The Witch series has produced some great games! However, let's not pretend to be kids, and pretend they are all Witch
It was a phone game developed by a third-party studio (Breakpoint), and being a phone game in 2007 meant it wasn't as much of an iPhone game as we find it today. It was a bad Java experience built for old phones that were restricted to only one command at a time, because those calls couldn't support you hitting both left and right in the directions at the same time.
It also had a dog glow and some noticeable effects that could make your eyes pop, but somehow that is the next little worry around a major design flaw.
You can see it working in this video minimme below.
