Potion Panic

Between crow's feet, snake eyes and stardust, a little wizard hastily runs his fingers over the lines of a dusty recipe book. Far from everything humankind could imagine, in the depths of the  blue forest, he has fulfilled his dream of starting his own little business. In his small shop he brews all kinds of potions to help  magical beings from near and far. Demand is high, the mailbox is already bursting with orders. The magician has to be quick if he wants to fullfill all of them.

Everyone has probably experienced the nagging pull of insomnia before. Some perhaps the pain of unrequited love or the stinging realization that the ravages of time will not spare you, even though you still feel quite young.

But not to worry:

From sleep to speed - at the Potion Shop, everyone will find what they need!

Cut up crow's feet, pestle stardust and sink snake eyes into the bubbling cauldron to mix potions and please your customers.

      

If you complete your missions within the given time, your shop gains popularity.  Become popular enough to unlock new ingredients and recipes. 

However being too slow or making a mistake when mixing ingredients will have you lose popularity.
