When I first played the game it was boring but then I have been hooked into it ,my advice for anyone if you want to play this game it's better to play it in Handheld console( although it's up to you) I have played this game on PC and I wished to play it on Nintendo when I'm outside( like university-library-while Waiting for my Appointment) the game is enjoyable 👍🏻🌹
Put in your mind that this game is slice of life/ Adventure.
It will start slow and you will get bored but once you go to the next level you will be hooked into it.
This game is the best choice to enter the Atelier Franchise Alongside 2 other games( I will say their names at the end) because it's the simplest Alchemy system it will let you get used to the Alchemy World and how to progress through the game,you can say it's best for the Beginners in the Franchise ,after that if you like it you can choose the other games aka the 2nd and 3rd , I recommend (Atelier Sophie1 and Atelier Escha and Logy) those 3 are the best Beginners game for the Franchise.
Enjoy ~ 🥰
