Ratings and reviews

The controls are difficult at best. But it seems to have everything that I love and a game crafting making stuff and selling stuff. It has huge potential, but I am trying to complete the quests. It's very difficult unless you literally talk to every. NPC, maybe if there was an indicator on the npc for the quest.

While the game may be alright, the controls are painful at best and impossible at worst. I'd rather buy one of the mainstream potion shop games over any of the IAPs for this one simply because the controls and UI. I get the game is mimicking older games, but with so much of the screen being black and the rest being covered in a joystick (not to mention the movement feels like you're on ice) this just isn't an enjoyable experience.

It's fun and I really enjoy the game, but...The potion system is a pain. Some recipes have four colors you have to match and some have three, and it's also near impossible to get a 100% potion when you have four colors for two reasons: one being the fact that there seems to be a lot more skeletons thrown into the mix (they decrease your time) and two is it seems a lot harder to get matches together to fill up your bar. Leveling potions also takes a long time.
