3 | ''Witches X Warlocks'' is a fantasy DatingSim created by Nifty Visuals, released via digital distribution for free on November 1, 2020. The player takes the role of Fay Nightshade, a matchmaker who has put off studying for far too long and now requires the assistance of three (four in the DLC) romanceable characters to help them pass their exams. |
4 | |
5 | The love interests are: |
6 | * '''Zero''': Fay’s gruff poltergeist childhood friend who has a soft spot for them. |
7 | * '''Damion''': Fay’s sweet and shy Frankenstein-esque roommate. |
8 | * '''Carmilla''': A charming vampire lady who enjoys teasing Fay. |
9 | * '''Lawrence''': An option only in the DLC, he is a serious werewolf who eventually grows fond of Fay. |

12 | !!Tropes that appear in Witches X Warlocks: |
13 | * {{Animesque}}: A Japanese-style visual novel with characters drawn in a manner inspired from anime. |
14 | * BewareTheQuietOnes: Damion may be shy and anxious, but they come to Fay’s rescue on a few occasions that has Fay remarking on how unusual it is to see them so protective. |
15 | * CharacterCustomisation: The player can customise Fay’s skin colour, hair colour, and pronouns. |
16 | * ChildhoodFriends: Zero and Fay have been friends since the latter was a small child. |
17 | * CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Zero is often roped into making sure Fay isn't causing too much trouble and is often frustrated with them as a result. |
18 | * CuteWitch: Fay is a witch, and has a very cheerful, helpful and enthusiastic personality. |
19 | * DeadpanSnarker: Zero has a tendency to be very sarcastic towards Fay when they exasperate him with their antics. |
20 | * FleshGolem: Damion is made out of different spare body parts, and often has to sow themself back together. |
21 | * FriendlyNeighbourhoodVampire: Carmilla is the most obvious option, but everyone else qualifies as well due to the entire cast being made up of supernatural creatures. |
22 | * GenkiGirl: While not necessarily a girl, Fay is always happy and enthusiastic. They're also willing to spread their cheer through their matchmaking prowess. |
23 | * HelloInsertNameHere: Fay’s first name is customisable. However, their last name will always be Nightshade. |
24 | * IdiotHero: Fay has a single-minded focus on matchmaking and romance, to the point the school finals completely slipped their mind. If not for their friends' help, they would have failed. |
25 | * LesbianVampire: Or bi/pansexual vampire – it’s notable that Carmilla is the only one of the love interests to have had an old flame, which is a human girl from a long time ago. |
26 | * TheMatchmaker: Fay’s official job is helping people to fall in love and spreading joy around. It’s too bad they get so into this they forget to study for their finals until it’s a week away. |
27 | * MonsterMash: Fay’s love interests consist of a ghost, a Frankensteinian, a vampiress, and a werewolf. |
28 | * NonHumanNonBinary: Damion is a Frankensteinian creature that often has to purchase new body parts at Mr West’s store and sew themself back together. They are also non-binary and use they/them pronouns. |
29 | * OlderThanTheyLook: While the entire cast is made up of supernatural creatures and hence have lifespans numbering in the triple digits, Fay themself is mentioned to be over a century old. This may come as a surprise due to their childish and enthusiastic behaviour and appearing to be human visibly. |
30 | * OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: Lawrence is a werewolf with wolf ears in his human form. They get mistaken as cat ears by Fay, much to his chagrin. |
31 | * PerkyGoth: Fay dresses all in black and has spooky cobweb decorations in their design. They’re also very excitable and enthusiastic and wants nothing more than to help the world find love. |
32 | * RoseHairedSweetie: Damion has pink hair and is very shy and sweet. |
33 | * ShrinkingViolet: Damion is a very shy and quiet person, often stammering in their speech. |
34 | * ShoutOut: Many, many shout outs, including: |
35 | ** A sapphic vampire named {{Literature/Carmilla}}. |
36 | ** A ghost who is a close friend of the protagonist named [[WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas Zero]]. |
37 | ** A werewolf named [[Film/TheWolfMan1941 Lawrence]]. |
38 | ** A shady man named [[Literature/HerbertWestReanimator Herbert]] [[Film/ReAnimator West]] who deals in potions and body parts. |
39 | * {{Tsundere}}: Zero acts rather harshly towards the protagonist, chastising them for being an idiot one second and secretly admitting their affection the next. Zero is like this only around a love interest, as he is noticeably nicer to Damion in their scenes together. |
