Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask

The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 5: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 1.43/day in the week to Jul 30 → 0.71/day in the week after.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,420 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.

Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

After the pointless Rysa 3 and incomprehensible Sophie 2 comes Yumia, in a new engine in an attempt to modernize the series and bring in new players. It is a promising but average attempt. In a departure, the story is darker and more serious with tinges of moral ambiguity that give the game a sense of depth. The tone of the story is good, but execution needed work. If the player does not follow the main story line to a tee, the story feels disjointed. Sometimes the player can learn more than the characters because when straying off the path, it is possible to uncover future plot points before their time. Yumia herself is a weakness. She has no personality. In the first ten minutes of Resleriana, the player knows more about the two main characters than 50 hours with Yumia. The issue is with the dialog choices. They are meant to give the player choice in her personality, but play much like the paragon/renegade of Mass Effect with its green/blue/red system. It plays the same way with the ending being basically the same much like ME3. The other characters in Yumia's menagerie are for the most part decent and more interesting than the main character herself. True, each are stereotypes, but most have satisfying backstories. The only irritating one is the cowardly furry. The NPCs add the flavor of the story, except the hatted halflings, which if they never show up again would still be too soon for them. Technically this game is a mess. It is a cross of the Atelier game and a Bethesda Fallout game. It has crafting, bugs, base building, crashes, parkour exploration, and falls through the terrain. Given the series move to Unreal, it plays smoothly enough but has odd graphical glitches with sound pop ins that are annoying. Many issues are rookie coding mistakes. Other things, the crafting is both too generic and too complex. There is so much to do that it took two playthroughs to uncover all of them. As the same time, there is so much automation, that it comes down to pressing a few button to make anything, if the game doesn't crash. The puzzles are varied, short and plentiful and do their job well enough to break up the game play to keep the grind from being tedious. The levels vary from fun to frustrating, with the last stage the best, slick and feel like .Hack or Xenosaga, and the one before it being a tedious slog of find the correct path to advance is a sea of steampunk brown featureless messes. Overall, it is refreshing series change littered with good ideas but lots of technical issues that need resolved in future efforts.
