Potion Craft: Alchemist Simulator is a thoughtful, intelligent crafting title that offers a deeply-robust gameplay experience. Players take on the role of an alchemist in Medieval times, gathering herbs for recipes, forming bonds with merchants and experimenting with potion combinations to create the Philosopher's Stone. Interacting with ingredients to see what combinations are most effective is at the heart of the crafting system and failure is rewarded as players learn from their mistakes.


What we like:
  • Unique crafting system
  • No punishment for failure
  • Thoughtful and intelligent game design
  • Visually appealing artistry and cozy atmosphere
What could be improved:
  • Limited access to ingredients due to limited resources and money-management
  • Haggling can affect shop reputation over time
