In Moonbury, you're the acclaimed chemist called upon to restore health to its inhabitants. Armed with your cauldron, tools, and a loyal dog, you'll diagnose, forage, and craft potions to heal the town's unique ailments in this captivating sim RPG. Explore, learn, and connect in a world that relies on your alchemy skills.

Plot

Moonbury, a town steeped in tradition, has long shunned the modern world's advancements, especially in medicine, favoring age-old healing practices. However, everything changes when the mayor's daughter becomes gravely sick, and the local healer's efforts prove futile.

In response, the Medical Association dispatches its top chemist—that's you—to Moonbury. Your mission? Heal the mayor's daughter and demonstrate to Moonbury's inhabitants the remarkable capabilities of contemporary alchemy. As you navigate this open-ended sim RPG, you aim to earn the townspeople's trust by caring for them whenever sickness strikes.

Gameplay

Taking care of Moonbury's residents: Moonbury is home to around 30 unique souls, each with their own stories and ailments. Imagine, one day, you're treating a farmer with an odd case of bloated liver due to too much gelatin consumption, and the next, you're diagnosing shoulder cramps that turn out to be... burning lungs. Fear not! With a crafted Minty Goblet, they'll be back on their feet in no time.
The art of diagnosis and cure: Diagnosing in Potion Permit is like piecing together a puzzle. With symptoms ranging from low heart rates to unexpected cramps, it's your job to deduce the ailment and concoct the perfect remedy. It's a bit like being a detective, but for illnesses—and with a much more fabulous hat, presumably.

Gathering ingredients - A forager's dream: Your journey takes you beyond the sickbed into the wild, where ingredients await. But gathering isn't just picking berries; it's an adventure. Upgrade your tools, from hammers to sickles, and prepare for the weather's mood swings. Rain or shine, desert heat or blizzard cold, nature is both your pantry and your challenge.
Monster combat - Not just a chemist: Sometimes, the ingredients you need are a tad... unruly. Monsters guarding essential materials mean you'll switch from healer to warrior in a heartbeat. Real-time combat spices things up, allowing you to use your alchemical prowess for buffs or debuffs, turning the tide of battle with a well-timed potion.

Brewing - A cauldron of possibilities: Back at your cauldron is where the magic truly happens. Mixing ingredients you've bravely collected, you'll brew remedies, vitamins, and more. As your skills grow, so does your recipe book, unlocking potent concoctions that challenge your alchemy skills.
Building bonds and upgrading Moonbury: Healing is just the first step. As you mend the bodies and spirits of Moonbury's residents, your bond strengthens. These relationships unlock the heart of the community, leading to personal connections and town upgrades. Your efforts ripple through the town, enhancing public buildings and expanding horizons.
Savoring Moonbury's serenity: Moonbury offers a slice of peace between your duties. Explore, fish for your next meal, or bask in the town's beauty. With your loyal dog companion by your side, uncover hidden treasures and experience the daily lives of the townsfolk without the rush of deadlines.
