The gameplay in Witch on the Holy Night is a combination of visual novel storytelling and traditional RPG elements. Players navigate through the game by making choices that affect the outcome of the story.

Llama Inn: Brooklyn, NY
Didn’t make it to Lima this year? That’s okay, Eleven Madison Park alum Erik Ramirez helms this buzzing, breezy spot under the BQE in Williamsburg, Brooklyn that has been channeling authentic Peruvian flavors since the day it opened. The menu features antichuchos of pork belly and beef heart, a selection of tiraditos and ceviches, and some great large format dishes including a killer lomo saltado (smothered in French fries and elevated by the side of addictive, whisper-thin scallion pancakes), while the bar program, overseen by beverage rock star Lynnette Marrero, gives Peruvian pisco cocktails, like the on-draft Llama Del Rey, both creative and thoughtful spotlight.

They re not just growing microgreens in the back, where you can have drinks and roast marshmallows, but composting vegetable scraps broken down by black soldier fly larvae that are then fed to crayfish. Menu highlights include Caribbean Lobster Bisque, Spanish Octopus a la Plancha with Pigeon Pea Gandules Escabeche, and their Market Fresh Catch of the Day.

Players navigate through the game by making choices that affect the outcome of the story. The RPG elements come into play during battles, where players must strategically use magic and abilities to defeat enemies. The visual novel aspect of the game is heavily focused on character development and storytelling.
