App Profile: Witch Makes Potions

Rating: 5/5

I have been looking for a game that was fun, distracting, that I could kill a lot of time on, but that wasn’t overly stimulating or flashy. This game is cute, understated, and is so much fun to lose yourself with. Ads are not intrusive whatsoever, they just offer a boost to gold coins if you choose. I immediately bought ad free to support it because it’s not too expensive, and there are also two paid options for a little automation that are not necessary but together they’re only $3 so I got them too to support the devs and make the game a little quicker. It really feels like a game a lot of love went into; 5/5 definitely recommend.

Overall cute but wouldn’t recommend unless you like repetition. Lots and lots of tedious repetition. It’s cute and scratches the game itch, but honestly it’s pretty boring. Upgrades are linear and even though you can see the next 5 things in the Shop Improvement Catalog (my name for it), you can, AT BEST, only buy 2 at any time, and when that happens it’s usually a cash register upgrade, which is an ambiguous max increase that I’ve never seen capped to begin with, or an increase of free 2 minute recharge potion bottles… BY ONE BOTTLE. You can only stockpile 10 items in your storage and, up to the point I’ve played, there isn’t a way to upgrade that further. Cosmetic upgrades are required but give no benefit besides unlocking the next item in the catalog and most likely it’ll just be another cosmetic upgrade, making it incredibly slow and annoying to get to the next actual game upgrade.

Really gets a hold of my need to “simple manage” I appreciate that I don’t have to keep up with TOO much but still have plenty to do. The tutorial is simple and to the point which is a big hit with me. I would like to see information improvements however. We don’t see price per ingredient or per potion. And nothing really has a name. Over all love the game and I hope to see what comes of it! <3
