About the Game

WELCOME TO THE DARK MAGIC FEDERATION (DMF)

The world doesn’t run on miracles—it runs on middle management. At the DMF, we provide everyday solutions for everyday people. Whether a client needs to curse a noisy neighbor or "liquidate" a difficult boss, every ritual must be filed, verified, and processed through your desk first. With 5 possible endings and 90+ receipt outcomes.

YOUR DAILY OBJECTIVES

  • Process the Public: Open incoming requests from a colorful cast of disgruntled citizens. From petty hexes to life-altering rituals, it’s your job to get the paperwork right.

  • Consult the Manual: Flip through your color-coded DMF handbook to verify ritual components. Cross-reference sigils, check for smudged glyphs, and ensure every soul is accounted for.

  • Activate & Resolve: Once the ritual circle is set, trigger the magic. With 90+ unique outcomes, you’ll see exactly how your clerical work affects the mortal realm.

DEPARTMENT PROTOCOLS & PENALTIES

  • Fraud Detection: Some clients try to skip the fees with hand-drawn counterfeits. Identify the fakes and use your REPORT stamp to protect the DMF’s bottom line.

  • DMF Compliance: Accuracy is mandatory. Perform the wrong ritual or miss a counterfeit, and you’ll receive a Compliance Violation letter. The DMF doesn't do "warnings"—they do fines. Watch your seal count drop with every mistake.

  • Tactile Bureaucracy: Experience the heavy "thump" of the stamps, the mechanical glide of the receipt printer, and the satisfying "clink" of seals hitting your collection bowl.

    CLIMB THE CORPORATE LADDER

    Complete your shifts, maximize your daily earnings, and grow your wallet. As you settle into your role as a ritual clerk, the expectations will rise—but so will the rewards. The paperwork never ends... and the DMF is always watching.
