Nine Parchments

This game is best enjoyed with friends. You progress through levels, upgrade spells and resistances, and collect cool cosmetics along the way. With spells that heal, stun, freeze, and explode—enhanced even further through coordination—you’ve got an exciting set of abilities that would make any RPG fan happy. Friendly fire is enabled, which means you can choose to PvP if you’d like, but it can also backfire if you’re grouped up or carelessly throwing out AoE spells.
For under £4 at the time of purchase, it was absolutely worth the money. I’d definitely recommend it if you have a group of friends to play with!

One of my favorite games, with 2000+ hours on Switch and however many I have here. Does a great job of having dual-stick run and gun gameplay, while having a wide range of enemies, attacks, and elemental weaknesses and resistances that are challenging but approachable for a new player while rewarding a lot of practice.

By far, it's the best as a co-op game. Unfortunately, there is no cross-play between systems. Currently (2025), PC has the most active players, followed by Switch.

Personally, in terms of how much I've enjoyed the game and how much time I've spent playing it, this is standout one of the best, most valuable game purchases I've ever made. Love to Frozenbyte for creating such an exceptional title.

Nine Parchments is a co-op action RPG where you and up to three friends play as wizard students chasing runaway spells. The magic system are fun, especially in multiplayer, where chaotic spell combos (and friendly fire!) add to the hilarity. However, the game feels too linear and quickly becomes repetitive especially after boss fights, which tend to follow a predictable pattern. While the visuals are charming and the gameplay enjoyable with friends, it lacks variety and depth for those playing alone. If you're looking for a lighthearted co-op magic romp, this one's best enjoyed with a group.

Игра по типу Magica про студентов местного хогварста,которые спасают древние манускрипты под душевный саундтрек и озвучку голоса серии TRINE.

Геймплей можно поделить на 2 настроения:

1. Боже, какая приятная игра, какие локации красивые! Заклинания такие интересные, разбираться с противниками и различными потными ситуациями реально весело. + есть кастомизация и милые персонажи, которые скрашивают и добавляют вариативности в геймплей. Особенно в ко-опе это прям супер живая игра, жду недождусь следующее прохождение!!!!

2. Жмёшь блинк чтобы спастись от рашащих буйволов, невосприимчивых ко всем элементам твоего магического арсенала, тебя выкидывает с платформы в озеро, что является инста-смертью. Кое как тебя возраждают - блинкаешься, пытаясь спастись от врагов в другой угол, но по канону опять попадаешь в пруд глубиной 3 пикселя и опять умираешь. В стрессе жизни ебашишь по столу и стискиваешь зубы пока твой тиммейт умирает от рандомного фаербола которого ты кинул во врагов но двинул мышкой на один нанодюйм влево.

в общем 7.5 неязвимых к магии противников в игре про магию из 10.
Если в хорошей компании то можно и все 8 или 9, в зависимости от не-криворукости стака

On it's own, it's a decent game. But if you are playing this as a Trine fan, you may not enjoy it.

It's closer to a rogue-lite than a sidescroller like Trine. I had fun with it.

Levels are well designed, artstyle and atmosphere follow the trine formula.

Enemy variety as well as power variety is great and lets you follow different approaches.

The major thing I didn't like was that there was no level select which forces you to start all over if you want to play a specific mission or side mission.

6/10

Really cool action packed game, love the mechanics and the way it all forms together as a game, and yes it is a very short game but it is worth it your running around as a little wizard. Yes i reccomend this game

A great and challenging game for co-op multiplayer. Love the inverted friendly fire, it's such a great mechanic! The levels are well designed and scenery beautifully changes as the game progresses.
