What players say

Players consistently report that the alchemy system is interesting in theory but buried under tedious menus and inventory management. The game is often buggy, with some reviewers losing all progress to a save-wiping glitch. Controls are clunky, especially with mouse and keyboard, and the tutorial does a poor job explaining mechanics. A few players still found the core loop enjoyable.
