- once you can skip class (by getting BAD STUDENT 4) go to the gardens or forest to meet bugbear and and choose accept to enter route
- meet bugbear at lunch/freetime for the 2nd meeting
- then approach him again during class (make sure you have 10 STR to be able to ask abt his smile for his success? end) ask his real name two times for crypto question
- during crypto choose the bugbear option, if you dont get the question you wont be able to continue his route (for me i kept retrying till i got crypto question)
- go to the library at 8pm after succesfully picking bugbear option
- 5th meeting is guaranteed at night after the library meeting
Okay how do you guys do Darcy route he had no instruction on how. just like eris but the good thing is i got eris ending finely. How do you guys do his story TvT
hello! I believe it is partially listed on the guide atm if you click his name under the characters section (darcy leveque), best bet is signing up for his classes though and talking to him every chance you get? and I think just choosing the generally nice answers should get his good route! (I feel I made his answers pretty straightforward but if you have specific questions lmk, hope this helps!)
I for the life of me can't manage to even start Huxley's 2nd interaction, I keep skipping class and chasing her during lunch to no avail, and whenever I go to her 3 spots after skipping class I keep encountering either Titus, Ivy, Simon or Bugbear. Especially Bugbear who really likes to pursue me wherever I go. If anyone knows how to get her route pls do help TvT
After completing both Siri and Eleni's good routes (and replaying Elani's to get the secret ending) I am unable to get to Siri's secret ending (and his 4th photo). Is there some additional thing I need to do?
I got the 4th image from the time I first encountered him. Make sure not to choose him for anything until you have atleast 10 strength. I did this by trying my luck eating the random mushrooms for strength boosts. Then meet him and go through the dialogue in that unknown part of the school you somehow wander into. Pick the top option that sounds the most confident and you'll get the image.
great game but i can never get the crypto question for bugbear is there anyway to fix that? ive gotten it before at random but never when i actually try for him Update i got it his route is great loved how different it is then everything else
"There is research to dictate the existence of alternate timelines and universes." "Sometime and somewhere we shall surely meet in another world." - ??????? Good end
Having played around 40% of the routes, my impression is that this game has some interesting background lore and is great for replayability. Love the pixel portrait art and varied backgrounds. Music got a bit repetitive after a few rounds, but was nice for the most part. I like that you can choose to use they/them pronouns and the presence of a few nonbinary characters.
Favorite routes were: Bugbear and Huxley. On the other hand, my expectations were really... turned around in the Eleni/Sirius route... haha...
Also, I think most of the routes I encountered turned out to be platonic (not necessarily a bad thing, just surprising). Although getting bro-zoned by Ivy hurt a little ;_;
I'm surprised this game hasn't gotten more popular. I think I would refer to this game as SaintSpell for short when searching online for fan content/discussions.
[Edit after having played more routes]: Here are some more thoughts with possible vague spoilers.
I love how certain characters will remember things from previous rounds. Wished that the game's narrative timeline was a bit longer; I know there would be a lot (29!) of characters to scale. Could open some room for developing episodic releases!
I thought Aspen's route was nice. His design reminds me of Ky from Guilty Gear 1 and Mikleo from Tales of Zestiria.
Pursued Eleni route again because :^) but also... what was that 3rd ending
Had to take shrooms to get on Arbor's route. That sure was somethin.
Old Dude consistently appears in the bathhouse every time I play LOL, but I have not pursued this strange person yet.
lmao i've been trying for bugbear's route 10 times in a row, i have alchemy, astro, crypto, comb and def, and my dorm is bellatrix but for some reason my strength is only 5 on mon and when i do get his route i asked about his name and smile but the crypto question was never asked, pls help :( Edi: Nevermind! it was a bug, maybe because i kept retrying. if ur having this problem, just exit and restart ur pc
you can play it on android with joiplay, just download joiplay and the 'joiplay renpy extension', im not good at explaining so just search up a tutorial
I love the game so much. I like how the MC can be gender-neutral, tall/short, and etc. I actually first came here for the art and story. I didn't even realize it was a romance game and that there were a lot of routes and characters, it made me more interested. I also love the fact there are male, female and nonbinary love interests.
Thank you for the creators who made this made this game, I appreciate you guys! <3
this is my first time playing and i loved it so much i wanted to leave a review
this is definitely my ideal type of game and i love it, the pixel art is very nice and it reminds me of another indie called Lieat and it gives me a very comfortable feeling. I definitely recommend this game to anyone who wants to try it, it is very detailed and made with a lot of effort and love.
Is it possible that Bugbear was inspired in part by Kovit in Rebecca Schaeffer's Not Even Bones story? He reminds me so much of him. Those are two characters that truly terrify me.
YOU CAN FIND BUGBEAR AT TIMES IN GARDEN, FOREST(exercise or practice magic), INFIRIMARY(check up) OR BATH HOUSE YOU CAN ALSO SKIP A CLASS AND GO TO ONE OF THE LOCATIONS I SAID ABOVE OH AND ALSO ACCEPT HIS REQUEST
(im so sorry if this comment seemt rude i just really wanted to answer your question)
Okay, Okay.. writing that down... But when do you first encounter him? I looked for him for a while and I just can't find him! (sorry for all the questions!! )
I played route of other characters and the game, the art, the music are sooo cute. But Bugbear is my reason to play this game, finally got his success ending 😭✨!! And i'm obsessed with that. I saw a little horror besides, so scared but so excitingg though it seems not happy 🙃 (when Bugbear's route was released, i imagined a very very happy ending). However, BUGBEAR'S SUCCESS ENDING MAKES ME WATCH IT AGAIN AND AGAINNN ✨ LOVE THIS GAME.

