How long is The Witch's Bakery?
Two official numbers are in print, and they do not match. The studio homepage and press kit say 15 hours. The pre-release FAQ says 20 to 25 hours or more, depending on how you play and how fast you read. This page keeps both.
I opened HowLongToBeat on October 17 expecting the crowd to settle the argument. The page exists and every column — main, main plus extras, completionist — was still a dash. Zero submissions. Nintendo Life's review, quoted by OpenCritic, also says 15 hours. Steam's own completion rates explain the empty column: chapter 4 was 1.7 percent and full completion 0.5 percent. Almost nobody had filed a time.
Every number, with who said it
This game is not The Witch's House. That is a different horror title, and its hour count does not belong in this table.

Questions this page answers
How long is the demo?
The studio never posted a demo length, and the demo was removed on September 25, 2026.
Is 15 hours the main story only?
Sunny Lab did not say. The FAQ's longer range mentions play style and reading speed. Both sentences stay on the page until the studio picks one.
