Alchemist: Journey of the Soul

Small team that makes wonders! If you have ever played "We were here" game series, you will get many similar vibes in gameplay and aesthetic I would say. Still this game feels unique on its own. I felt that there is as much content as I needed. I completed with my friend in around 5 hours by getting stuck a couple times in puzzles. Price is super nice comparing to the content. We didn't get bored, puzzles were wonderful and difficulty was increasing gradually. Although the puzzles were simple and usual (eg. put the pipes in line for the steam to pass), there were so many different puzzles and sometimes you should solve many at the same time, that get you absorbed in the story and the gameplay. Abilities were simple but exciting at the same time. Story was nice and made me wanna know more about the 2 homunculus and their fate after the end of the game. I didn't see any negative issues other than some minor glitches (on elevators while moving the second person was a few feet on the air or under the elevator floor). We had super fun, I totally recommend it and I am looking forward for the next project.

fun puzzle game, lots of puzzles, escape room-esque, not as good as the first one, puzzles were a little less... puzzling have to turn off vsync and vfx check box or the game is super laggy

Nice puzzle game, except for the bad save system. On the other hand, the game is forgiving enough so that you don't really need to save manually anyway. Rating: ★★★★☆

Overall had a very nice time playing this with a friend. I rarely leave reviews but honestly this game deserves much better than to be stuck at "mixed" here on steam so here we are. While it's possible to play it alone, I suggest co-op if you've got a buddy to go along for the ride. If you're looking for some chill puzzling together you'll have a nice time! Some small notes; -Had a couple issues with the control setup initially (controller movement was reversed?? and for keyboard it wouldn't pick up rewiring them. Maybe because I use Azerty, so I just stuck with default keyboard while trail-erroring some of the inputs.) - The swinging/spiderman rope was sometimes a bit clunky. Maybe a skill issue but regularly couldn't reach the further platforms and fell down. - Puzzles were recognizeable but a nice mix between simple and more challenging. You can tell they tried taking inspiration from existing things but twist them to make them fit the game (in a good way). - Lovely graphics, pretty artstyle for the visuals. Love the visual direction. - Felt like they wanted to add a little bit more story with that last cutscene(?) but it's not really something that was present during the rest of the game. Could be cool to try incorporate it more in a future game to give it a bit more flesh (and a more coherent world setup) than just "puzzle to puzzle to puzzle" but at the same time, the escape-room feel is exactly what this is so it's not per se necessary.

Хорошая игра на пару вечеров, но не хватает войс чата для атмосферности

Cute, chill, challenging, beautiful. Nice game altogether! Recommended :)

Very good game! I accidently found it on TikTok and convinced my girlfriend that we need to buy it! At least to support the developers. But now I already recomended it to several of my friends! Hope, they will play too. We played for about ~7 hours together with my girlfriend. The quests are quite enteirtaining, challenging, but not too complicated - so the story does not stuck on them. While playing, we were eager to explore the further puzzles. The game is very involving. I am looking forward to see the games that the studio will make.

Its a great game. I found the mix of the audio, gameplay elements, game loop and story to be well balanced out. The puzzles are not difficult, and the game progresses nicely. My only issue with this game was the lack of a sprinting function, so you have to walk everywhere. This on its own is not a big issue, but it gets annoying on some puzzles where you need to go back and forth. Aside from that I had a lot of fun.
