Potion Punch is a series of Time Management Game made for mobile devices. It was developed by Monstronauts Inc.The first game was released on 2016. The game begins with Noam, an old potion maker, having a magical accident that turned him into a gnome. Then a hooded stranger (that is, the player character) came in and decided to help Noam run his potion shops. That's about it for the plot.Gameplay-wise, the player has to serve colorful potions to customers that visit the shop. The potions can come in a multitude of colors, but the player only has access to the basic colors. To access the other colors, the player would need to mix the potions together. For example, to make Green Potion you would need to mix Yellow and Blue Potions, while to make Brown you would need to mix all Red, Yellow, and Blue together. While initially there are only three basic potions, the game gets harder as more basic potions are added and the customers start ordering multi-layered potions with additional items on the side.The second game, Potion Punch II was released in 2019. It takes place three years after the first game, continuing the story of Noam and the hooded stranger (now revealed to be a woman named Lyra) traveling the world looking for a way to turn Noam back to human form, all while opening magical shops in the locations they visit. Compared to the first game, the second game has considerably more plot, with Noam, Lyra and other characters having dialogues in-between the stages.Gameplay-wise, the game throws out the increasingly-complex potion making, limiting it to the first shop. Instead, it opts for making other magical trinkets in each new location. For example, the second location has you carving runes and drawing scrolls, while in the third location you sell mushrooms and lanterns. This lets each location have their own gimmicks and mechanics, making them feel new and fresh.

Colorblind Mode
 Potion Punch (Video Game) / int_10eb37ba
comment
In general, to make items easier to distinguish, each item has a different color. Most notable are the potions, as they look exactly the same except for the colors. Fortunately the games also have Colorblind Mode, which adds various shapes and patterns in the potions. In the first game, there are five basic essences to make into potions (red, yellow, blue, white, and black). Two essence colors can be mixed to form up to ten secondary essence (red + yellow = orange, red + white = pink, and so on). Three essences can also be mixed to form tertiary essences (red + yellow + blue = brown, red + yellow + white = peach, etc). Peakwood Potions, the first level in the second game, follows the same mixing principles, but thankfully simplify it to only having red, yellow, and blue basic essences, therefore reducing the secondary essences only to purple, green, and orange, and the tertiary essences only to brown. In the first game, guests can ask for gel add-ons to their potions, indicated by a colored symbol. Health Gel is indicated by a red heart, Stamina Gel by an orange lightning bolt, and Mana Gel by a purple star. In the first game, guests can also ask for their potions to be cooled (indicated by a glowing blue aura) or heated (indicated by a glowing red aura). In Eversand Enhchantments in the second game, you can make scrolls using colorful inks from colorful squids. Similar to the potions, there are three basic colors; red Guts, yellow Zeal, and blue Calm. They can be combined to make purple Moxie, green Peace, orange Will, and brown Grit inks. In Shroudland Shrooms, the three mushrooms you can grow and sell are the Blue Boletes, Green Spikes, and Red caps, each having the respective colors. In Shroudland Shrooms, you can also sell colorful lanterns, made from glowing bugs. This time, it uses the additive colors. There are basic red, green, and blue bugs. Putting red and green bugs in the same jar make a yellow lantern. Red and blue makes magenta, green and blue makes cyan, and putting all three together makes a white lantern. In Tropicvale Treats, there are three popsicle flavors you can sell, indicated by colors. They are taro (purple), caramel (dark yellow), and lime (green). In Crimsonpass Charms, the amulets can be made out of one of three types of wood: cherry (light purple), walnut (brown), and maple (light green).

The Wild West: Downplayed. Drywinds Deli in the second game is a western-style steakhouse located in an American-desert setting. It's filled with sandhorn beasts, which you never see but is implied to be bovine-like, and you make steaks out of their meat. One of the workers you can recruit here is a sheriff.

In the Hood: You're playing as the hooded stranger in the first game, whose hood cover any distinguishing features they have. In the second game, they took it off and reveal themselves to be a woman named Lyra. This is lampshaded in one Flavor Text, where Noam never figured out Lyra is a she until she took the hood off.

Palmtree Panic: Eversand in the second game is a tropical island filled with sandy beaches. However, the gimmick is that the tropic heat can ail your game, like creating heatwaves that make customers less patient or creating Illusions as fake customers.

Besides the Captain Ersatzes of pop-culture characters appearing as special guests, the achievements are also pop-culture references: The achievement for selling 1,000 Stamina Gels is called "Stamina mina, eh eh". The achievement for selling 1,000 Snake Swizzlers is called "Parseltongue". The achievement for playing the game 28 days in a row is called "Monthy Python".

Five-Second Foreshadowing: In relation to the Shadow Fiend's first mention in Shroudland (level 17) to its first appearance (level 31.) Lyra mentions something odd in Eversand level 31, something different from the Illusions you'll be familiar with by that point. Three levels later, you'll encounter a Shapeshifter Nobu.

