Mages of Mystralia sequel/prequel being considered

Mages of Mystralia is coming to Switch on Jan. 29th, 2019, and Borealys Games is very excited for the launch. Hopefully the game finds an audience on Switch, because the dev team is already considering some sort of sequel? Check out Borealys Games' Patric Mondou discussing the idea below.

Yes! Sequel or prequel, we’re not sure yet. One frustrating thing about a very systemic feature (such as Mages’s spell crafting system), is that it takes a while to develop (for a small team, at least). On the way, you get plenty of new ideas for it and once you actually finish it, you discover again tons of new applications and possibilities for that system. In Mages, we rebooted the whole spell crafting system twice. When we shipped on PC, we felt like we had only scratched the surface; that the system was not pushed to its limit with the proper enemy designs and puzzle designs. We addressed some of those flaws in a patch when we added the Archmage mode, but we couldn’t do much. We want our next game in the Mystralia franchise to explore other avenues that we previously considered for the spell system. We trust it will turn out to be very different Mages, yet retain its creative approach to solving puzzles and combat situations.
