I really like this game! I played both the lying and stealing way and the being nice to animals and with nature way; the messaging in the way you can't make the potion if you lie to the gardener is really strong! I would like it personally if there was a consequence for leaving the animal on the path to strengthen this theme more I love all the little illustrations you have for each of the ingredients, and if you go back to this game for more, I'd love to be able to travel more widely for all of them!
One quick mechanic thing: If I click the recipe tab on the, "Thanks for your purchase!" screen, and then return to that screen, it puts me at -10 gold. I think you can fix this with an (unless:) macro!
