About
You are an apothecary.
Prescribe the right medicine according to the conditions of the patients who visit you.
In your workshop, you only have a manual written in a fictional language.
You must decipher the fictional language to concoct and prescribe the medicine.
Test the effects directly on patients to confirm them. Even if you fail, you can retry on another run.
Aim for the perfect treatment—or perhaps the perfect mistake in prescribing?
Casual fictional language deciphering
Compact volume for easy play
Multiple endings
Decipher the fictional language in the manual
Form hypotheses in various ways, test them, and confirm the correct translations
Enter translations yourself word by word. The same words will be auto-filled
Mix and prescribe medicines
Each day, patients will visit. Mix and prescribe medicines according to their conditions.
Hints for mixing and prescribing methods are in the manual. Translate carefully.
Sometimes you’ll need to make predictions to mix and prescribe. Then verify the correctness of your translation.
There is also a dark side: testing medicines on patients to check their effects.
Multiple playthroughs
Translation progress and discovered medicines carry over between runs
Even if you fail in your first run, carry over your knowledge and challenge the next one

言語解読系ゲームの入口にぴったり! なんとなくで新しい薬ができるので、それを患者に治験してもらって効能を確かめよう! 悪化したとしても大丈夫! リセットすれば無かったことになります あとは単語の意味を埋めていくだけ ね、簡単でしょ
This game was awesome! Would love to see more!
很小品很好玩,一些小隐藏也很有巧思,多周目结局好刷保留笔记很友好,非常喜欢w
有意思的小品游戏.有一些简单的人造语言的推断,但感觉主要难点还是正常的解密,和语言关系不太大。
Ein schönes Spiel für zwischendurch, es ist relativ einfach auf die 100% zu kommen, aber das heißt nicht, dass es keinen Spaß macht. Das Design mit der unbekannten Sprache ist etwas was ich sehr mag, aber ich leider nicht oft sehe. Das Spiel setzt das Prinzip gut um und man kann auf einfache Art viele Wörter herausfinden.
A nice little puzzle game for a nice little price. Take the role of a potion-maker and try to cure the ailments of townsfolk. All the answers are in your manual, but it's written in a language you don't understand. Use context and experimentation to translate and apply that knowledge to make the correct potion combinations. If you like translation-based puzzles, this is a great little entry. It does exactly what it sets out to do.
Jeu court (environ 2H pour le platine) mais très surprenant et intéressant. Si vous aimez vous creusez la tête sur des puzzles/énigmes, je recommande vivement! Il n'en n'as pas l'air mais ce jeu vaut (littéralement) son pesant de cacahuètes!
ひとくちおためしサイズの 7 Days to End with You + Strange Horticulture といったかんじ。言語解読はしっかり意味を取る必要は弱めで、患者の反応でかなり推測できる。 マルチエンドだが条件も提示されるし、長くないので周回も簡単、さくっと遊べる。 ゲーム側から人体実験を推奨されるのでガンガン人体実験して患者を悪化させよう。
Fun game, charming idea but lacking execution content wise. The translation puzzle finishes halfway through the game. After you are done with the manual there are only a couple of mechanics hidden that you will discover shortly. The crafting is fun while it last but it feels cut short with the amount of content. The extra endings are fun since you will need to see and understand every mechanic there is to completely finish the game. It is worth your while if you are intrigued by its premise and don't mind a short game. Also check Chants of Sennaar if you like the translation puzzles and you wish to play something similar with longer gameplay.
初めてこういう言語解読系のゲームをするならうってつけだと思います。時間制限もありませんし、その日の最初に戻ることもできますし。禁忌の薬でさえなければ、それっぽい薬を総当たりしていくこともできますし。しかもお安い。オススメです!
