very generous with a $10 tip today so I’ll put a new batch up in a couple minutes! I hope you enjoy the game.
I am looking forward to it! These games are so good as writing exercises / to keep the skills up. Thank you! :)
This looks super interesting! I’m very poor but would love to play, is there any chance you’ll add some community copies soon? (: I’d be happy to leave a rating for it

Hi! Is it okay for me to ask if there will be community copies any time soon? I would love to play, but I can't afford a copy right now. Thanks!

It's such a beautiful full colour work. Is there a physical copy or print on demand available?

That's incredibly appreciated!! I'll take a flip through and see what's what, thank you for your kindness!
I really love this game and would love to donate a few community copies. Is the best way to add extra $10 donations on top of a new purchase?
Thanks for your kindness! I’m looking into how I can add an option for just donating community copies.
Quick Q, are there supposed to be more sets than the one I am seeing? The rules sounds like there should be others, but there is just the mentor set, at least from what I can find while reading through everything
Hi! Unfortunately no, the only sets done are the base/default set and the mentor set. I had plans for more but I started a demanding job and life got busy. I do plan on getting back to them someday, though!
Oh my this looks just up my alley I love witchy things and have just been getting into solo journaling, are any more community copies going to happen?

Thank you! I was able to get one. I can’t wait to try this plan this school year.
If you can, please let me know how it goes!
