Potionomics, the narrative-driven deck-building shop sim from Voracious Games and XSEED Games, recently took over the hearts and minds of Steam players. The game received very positive reviews, with users complimenting its art style, charming characters and more.
In Potionomics, you play as a penniless young witch named Sylvia. After the untimely death of her uncle, she inherited his store – as well as a boat load of debt. It’s all up to her to carry on her uncle’s legacy and keep his potion shop afloat. Thankfully, she won’t have to go it alone. With help from some new friends, Sylvia must hone her negotiation skills, outsell her craftiest competitors, and make her shop THE number-one potion destination in Rafta.
