Ithya: Magic Studies pairs a customizable study space with curated music playlists—both original compositions and curated collections—to create a relaxing backdrop for work or creative projects. The hand-drawn environments and gentle progression (including discoverable spirits and room decoration) provide just enough engagement to keep you present without demanding attention. Best for anyone seeking ambient focus tools that double as cozy, low-pressure games.

Blue Turtle's Youtube playlists got me through my PhD Thesis. So happy there is now a game-like interface I can use while working. Beautiful hand drawn landscapes coupled with relaxing tracks which are great as background music for all kinds of tasks. Immediately into the game I was very happy to see there are new playlists specially composed for the game as well as the Youtube playlists I've come to know. I am looking forward to using this during my day-to-day work.

I bought this game, thinking it wouldn't do much for me like so many other study games before it, and I'd get a few minutes in before uninstalling.

Well it's been 3 hours, I've rewritten two chapters, and created one whole character bio for a story I'm writing.
Found two forest spirits, decorated my little house a little, and I'm so impressed.

First of all, art style is GORGEOUS, I could sit and stare at it forever.
Secondly, the music goes so hard, I've been listening mostly to the forest trails playlist, but the magic studies one is so good too.
AND THERES NO AI, PRAISE BE I'M SO GRATEFUL

I really appreciate the inclusion of a checklist and pomodoro timer, as someone who uses both of these in my main workflow, it's so helpful to have both in one place.
Ticking things off, and gaining xp gives me such a sense of accomplishment, I love it.
And I appreciate how the pomodoro timer actually tells you when it's done, it sounds silly but my previous one didn't and it bugged me to no end.

All in all, excited to continue exploring this world while I work. 10/10

I never leave reviews on Steam but this app is awesome. It runs fantastic on the Steam Deck. Ithya is going to be my work buddy for the foreseeable future. Thank you for this wonderful experience.

Wishlist:
- Less harsh timer sounds
- Collectible timer sounds (bells and other environment things)
- Hydration reminder
- iPad release (please please please)
