“A fun little Game. It has a few bugs and hiccups here and there. I finished it to 100% it is great for a something in between when there is not much to do, but it also makes you stuck in this cozy story filled with known characters and new ones!”

— a player, Steam review · 11 hrs played“Light, straightforward game. Cute story, interesting potion mechanics. Puzzles weren't all that difficult, but if you need something in between more heavy games, this is a great fit.”
