Copenhagen, Denmark, 26 September 2024 | Indie developer Pebbles Games is excited to announce Potion Shop Simulator, a medieval fantasy shopkeeping simulator coming soon to Steam.
New Beginnings
Brew potions, manage your magical shop, and invite friends to lend a hand at the storefront in Potion Shop Simulator. A whimsical blend of simulation and management, the game invites you for a charming entrepreneurial experience in a medieval fantasy world. The game begins with your graduation from Wizard U. Struggling to find a potion-making apprenticeship in the city, you head to the outskirts of the kingdom, where an abandoned shop lies ripe for opportunity. Thus begins your journey towards revamping the shop, improving its facade, drawing in new customers, and perfecting your potion skills. Whether you play alone or in the game’s 4-person co-op, you’re sure to have a magical time.
Open For Business
Potion Shop Simulator leverages the four classical elements–fire, water, air, and earth–to produce various potions. Gather resources such as flowers and herbs to be combined in different ratios, letting you discover new recipes or stock up on top sellers. Dozens of potion combinations await discovery, and an in-game guide will catalog your combinations for future use. Gain experience and build your reputation with each potion sold. The town’s peculiar clientele are in need of your services, so keep your shop well stocked. As they wander in, you can sell your potions as-is or opt to haggle for additional profit. Use these earnings to upgrade your shop, add new shelving for more potions, and decorate it for a personalized feel.
A Friendly Brew
If you’re looking to adventure with friends, Potion Shop Simulator supports up to four people in co-op. Collect ingredients for your friend as they man the cauldron, or split up across the map to find rare specialties. When you decide to venture into town, check out the other shops where you can purchase furnishings, seedlings for your garden, and advanced brewing equipment like a better cauldron. As you establish yourself in this magical world, side quests become available to boost your reputation and bring in some extra cash. Making special deliveries and completing small tasks–including cleaning your shop and tending to your plants--are necessary services to keep the business flowing. You can immerse yourself further in the world by shopping at an open-air market for new ingredients, buying wares from a traveling salesman, and keeping your shop up to code for the potion inspector. Usher in travelers looking for the strongest potions as you manage all these mechanics for the success of your shop. With enough practice, you’ll rise from apprentice to professional!
