Cauldron Chaos

Cauldron Chaos is a top-down, 2.5D potion-making game. Your master leaves you in charge of his apothecary for two weeks, where you brew, bottle and sell potions to magical customers before each day ends.

Make and deliver potions

Recipes arrive in a fixed-order queue. You pick up ingredients, add them to the cauldron, stir when required and bottle each finished brew. Customers can take a potion whenever it is ready for them, so you do not have to serve them in line order, and they have no individual timers.

The day has an overall time limit. You try to complete as many correct potions as possible before closing, balancing brewing and customer service against the clock.

Events and characters

Every other in-game day brings a magical disruption, such as reversed controls or ingredient mix-ups. The 14 days grow increasingly wild as you try to keep the shop running until your master returns. The apothecary has a whimsical style, with colorful potions, silly mishaps and charming characters.
