Potion Panic
Brew potions, handle orders and manage your own potion shop! Can you keep track of everything as the shop evolves as you play?
The Grand Wizard is going on a well deserved vacation, and has put you in charge of running his potion shop. To make sure you do your job, he has cast a hex on you, so you can't stop moving!
Adventurers need potions for their quests, so now you must brew their potions and manage the shop. The potion recipes are very delicate so be careful! If you miss a step, you will have to wait for the brew to evaporate before you can try again.
The shop is full of delicate magical artefacts and ancient tomes.
Try not to break anything!

Great game! I loved all the detail of the room and that you can interact with everything
This game is a pure classic! Truly depicting the difficulties of being the CEO and sole brewer at a Potion brewing Enterprise.
Love it!
Really fun game! The assets and art are all super cute. I made it to level 10 but I didn't unlock all the upgrades. Excited to see where you take this and what you work on next!
Thanks for the nice comment! We are also super proud of how the assets turned out. Well done reaching day 10! What did you think about the progression curve of the game, while you played?
Hey there, this is a really fun game, congrats!
I have some feedback if you're still working on it:
Let me know if you're still working on this :D
Those are some great suggestions, thanks a ton! We are definitely talking about maybe building upon this core concept and expanding the game in the future. Like you suggest we have talked a lot about adding a shelf that the player could buy in order to store potions, but in the end we was limited by time. But it's great to hear that you like the game and can see potential in the concept.
Thanks for playing and commenting! :-)
Little bit of a slow start, but a lot of fun when it picks up!
Thanks a ton for playing our game and taking time to write such a nice comment! We have talked a lot about the progression curve of the game and how to tweak it. We will be releasing a balance patch that hopefully should improve the progression in the beginning.
Thanks again, and have a great day! :-)
