Keep in mind: you need to find the variant once in your world to be able to transform it into it

What were we cooking?

Everything you see in Mystopia is inspired by different cultures of witchcraft. In the demo, you can build your worlds with blocks and items from three different cultures: Europe, Japan :JPN: and China :china:.
The demo will feature four beautiful tracks composed by Mazhar Mustafaolu. Whichever culture you choose to design your world around, the more of that culture's music you'll hear. You'll also be able to track your progress in the Collection Notebook and see what potions you've discovered in your Potion Book . We're also working on making the Photo Mode feel juuust right, so you can take photos like this:
We can't wait to show you what we've been working on all this time. See you on July 18th! Please also check out Weyrdlets Developed by our friends, it's a relaxing game with a virtual pet that exists both in-game and on your desktop https://store.steampowered.com/app/2366060/Weyrdlets/
