Kid Mystic never paid attention in magic school except when they were discussing fireballs, so now he's the only one who can save Tulipton in this action-packed RPG which has been completely overhauled.
Originally released in 1999, and massively updated in 2004, come celebrate the 25th (ish) anniversary of this action-RPG silliness with all-new features for 2025.
You can play the game in 1999 Mode, Classic Mode, or Modern Mode, and we tried to keep each mode true to its source. Except for that crunchy low-bitrate soundtrack. We remastered that.
1999 Mode brings you the original gameplay from Spooky Castle: The Adventures of Kid Mystic, the game you probably picked up on a bundle CD in an office store! A video game box wouldn't lie - it's the Best Fantasy Role Playing Game For The PC! But this is the most basic version of the game - blast your way through 32 levels in search of the Armageddon Sword to slay Bobby Khan and save the people of Tulipton. Just imagine how good the two enhanced versions must be if that was already the best one!
Classic Mode moves us up to the 2004 rerelease, known simply as Kid Mystic. This edition adds 16 Fairies to collect with unique bonuses and penalties, new gear to equip, and 16ish new levels to earn those fairies in, along with new bosses, enemies, and special effects. This game also introduced Challenge mode and Madcap mode (the uninformed call that New Game+), for entirely new ways to play the game.
Modern Mode is the true Enchanted Edition! On top of Classic Mode, we add 4 new levels, a set of 36 skills to upgrade your character, and 24 runes you can craft to maximize your mystic hero build. Of course, almost every level has been modified with dozens of new puzzles and enemies added to earn all this new secret stuff in the existing and new levels. And then we dug in and modernized all the little elements - water doesn't instantly kill you anymore, and every spell is useful! At least I think so. And one last special 'treat' - Brutal Mode has been added for a real challenge.
You can play the regular adventure, or Challenge* mode, in Classic, Modern, Brutal Classic, and Brutal Modern variations, or just kick back for an afternoon with 1999 mode. Whichever way you want to play, it's a whole lot of Kid Mystic.
You do have to unlock Challenge Mode by playing the adventure. The game is modern, but it's not that modern.
