Cure strange kingdom ills in this strategy game
The Apothecary is a strategy game where players are potion makers in a medieval realm beset by strange illnesses. They gather ingredients and mix potions to cure over 50 maladies, from steam-spouting ears to leg gnomes. By curing citizens and pleasing rulers, players can unlock more new ingredients and potions.
A potion pandemonium awaits
In The Apothecary, players gather over 125 ingredients across biomes to mix into potions for over 50 maladies. By using the five senses to determine proper ingredient combinations through trial and error, players can gain favor with rulers and become respected, unlocking rare ingredients to craft even more potent potions. That said, a potential downside is the steep learning curve in figuring out which ingredients combine to cure the fantastical illnesses. Players may end up accidentally poisoning some citizens before mastering the alchemical craft. However, the open-ended nature of experimentation and gradual mastery is also part of the game’s appeal.