(I feel I made his answers pretty straightforward but if you have questions lmk, hope this helps!)
Death event spoiler?
There's a random event that was not written in the guide
where the MC wakes up at midnight and takes a walk to a bloody fountain garden. If the MC wishes to proceed, you will find Luca(?) who will then cause you death.
hello! I've been engrossed in the beautiful setting and the characters. I understand that fanart is appreciated but I was wondering if making self insert fanart (OC x character) with the characters are allowed? if not, I completely understand and it's ok! I would like to ask for permission first before proceeding
hello, I think it would be safest to ask the owner of whichever character you wish to draw directly as each might have their own comfort level about this!
hello! this isn't quite the final (still some clean ups, content, cgs, music gallery, etc) but indeed all the characters! thank you for your interest \o/!!
Thank you for answering! also will this be the final game you make of this type or will there be more similar content from you in the future? just curious since I really enjoyed this game <3
hello! it is partially listed on the guide atm just not complete I think? but just choosing the generally nice answers as Nineku said should get his good end! (I feel I made his answers pretty straightforward but if you have specific questions lmk)
SSpell's has stolen my attention for weeks now. I'm dragging my feet finishing it because I grew attached to so many characters (Eris <3 my loovvee) & don't want it to end! The large, diverse cast & storylines combined with the dreamy pixel art is just so much fun. One route could be cute & silly, another serious or spooky, and so on! I'm really thankful for all who put their effort in to this unique sim!!

Great game, but whenever I download the game and exit, it always disappears from my files, is this normal?
is there anywhere I can find some tips or guides?I just can't figure out bugbear's route...
there is a guide but im also struggling with it
heres what i did to get his route/good end:
- once you can skip class (by getting BAD STUDENT 4) go to the gardens or forest to meet bugbear and and choose accept to enter route
- meet bugbear at lunch/freetime for the 2nd meeting
- then approach him again during class (make sure you have 10 STR to be able to ask abt his smile for his success? end) ask his real name two times for crypto question
- during crypto choose the bugbear option, if you dont get the question you wont be able to continue his route (for me i kept retrying till i got crypto question)
- go to the library at 8pm after succesfully picking bugbear option
- 5th meeting is guaranteed at night after the library meeting
thank you!!

why did i get killed by bugbear?!! that scared me sb PLSS
Help so like does bugbear's route has a 4th art? And how do you get it cause I've trying to look for it since it says Image 4 of 4 locked.
Yes and on how to get it is when you finally reached the weekend event for bugbear, so just keep pressing "let it happen" and yeah
I see thank you very much
No problem
(spoiler)
is it the one with us and him bloody?
yes
How did you guys do that I did the same and pick let it happen all the way through but the 4th cg still didn't appear?
not really sure but have you ever asked bugbear if he can smile normally?
yes
yes, i suggest following the guide to get it! :)
no, if you success in spinel route, he will ask you will you marry him

