The Last Elixir

i was having a lot of fun until i realized that the game actually is just figuring out what all the ren faire language the dev cribbed from his robert aspirin fanfic is actually saying to do instead of like... following recipes. which is what an actual master of alchemy would leave my prentice ass with in reality. skill issue also im dumb, sure, fine. i just wanted to make potions and screw around but instead i got a spider yelling at me that it isnt heavy enugh and needs to be in a vial forsooth and pon window pane fair or whatever. the diary is just a bunch of gandalf's blog so that doesnt help. i feel like im trying to make a cocktail for the most control freaky dnd GM who keeps telling me the celery stick is too short. pass.

such a delightful little game!!! i was honestly bummed that it was over so quickly, the mechanics were simple but engaging and i loved the story being quietly spun in the background ^^

The graphics are cool, but make it way too hard to tell where everything is. While for the most part items can't cover each other, I spent too long not realizing the game had given two salts because one somehow spawned under the scale. The note in the menu about when the game auto saves is also incorrect. I quit thinking I wouldn't lose any progress because I just got a new customer; instead, I was sent back to the start of the night.

Awesome little game. Pretty tough at times

Very fun gameplay loop, a little bit too easy to figure out all potions and the ending may be too simple. Reguardless, it is very much worth the try.

I like the guy who just wants the fizziest potion you can brew. I also enjoyed the odd creatures and the whole building shaking when anyone knocks at the door. Without the guide I would have been stuck after the first couple of customers-the instructions for potion making aren't that clear for the more challenging ones. That being said, that's part of the fun for some people I suppose.
