When is Beltane
I saw it's "usually" on May 1st, but is it truly? I only need one more achievement.

Devs hate old-fashioned people?
"Old-Fashioned - Loses sanity faster. They stay at the back of the room and no one talks to them, and that's a good thing. "
WTF? Really?
EDIT: According to one commenter, this is because the devs are French, and the word "ringard" translates as "uncool because of old-fashioned tastes." Apparently, within French culture it's considered normal and acceptable to bully people over "old-fashioned tastes."
Is this true? Because this would make this waaay worse....

Do trophy rooms give adjacency bonuses if they are connected to the second floor of a building and have no exit there?
Title. Just wondering if they only count if the trophy room has an exit, or if you can connect them to the second floor of an interdimensional room and still benefit.

Patch to stop stuck characters working?
Did the patch stop characters from being stuck in your experience so far?
From my past experience, whenever I build two separate buildings, characters want to move across through the air (which obviously doesn't work).

Before Moving On, Please Add Workshop Support
See the title. I love this game, I've spent quite a lot of time on it. It would be amazing if the other fans of this game could keep it alive by making mods for it. I'm begging you to consider this. I understand that it's a lot of work, but just adding hooks for people to add new cards for equipment and furniture/pets could potentially be huge. Or even new races--half-dwarves, for instance?
The possibilities are literally endless, and that's why I'm hoping that you can fulfill this request....

Proto Goblin Update
Mar 18
Hello, headmasters and headmistresses of magic schools! :cutedragon:
It’s been a long time! Sorry for the long silence. Here’s a small balance and bug-fix update (see the non-exhaustive list at the bottom of this post). This is also a technical update, paving the way for a major expansion coming later this year. This expansion will allow us to deliver the final, definitive version of Spellcaster University.
This game has been a labor of love for us, but the time has come to move on to new video game projects. This expansion will let us wrap up the adventure properly.
A quick word as well for those who interacted with us throughout development: for the past two years, we’ve been very quiet. Various family reasons (and perhaps, paradoxically, a need to take a breather after the incredible reception Spellcaster University received—thank you again!) led us to gradually step back from communication, though not from development, which continued at a slower pace.
For a long time, we hesitated to create an expansion for Spellcaster University. We had plenty of ideas but feared overloading an already rich game. However, as time passed, we refined our vision and arrived at something we truly like. I’ll be sharing some visuals of what’s coming “soon.”

- Increases the effects (both positive and negative) of the Tentacle artifact by 20%.
- Doubles the effect of the Old-fashioned trait.
- Doubles the effect of the Ugly trait.

- Doubles the effect of the Unshakable trait.
- Doubles the effect of the Resilient trait (outside of dungeons).

- Increases the effect of the Green Dragon's Blessing by approximately 30%.
- Increases the effect of the Blue Dragon's Blessing by approximately 30%.
- Increases the effect of the Black Dragon's Blessing by approximately 30%.
- Increases the effect of the Purple Dragon's Blessing by approximately 30%.
- Increases the effect of the White Dragon's Blessing by approximately 30%.
- Increases the effect of the Turquoise Dragon's Blessing by approximately 30%.
- The Bloody Curse now accelerates reputation loss by 20% instead of 10%.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed a bug that caused excessive CPU usage when displaying the in-game date.
- The student information panel no longer briefly appears with incorrect stats before updating on the first frame.
- In all languages (except French), fixed a missing space in the graduation ceremony text.
- Reduced the risk of students getting stuck on certain maps (especially in the mountain and volcano).
- General optimization by disabling unnecessary background debugging tools.

PLEASE let us delete rooms
Dear devs... I don't care what the cost is. I have had cards placed accidentally and it basically wrecked my university goals. If you only ever change one thing, please allow us to delete rooms.

Speed for guinea pigs rests when launching on-going map ? / Remise à zéro de la vitesse des cochons d'inde lorsqu'on lance une carte en cours ?
Bonjour,
Je joue très occasionnellement et je dois souvent faire des pauses quand je joue une campagne (en mode normal, je suis une quiche et je joue pour me faire plaisir). J'essaie d'optimiser un peu la vitesse de chargement des cochons d'inde pour ralentir le plus possible l'avancée des forces du mal. Mais j'ai l'impression que lorsque je quitte la carte, à un moment où j'arrive à peu près à bien ralentir les forces du mal et avoir des cochons d'inde régulièrement, puis que j'y retourne, mes co...

Too much RNG sadly
I really want to like the game. But when one of the stars it offers me all depend on arcane (one of the two you can't get from visiting people) and I haven't gotten any of the base buildings through luck, I'm just f'ed out of that star.

Assign Teacher
How does the Assign Teacher function work. It only ever seems to give me the choice to assign the same teacher. I even built an identical room to see if the teacher had to be the same type, but it still didn't give me any options? Is it basically a non-functioning feature?...

Buy on sale if you're interested. It's fine enough, if a bit underbaked, may get the best results if you mess with the settings instead of playing on the default one. I only played on the standard settings, so my review only reflects that.Overall it's just not what I was looking for from a game with this theme. What you build is limited by what random cards you draw, individual students and teachers do not matter too much and you don't even really have time to get attached to them because the game is split into small segments where you have to leave and start over from scratch (excluding some passive bonuses and modifiers) when the progress bar on the top of the screen fills up.
There are some mechanics like the university being attacked and a whole dungeon system, but they are woefully underutilized. You'll hardly ever get attacked unless you ignore the reputation system or go out of your way to antagonize a faction, and dungeons only show up like once or twice per "run" instead of being a core feature.
There are a few random events but not nearly enough, and even seasonal ones don't seem to repeat, so even within one run, the latter half usually becomes more plain and empty.

Not recommending that you buy it, its still bugged.. Students getting stuck in the ground for some reasons I still don't understand? Anyway was it that hard to just make a ground check happening like every 30 sec or 1 min that unblocks students? It can't be that hard right?
