Sabrina the Teenage Witch: A Twitch in Time!

released on Apr 30, 2001

Sabrina has been delighting fans with her benign brand of arcane mischief since she was first featured as an Archie comics character in the late 1960s. This title is based directly on the version of the character from Sabrina: The Teenage Witch on ABC and the WB networks. Melissa Joan Hart provides the voice and likeness of Sabrina in this 3D adventure based on the live-action television series. A third-person perspective allows players to guide Sabrina around a large interactive game environment. Real-time gameplay keeps the challenges fresh and the action moving. Sabrina's aunts and her cat Salem are also featured in the game. The game's plot is about when Salem was trying to get his file from the Witches' Council he broke a clock to release Chaos. Now Sabrina has to save the day while dressing up in ridiculous outfits and fighting stationary enemies.

This game was the second to try as I had a feeling this would be really cringe, which is a bit of a shame considering I really loved the TV show and had a bit of a thing for Melissa Joan Hart.

Anyway, what we end up with here is Salem causes an issue and accidentally releases some kind of evil time monster that's about to erase all of time and history for shits and giggles and our heroine has to fight him and save the world with the help of Salem with his terrible jokes and one-liners still done well by the original voice actor, though Sabrina, played by Melissa, sounds kinda bored. Every boss battle has a intro by Salem and the main gameplay itself is far too similar to Spyro that chat pointed this out as the main collectable was gems and levels were similarly linear to the original spyro games.

To also demonstrate how cheap this game was, everyone else was voice acted by only one guy! This is only the second game and I already regret this month!

Gotta admit, I'm mad I liked it. The camera is awful, the game is insultingly easy...but the jank, the weird combat, the trivial boss fights? It captures something of the era I don't necessarily think needed capturing, but also made me feel like I was playing cursed lost media the whole way through?

Also these cutscenes would have made the game twice as good if they'd sprung for live action over the animation they used.

I'm glad proof that this game exists is on the internet.

I remember this game being a platformer where you'd shoot magic spells to defeat enemies.

Each level was based around a different time period or historic civilisation, you could also warp to different levels by using temples of some sort.

The graphics were poor and it wasn't good. The only noteworthy thing is the oddity of a "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" tie-in game existing.
