About this app

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is an action role-playing video game developed by Bethesda Game Studios. The game provides multiple skills that the player can develop during gameplay. One of them is Alchemy, a skill that takes time to increase due to the constant search for specific ingredients and their possible effects. This is where Alchenne comes in, an application that serves as a source of information about potions, effects, ingredients and their locations from Skyrim and it's DLCs: Dawnguard, Hearthfire and Dragonborn.


Functionalities:

- Alchemy ingredients.
- Alchemy effects.
- Search bar for effects and ingredients.
- Favourites Tab for your favourites ingredients and effects.
- Potion Maker.

Note: I do not own The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Ratings and reviews

Does what it needs to do. Although offering exactly what other apps offer as far as recipes, this app does let you brew potions yourself which is nice. One drawback though is when you try picking out ingredients, the app opens up the search and your keyboard even though you didn't click search. So you have to close it out over and over again. :/ I mean why should one have to type out each ingredients name when you have all of them listed in front of you? Its just an annoyance.

If it had a "helper" feature that you input what ingredients you have in your inventory and let it generate a list of possible potions arranged by value like the Skyrim Alchemy Helper app, it would be outstanding... But, overall, it's ok... Having locations for each ingredient is very helpful, but this is just an encyclopedia to have on your phone so you don't need to check the Wiki.

So far my experience in using the app has been stellar! I'm familiar enough with the mechanics of alchemy that just remembering particular combinations is my main downfall - for which this is perfect. My only suggestion that I can think of would be possibly integrating Creation Club content as either a toggle or innate addition, for ingredients such as the Glassfish (added in the Fishing Creation as part of the Anniversary Edition). Otherwise, amazing work!
