Alchemist: The Potion Monger

I really enjoyed this game. Nice balance of potion crafting, problem solving, combat, and even some platforming. These are all things I enjoy, and the combination has been my favorite for this type of game so far. It's exactly the kind of game I want play! I think the most fair and unbiased thing I can say, is that there are some great foundations, but a noticeable lack of polish. One save file glitched out after losing internet, and all alchemy stations were removed with no way to buy them back. The other made a late game option and achievement impossible. Little bugs and wonky movements are speckled here and there, and the overall graphics could have been easier on the eyes. Inventory was a little irritating to balance between potions and ingredients, and movement was a little slow if you didn't pick a cat. All that said, I loved the crafting interface! Giving the player so many options and tools to create what you needed using the Aspect Table was, in my opinion, the most unique and interesting part of the game. Finding clever ways to make more complex potions with ingredients you have an excess of was really fun! The selection of potions was also a real treat! When I play a game with potions, I see them as a physical embodiment of magic or superpowers, but most games lean towards subtle improvements... not the case here. Lots of abilities and effects to discover! With a little more polish, "quality of life" adjustments, and some more content, this game could have been legitimately one of my favorites. Thanks to the developer for this. It honestly inspires me to make a game of my own, to see if other parts of games I love could get the same level of attention that you have given! Well done!!

Best alchemist/ potion making game on steam. The elements system is really good and how you alter ingredients really got my sucked in better than any other similar game. Being able to test out your potions is a whole lot of fun too. Could do with some balance updates as some of the potions are far too strong for the cost but still great fun.

One of the best alchemist simulators to date! AND I LOVE DE WITTLE PETS!!
