Alchemy Garden for PlayStation 4

Run your own potion shop in this sim game

Alchemy Garden is a simulation game developed by MadSushi Games where players run an alchemy shop. As an alchemist, they will craft potions from a garden and explore new recipes to satisfy customers. The game also employs colorful graphics and casual gameplay focused on crafting, gardening, and shop management.

In particular, the game lets players customize an alchemist character and garden, explore the world to find plants and minerals, take on villager commissions, and expand their shop over time. For those looking to unwind with a charming fantasy game focused on creation and commerce, Alchemy Garden is poised to enchant.

Brew up a backyard business 

In Alchemy Garden players can customize an alchemist character and craft potions by harvesting plants and minerals to sell in their own shop. The game allows players to care for a garden to grow ingredients, explore the world to find new recipes and decorate their shop. The pricing and success of the potion shop depend on factors such as the shop's appearance, product variety, and customer satisfaction. 

The variety of potions and the ability to set prices based on shop upgrades and customer favors provide an engaging business simulation experience for players. Players are also able to expand their garden space to create more elaborate environments. With beautiful gardens and environments to decorate as well, this charming title offers an immersive simulation game for players interested in crafting and entrepreneurship.

That said, the game potentially has the downside of repetitiveness. After all, a major gameplay loop involves exploring the world to find new ingredients, bringing them back to the garden and shop to craft into potions, and then selling those potions to customers. While discovering new recipes and expanding the garden can keep things interesting for a while, the core gameplay may start to feel repetitive and grindy over time.

Let imagination take flight

The ability to customize an alchemist character, decorate a garden and shop, discover new recipes, and manage a potion business offers a variety that is poised to keep players enchanted in this whimsical world. For players seeking an outlet for their imagination, Alchemy Garden could prove to be an enjoyable garden and potion-making adventure, allowing one to craft and sell various potions to keep their shop thriving.
