The Last Alchemist

This game is a very fun blend of gathering and crafting. It allows you freedom to roam and experiment on your own, but guides you with quests that make a complex crafting system easy to learn. I also really appreciate having a protagonist that has to face his mortality because of his disease; his sense of urgency for a cure, how he casually comments about how he has to think about terrain differently, and misses having the stamina he used to before the illness all make me feel seen as somebody going through something similar. The few games that have disabled characters don't represent them as realistically as this, and usually turn the disability into a crazy advantage or completely ignore it in the story except in art design. This game would be great for kids, but I'm an adult and absolutely love this game, story, and cute mushroom friends!

This is a great little game if you enjoy crafting. The crafting system is complex enough to be interesting but not overly so. The story is entertaining but not super deep.

Fun and charming game.

I enjoyed this game. I can see how it's not for everyone and after beating it I have my notes. But this game did scratch a certain itch for me. If you have a slight interest in chemistry but just want a Minecraft/Lego fantasy version of it, then this is the game for you. It feels like a passion project by someone who doesnt normally make games. Or someone who had a good idea but not a big team to pull it all off. With all of that said, I would love to see more like this. I support this idea and want some sort of game that continues this alchemical idea. The story is kinda weak, and the end is very lack luster, but the journey is fun. Trying to figure out the correct combination of elements is fun. you have to progress kinda far to get the full fun of ripping apart and combing things, but once youre there its very rewarding to finally get the right mixture. Last note, take the time to build the stuff in between missions. its kinda annoying, but youll thank yourself later. i beat the game with almost nothing built, i thought i was only halve way done...

Zu Beginn macht es Spaß. Es ist zwar repetitiv, doch man entdeckt immer neue Gebiete und neue Rezepte. Allerdings habe ich ab dem Punkt abgebrochen, an dem mir plötzlich eine weit fortgeschrittene Ressource ausging. Für Gläser braucht man Quarz, wofür man wiederum 2 Bausteine braucht. Die gewinnt man wiederum durch Ressourcen, für die man bestimmte Bausteine zum Abbau synthetisieren muss. Wenn man weit fortgeschritten ist, machen solche repetitiven Ketten keinen Spaß mehr. Leider.

Good game if somewhat lacking in content. Gives enough of different things to do. I liked the story though it could've been made way bigger without much of an effort from the dev's side. Also many things are not needed to complete the game which is a little bit disappointing. Completed the game and built every possibe item and then deinstalled. Good game for 1 time.

Cozy fun and enjoyable
