Why play it

Potions: A Curious Tale is an adventure-crafting game where your wits are your greatest weapons and combat is not always the answer. Encounter fairy tale characters and stories from around the world as you play as Luna, a young witch who overcomes obstacles with the potions she brews.

Story and worldbuilding

Growing up is hard, and it’s even harder when you’re a witch! As Luna, you’ll solve devious puzzles and battle monsters with your arsenal of mystical potions. With a little help from your grandmother (a powerful witch in her own right) and Helios, your sharp-tongued cat familiar, you’ll explore enchanted lands inspired by your favorite fairy tales – often with an unexpected twist! As powerful as your potions are, you’ll find yourself up against monsters that can shrug off your most powerful attacks. You’ll have to think on your feet and act quickly to sidestep danger. Manage your resources carefully, or you may find yourself with an empty satchel when you need your elixirs most.

Potions: A Curious Tale is a classic case of “what you see is what you get,” and while it may be met favorably by players captivated by its concoction of comfort, others are likely to feel side effects of disappointment and boredom after taking enough swigs.

Potions: A Curious Tale is a refreshing departure from traditional combat-heavy adventures. By making wit and alchemy your primary tools, it delivers a deeply satisfying puzzle-solving experience rooted in exploration and clever crafting. While some inventory clutter and pacing issues occasionally slow the magic, Luna's journey is a vibrant, heartwarming, and intellectually rewarding tale that proves the mind is indeed mightier than the sword.

Stiff movements and awkward combat drag down what could have been a more magical adventure
