Potion Craft: Alchemist Simulator Reviews
Potion Craft is bound to be a gem for the right audience and is ideal for dedicated completionist crafters who enjoy sim games with strategic elements and cosy, magical aesthetics. It's a heady concoction, just one that doesn't go down very well on Switch.
Potion Craft: Alchemist Simulator simulates the life of a novice alchemist trying to pave his way to fame and glory discovery after discovery. As in real life, it requires dedication and perseverance, which do not always go hand in hand with casual game philosophy. The system of moving along the alchemical map will entice you to experiment for a few hours in search of the ultimate formula, but an uninspired endgame relying on grinding might turn away even the most ambitious alchemists. If you're looking for an original sandbox puzzler and aren't afraid of repetitive gameplay, it's definite-ly an interesting game.

Well balanced potion with a speck of kind humor, a pinch of captivating mechanics, and a generous fistful of a lovely art style.

Potion Craft lets players put on their chemist hats and strategically brew a plethora of potions. A medieval backdrop provides a casual environment to discover new recipes, earn some coin, and become a master alchemist.
Potion Craft: Alchemist Simulator would probably have made do with just its magical environment, but luckily it turned out to be a clever, abstract alchemy simulator that we can probably expect big things from when it reaches the final version. If you like the rough-and-tumble of running a business, its finances and controlling employees, the game probably won't interest you, because it's not really a classic business simulator. I've played similar games, but none have been quite the same and yet completely different from others with a similar idea. Sometimes I felt like I was doing the same thing over and over again, but that was only until I figured out how to do it more efficiently. By being an alpha version, there's not as much actual gameplay, but that will hopefully change soon and I believe the game has a lot of potential. Potion Craft is available on Steam for €12.49. The price is relevant and for how much the game costs, it can bring you a lot of hours of fun.

If you ever looked at a witch in a storybook or film and wondered if you could make spells to help people (or hinder them, depending on your personal vendettas, I guess), then Potion Craft: Alchemist Simulator might just be the game for you.
Potion Craft is a nice and entertaining game to enjoy moments of relaxation through routine, but can frustrate in longer play sessions.

Potion Craft is the best alchemy game on the market. If you’re a fan of alchemy in games like Skyrim but wish there was more to it, you might find that there’s no better way to kill an hour or two than by opening up Potion Craft and running your quaint little shop.
