Apothecary is a great little game that's absolutely worth your time. There's a charming original soundtrack, a bunch of endearing characters, and a surprisingly deep story. As far as gameplay, the puzzle-solving aspect can seem daunting at first, but the game does a great job of giving you [i]just[/i] enough information to start figuring out what's going on. You'll probably make a few mistakes as you play through, but don't sweat it - the game isn't expecting you to ace everything on your first try, and there's no way to lose or be set back. You'll just keep humming along, making potions as best you can, before finding out which of the 27 (!!!) endings you earned through your work. My first playthrough brought me to ending #19 - I'm sure there's a happier ending for getting every potion correct, and I'm also curious what happens if I deliberately sabotage or harm everyone who comes by. I'll definitely be playing again!9 found this helpful
This game rules so hard you can draw your own face on some of the characters and you can also draw on the walls like a little kid it's so sick. I drew a guy killing another guy with a rock on my wall its so awesome. If you can't draw yourself though there's plenty of great art within the game, love the mushroom guy. you gotta check this out2 found this helpful
Fun and cute puzzle game! The characters are well written and roger is my best friend. Also, the cat makes sounds! I'm definitely going to go through the game more than once to check out the other endings.2 found this helpful
This is such a delightful game! It seems pretty simple at first, but there's actually a surprising amount of plot and a lot of really funky characters. Definitely take notes on the walls because my memory sucks and I had to try each symbol at least 5 times lol. Also any game with the ability to pet the cat is GOTY in my book!!!1 found this helpful
Puzzle meets whimsical with a great soundtrack. I was immediately addicted to the potion mixing and found the customers to be cute and engaging. Smooth graphics and controls, although the cat could’ve been more helpful LOL. Can’t wait to figure out what happens in the town and unlock the jukebox!1 found this helpful
Apotheacary is a cute and charming game! The writing and clever details throughout (including a handsome cat with attitude) add to the experience and enjoyment. Roger is my favorite character..he's clearly.dedicated and self-sacrificing for his town and community. What a guy! Giving him a different expression and watching him tootle around his garden made me laugh every time. This may have been enough for me, but the puzzley potions made this game an interesting challenge. Loved the option for updating Roger's wardrobe and the character specific music as well! I'll be watching for more games from this developer.1 found this helpful
