Palaverous Games released a new game calledThe Apprentice’s Test and the version is 1.5. The game’s story is about You are Felix Einhart, magi-in-training of the 7th ring of the Northern Sub-Tower of the Magna Academy of Magic. Renowned prodigy. Star pupil. Cocky moron. Having nearly completed one’s studies, each magician trainee is required to present the evaluation committee with some form of original research such as a thesis, an invention, or displaying an ability to perform advanced form of magical feats. In short, you are required to prove you are capable adult magi. As the grudgingly-recognized top student of the Sub-Tower, there were a wealth of specializations you could have focused on to build your presentation. But a passing grade was simply not enough, you just had to try and find something extraordinary to work on. For once, it was not – exclusively – your ego prompting you to show off; you were after the perks granted to particularly outstanding graduates, chief among them the privilege of choosing one’s own assignments. For that, you would need something out of the norm… You began to procure bibliography on advanced magical arts, most deemed not safe for uninitiated students to peruse. Sure, it was against the rules, but if you could prove you could master it, it would be all the more impressive. One night, as you hung around your guardian’s quarters, you noticed an extremely old and important-looking book on her desk, the kind she is often asked to handle and transport. Using a small trick of your own invention, you made a quick copy of the book and set about studying it on your free time. It took four months just to learn how to read the damn thing, but you finally cracked its code and the reward was more than worth it. It was an old grimoire detailing the usage of time manipulation spells, one of if not the rarest and most complex schools of magic. This was it.
