Not sure. I saw multiple games based on potions mixing idea. Those are fun but short and simple usually. Adding more mechanics on top (like touching sim or resources management) would not turn the board, so it might work or might not - difficult to say in advance. This needs some cherry on top of it to shine, and unfortunately I have no vision for that for now.
If you're really interested in game design, I can suggest you to setup some notebook to write in the ideas. Save the interesting ideas and mechanics you see in other games, movies and TV series, save what you didn't like and have ideas to improve. Get back to your old ideas sometimes and rethink them. And one day , who knows, you might get the whole picture and start a new career like it was for me :-D
