Brewing a Little Magic in Hela: Of Mice & Magic
Windup
Every good witch’s workshop needs a few essentials: a bubbling cauldron, curious ingredients, and an old recipe book filled with magical brews.
In Hela: Of Mice & Magic , you’ll gather plants and other ingredients as you explore the world and bring them back to the witch’s cottage and turn them into something useful.
But brewing in Hela isn’t just about selecting a recipe from a crafting menu.
Get Hands-On With Brewing
Each recipe is its own small, interactive experience. Once you have the right ingredients, you’ll follow a specific sequence of actions to bring the brew together.
The process changes from one recipe to the next, making the witch’s workshop a place for experimentation rather than simply another crafting screen.
What you brew can help the characters you meet along the way. Remedies can also open up new possibilities for your little mouse, changing how you interact with the world and play together with others.
Curiosity Is Rewarded
Brewing is closely connected to exploring Hela’s world. That unusual plant you spotted off the path? It might be worth picking up. That ingredient hidden somewhere you weren’t supposed to climb? There may be a good reason to bring it home.
There’s plenty more bubbling away in the witch’s cauldron, and we’ll have more to share about Brewing, Remedies, and the other systems shaping your adventure as we get closer to launch.
Hela: of Mice & Magic launches December 1, 2026.
Keep Your Eyes on Triple-i

Made With a Little Mousey Love
While we’ve been busy brewing away, one of our talented community members has been working on something magical of their own — a hand-drawn Hela comic!
It’s a small story with a whole lot of love packed into every panel, and we couldn’t resist sharing it with you. We’re always delighted to see the creativity Hela inspires, and we hope you’ll enjoy this wonderful little adventure as much as we did.