meanwhile me: i mean i didn't really need to sleep anyways
IKR Same😭 and I'm still trying to get his route
not what i meant, i meant it scared the shit outta me
ive been trying so hard but his route wont pop up
Is it possible that Bugbear was inspired in part by Kovit in Rebecca Schaeffer's Not Even Bones story? He reminds me so much of him. Those are two characters that truly terrify me.
I wanna get all the endings but... I CAN'T FOR THE LOVE OF ME FIND BUGBEAR!! WHERE IS HE?? WHERE ARE YOU BUGBEAR??????
YOU CAN FIND BUGBEAR AT TIMES IN GARDEN, FOREST(exercise or practice magic), INFIRIMARY(check up) OR BATH HOUSE YOU CAN ALSO SKIP A CLASS AND GO TO ONE OF THE LOCATIONS I SAID ABOVE OH AND ALSO ACCEPT HIS REQUEST
(im so sorry if this comment seemt rude i just really wanted to answer your question)
THANK YOU SO MUCH (and you didn't seem rude! I really appreciate it) But could you explain what you mean by request..? I'm kinda confused, sorry!
he’s gonna ask you if you want to have some fun with him do accept it if you really wanna go to the route!
(the reason why I thought my comment was rude was because i typed in all caps)
Okay, Okay.. writing that down... But when do you first encounter him? I looked for him for a while and I just can't find him! (sorry for all the questions!! )
Hey sorry for the late response! um have you ever enrolled in bellatrix? just asking
i had to get bad student points and then skipped class to go to one of his spots
I keep finding him but he won't ask me that question. what do I do?
just skip classes! and just go to either forest, library, infirmary or garden
AGHH everything abt this game is so well done!!!! I LOVE BUGBEAR TO BITS!!!! his route is!!!! <3333333
I played route of other characters and the game, the art, the music are sooo cute. But Bugbear is my reason to play this game, finally got his success ending 😭✨!! And i'm obsessed with that.

However, BUGBEAR'S SUCCESS ENDING MAKES ME WATCH IT AGAIN AND AGAINNN ✨ LOVE THIS GAME.
How did you do to get his success ending??? i only got the failed one....
all you gotta do is let it happen
you have to ask bugbear abt his smile along w his real name at the 3rd meeting (you need to have 10 STR to ask it) then you'll get the success end
how do you get luca's good ending?
Question how do you get Alucain's good ending, mine kepts on failing for some reason
try getting in sirius
it might work
I’m not sure if I’ve done something wrong but Tuesday keeps repeating and I’m not sure why?
probably a bug
a bugbear
OMG THAT WAS A GOOD ONE
thank you(◡ ‿ ◡ ✿)
I hope it has been fixed now though
Does Darcy have a part in the Saint Spell guide? I can't seem to find his. Can I also ask how to get his route and good end ?
hello! I believe it is partially listed on the guide atm if you click his name under the characters section (darcy leveque), best bet is signing up for his classes though and talking to him every chance you get? and I think just choosing the generally nice answers should get his good route! (I feel I made his answers pretty straightforward but if you have questions lmk, hope this helps!)
Aww thank you for helping me :))
I FUCKING LOVE ERIS I LOVE HIMM
i made an account just to say that its very relatable
i am shitting tears. devastated, grieving, crying, having a break down, all because of luca's ending
same here,,,
Why is it only one week?
Is there a good ending to bugbears route? I thought I did everything right and followed the guide but failed ☹
that's the "good" ending :3
dam i was hopping we could be killers together but ite if that's it then okay
awwhh i rlly do like him but its expected
wait was his name ever revealed? i asked for his name but he never said it...
Will you guys add more route endings or new character interactions in the future?
Death event spoiler?
There's a random event that was not written in the guide where the MC wakes up at midnight and takes a walk to a bloody fountain garden. If the MC wishes to proceed, you will find Luca(?) who will then cause you death.Aaa did you do anything of note to trigger that? I wanna check it out for myself but idk how TT
It seems to be a random event.I failed to trigger it for the second time under the same conditions.
I happen to be stocking on charisma every time that happened to me

This game is amazing!! The art really great and I loved Eris. This game was so much fun I wish there was more
I cannot for the life of me get bugbears good end?? They’re the only ending I haven’t gotten yet and I cant seem to figure it out, someone help T-T
Hii just here to ask if this is the final version of the game, will there be no more new characters or routes?
hello! this isn't quite the final (still some clean ups, content, cgs, music gallery, etc) but indeed all the characters! thank you for your interest \o/!!
Thank you for answering! also will this be the final game you make of this type or will there be more similar content from you in the future? just curious since I really enjoyed this game <3
can anyone help me with Darcy route ? The guide seems to exclude him
well i think you just need to be nice to him and meet him in the tea club
hello! it is partially listed on the guide atm just not complete I think? but just choosing the generally nice answers as Nineku said should get his good end! (I feel I made his answers pretty straightforward but if you have specific questions lmk)

Quick Question. how do i start Eleni's route? I've been trying for an hour and nothing has worked.
you have to keep trying to meet her during class and lunch, but make sure you have HIGH charisma before the event pops up
