During launch week, the Standard Edition will be offered at a 10% discount with the Deluxe Edition available at 15% off. The launch week promotion ends October 24. Potionomics will also be part of Steam Next Fest from October 3 to 10. Developer Voracious Games and XSEED Games are set to host a livestream to showcase the game during the event. There’s also a demo that should give players a peek at what the game has to offer.
Potionomics invites everyone to Rafta, an island filled with adventurers and powerful magics. Players take on the role of the penniless novice witch Sylvia. She becomes the new proprietor of a potion shop after the untimely death of her uncle. It’s going to be a difficult task to keep the shop afloat, but the good news is that she has allies to help her learn potion crafting and salesmanship. In addition to helpful allies, her challenging adversaries will allow Sylvia to hone her skills.
Potionomics combines deck building and management simulation with colorful characters, vibrant personalities, and a charming story about personal growth and entrepreneurial spirit.
Players need to learn how to brew the best potions in Rafta and sell them to many adventurers visiting their shop. Selling potions as a novice potion maker can be difficult, with negotiations played out through a card-based system. Players must balance Sylvia’s stress levels and earn the most money possible.
Key features of the game are:
- Wheel and Deal
- Dealmaking can be tense, especially when every coin counts.
- Players can manage Sylvia’s stress with ease if they play their cards right.
- Develop friendships with adventurers and other shopkeepers on Rafta to learn even more advanced negotiation tactics.
- Recipe for Success
- Choose the best ingredients to create even basic potions extraordinary while also perfecting the taste and aroma to make even the store’s pickiest customers satisfied.
- Fantastic Friends and Foes
- The island is home to some of the world’s most potent magic.
- It’s also packed with big RPG personalities, each seeking a leg up in their adventures. Befriend and recruit them to help Sylvia level up her potion game, but don’t expect everyone to be friendly.
- Your Shop, Your Rules
- Make Sylvia’s shop stand apart from the rest with customizable decor.
- Style points aren’t the only perk since being able to decorate her shop just right can improve item prices or reduce potion brewing time, to name a few.
