A good concept and a fun game play mechanic! I think with more instructions (possibly an explainer video), this would be fab! Once I understood how to craft the potions I did find it very hard to make all of them - I think there needs to be a way to discard cards as I was often in a position where I could never make certain potions because I didn't have the correct colour cards.

a very fun puzzler. trying to get the number on the plants to sync up and trying to free up space on the top row was a very fun challenge and I had to use a lot of brain. would've wished it was clearer that the number showed meant the number only. I thought it meant the number or the color based on the description, so I was confused why it didn't accept my 3 and green when the green potion asks for 3 and 3. a simple tutorial or a more specific description would've been useful to not confuse the players on how to play. nevertheless the game is still pretty fun and I had a good time playing

Rl great game. It took me a while to underestand, but at least i needed to use my brain xD

Hard at start, but you can get use to it very quickly.   i would definitely recommend

Submitted

Nice concept, but there should be a short tutorial in the game description (Gemma_Pricot's comment helped me understand how it works)

I think the game has incredible potential! I'm a huge fan of the mechanic but it needs some tweaks as there are currently impossible routes. However, with some more time into this, this would be an incredible game!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words.

It was quite hard to understand how to play, but once we got the controls, it was a really fun and relaxing puzzle game โœจ๐Ÿ’– !

I love this game a lot, well done ๐ŸŒˆ

(PS: for those wondering how to play, make the pairs by clicking on the two cards that you want to match together, depending on what is asked by the game on the last row)

Great game! I love it very much
It take some time to figure out how it works but once you understand it's a really funny puzzle game.
Sometimes it's impossible to finished a level.
Great job!

Developer

Glad you like it. The game needs mechanics to counter  bad rng.

Great fun, really made the gears turn in me noggin. the simplistic beauty of the cards is very nice. I wish there was something saying the 9 age cap failure mechanic in the game itself, but yeah, thats great. you did a good job there.

Developer

Thank you. You are right there should be an animation for cards go over 9.

Submitted

This was really fun! I think a short tutorial could be helpful, as I didn't initially understand what the goal was, but once I got it I really enjoyed it. I'd love to see this idea expanded on in the future.

Developer

Thank you. I think you are right the goal isnt clear enough.

Submitted

The presentation is really well done! Great work!

Developer

Thank you!

I really like the sketchy art style. Gameplay is very nice but it took me some time to understand what I should do.

Developer

Thank you. I'll probably change the UI to make a bit more intuitive
