tldr: If thinking of buying, hold out for a sale. It's kinda buggy : egs >sales desk occasionally gives a bugged negative value result >when you try to up or down the position of items in production queues on some productions desks, it'll move the item somewhere in the queue other than what you wanted >when moving rooms around sometimes items within the room won't be moved with the room and will be left in untouchable limbo. Mostly the game involves: > creating mushrooms and herbs > producting potions from combinations of said mushrooms and herbs > selling the produced potions > managing staff to do all the above > maxing fame for higher customer throughput and creating potions more appealing than the NPC opponent's potions in order to maximise chance of sales. > by completing quests of a combination of the above tasks, complete the story questline to win the game. Kinda shallow gameplay wise for the regular sale price. Given the gameplay depth/graphics available I'd say it's a $AU20 at best, but it's priced at @ $AU30. If you're patient, wait for a sale price. If you don't care about the price or have no ability to control your spending impulse, by all means go for it! The current sale price of $AU11.80 is probably the game's most appropriate price point. Mind you, with my comments on pricing, keep in mind I'm someone who remembers being able to buy a can of soft drink for $1. If the bugs didn't exist, I'd probably recommend as buy.

It'S hard to say, why people dislike it so much recently. I haven't encountered any bugs, but I was frustrated at the beginning. Game isn't easy to start, it did bad work of teaching new player how to play plus tutorial is boring, but if you last thru it, real game starts and it's great. Storage system is a little bit problematic, there isn't one place to set how much resources you want to keep, you have to have at least one item in storage to start setting that up and storage is pretty much heart of production in this game, because resources takes lots of time to produce. When you get those two things you're good to go.

In an effort to play games already in my library, I finished Potion Tycoon this last week and after seeing the amount of negative reviews, I've gotta throw my two cents in here, too. As of right now, only 2% of players have the "Finished Game on Normal Difficulty" achievement, which really surprised me. It's not /that/ difficult of a game. I had some trouble with the early game difficulty curve (Pro-tip: establish a revenue source before expanding operations), but after a handful of restarts, it only took me about 25-ish hours to finish. I would say that going into this game you need to know that it's much more of a Store Manager game than it is a Potion Making game, and that's fine. There's other Potion Making games out there, and I'm sure they're able to scratch that itch. I found minimal bugs, if any. Nothing a reset couldn't fix. Overall, it was a largely positive experience, and whether you get it on sale or full price is up to your financial situation, but You could probably get about 2 good full game runs in before the gameplay gets really stale.

After about 9 hours I feel like you've seen everything the game has to offer. After that, it feels like you're spinning your wheels in the mud, because the game lacks the granular information and control you'd need to really optimize and automate processes. My biggest criticism is that the late-game technologies feel sort of pointless because money already felt pretty much meaningless by the time I was only midway up the research tree, and the late-game technologies don't feel particularly well planned-out or impactful for gameplay as whole. The small size of the building you're operating in is frustrating, and the "advanced construction" research doesn't actually expand the size of your build boundary like I originally thought it would. Overall, this is a competent and enjoyable incremental game with aspirations of being an automation game. It lacks the depth and granularity necessary to approach some of the big names in the automation genre, but it's worthwhile time for money spent. With about 11 hours of gameplay in a single run under my belt, I feel like I've seen everything it has to offer, and I'm satisfied with it.

Started with a cauldron and a dream. Ended up becoming kingmaker. Hire weirdos. Mix monster toe. Outsell rivals. Gameplay? deep. Systems? satisfying. Vibe? Cozy chaos. UI's clunky early on. Late game slows down in master diff. But once it clicks, it clicks. Perfect for fans of management sims with a magical twist. Bubbling fun. 4/5 potions. Would concoct again.