Elemental Embodiment
 Potion Punch (Video Game) / int_4221e01a
comment
Elemental Embodiment: The second game has the Wisps and the Fiends. The Wisps help you make items you make for the patrons. The Ice Wisp in Tropicvale Treats let you make popsicles and let them stay frozen. However, activating the Wisp also freezes the fondue fountain, so it's vital to turn the wisp on and off at the right time. The Nature Wisp in Crimsonpass Charms activate the magical totems so that you can imbue the fleeces with their power. The Fire Wisp in Drywinds Deli let you cook steaks faster. However, if you're not careful it can also overcook the steak faster. The Fiends, on the other hand, hinder your progress and they are commonly met as "enemies". The Shadow Fiends in Shroudland Shrooms turn off the Light Scroll and prevent it from being turned on, so you can't serve customers until they're driven away. The Ice Fiends in Fortshire Forge make the forge too cold, preventing making new ingots and stopping Smelters from smelting ores. The Fire Fiends in Tropicvale Treats prevent the Ice Wisp from being activated and make popsicles melt faster. The Wind Fiends in Drywinds Deli put out the fire from the charcoal, preventing you from cooking steaks.

Freemium Timer: Downplayed in the second game. Entering a stage by itself costs nothing. However, entering a stage with Workers costs Mana to summon them, and you can't use Workers if you don't have the Mana. Mana regens naturally over time, but can also be refreshed with the premium currency.

Slippy-Slidey Ice World: Dragonfrost Valley in the first game takes place in a snowy mountain. While you don't get to slide on anything, the cold is an issue as it makes the customers less patient. Fortunately, you have a Sun Scroll that can warm the place up for a limited duration. Played With with Tropicvale in the second game. The region is surrounded by icy mountains, but the town itself has warm weather for some unknown reason. The main conflict is that the icy mountains are slowly encroaching the town, and Noam has to sacrifice a chance of turning back into a human to save Tropicvale.

Monster Town: The aptly named Monstro City in the first game. The level's main gimmick is the goblin customer, who speak in a gibberish language so you need to use the Goblin Scroll first to understand their orders. In addition, there are also Red Goblins who will try to steal unattended coins and Evil Eyes that bother your customers.

Land, Sea, Sky: In Crimsonpass Charms in the second game, one of the item types you make is fleeces imbued with the power of three magical totems. The Deer Totem represents Land, the Turtle Totem represents Water, and the Hawk Totem represents Air.

Color-Coded Elements: In Eversand you can sell runestones. Fire stones are red, Ice stones are blue, and Earth stones are green. In Crimsonpass Charms, the magical totems each signify an element and indicated by colors. The Deer Totem is red and represents land, the Turtle Totem is blue and represents water, and the Hawk Totem is green and represents air.

First Town: Starluck Village in the first game is your first potion shop. There are only a few types of items to sell, and the customers rarely order anything complicated. Subverted with Peakwood Potions in the second game. Despite looking like a standard shop in a woodland setting, its flavor text mention that even advanced adventurers have trouble crossing through the forest. Justified, since Lyra and Noam are already experienced from the travels they did in the first game. Gameplay-wise, its potion mixing mechanic is actually one of the most complicated gimmicks among all the stores despite being the first location.

Randomly Generated Levels
 Potion Punch (Video Game) / int_a456a8a9
comment
Randomly Generated Levels: In the first game, each Day is randomly generated, except for the boss customer every 10 Days, and even then their orders are randomized. This can lead to easy days where the customers order nothing but the simple-to-make snacks, or to hard days where multiple customers order three-layered potions made out of tertiary essences at once. Averted in the second game, where each normal or challenge stage has a fixed sequence of orders from the customers, although it still randomizes which customer will come to the shop. However, once you've finished all normal levels for a location, you unlock Classic Mode and Endless Mode, which are randomly generated.

Shifting Sand Land: Downplayed with Drywinds. Although it's located in a desert, it's an American-style desert rather than the standard Arabian one, and so it lacks many elements usually associated with deserts.

Rule of Three
 Potion Punch (Video Game) / int_a6cda066
comment
Rule of Three: In the second game, typically each type of item you sell have three variants, usually differentiated by their colors. In Peakwood Potions, there are three basic potions: red, yellow, and green, with the more advanced potions being combinations of the three. In Eversand Enchantments, there are three colored squids, which produce colored inks used to make sigil scrolls. There are also three types of stones used to make runes, and there are three types of runes that can be carved into each stone. In Shroudland Shrooms, there are three types of mushrooms you can sell, colored blue, red, and green. There are also three types of colored bugs you can catch to make lanterns. In Fortshire Forge, there are three types of metals to forge the swords from: bronze, iron, and steel. There are also three gemstones you can sell: emeralds, sapphires, and rubies. In Tropicvale Treats, there are three flavors of popsicles: taro, caramel, and lime. There are also three ingredients for the fondue: marshmallows, berries, and mini-donuts. In Crimsonpass Charms, there are three types of wood to carve the amulets from: cherry, walnut, and maple. You can also sell fleeces imbued with the powers of three totems: Deer Totem, Turtle Totem, and Hawk Totem.

Blackout Basement: Shroudland in the second game is a dark marsh where the sunlight can't get through and you need the Light Scroll to light the place up. This forms the gimmick of this level, as you can't serve customers in the dark, but you need the darkness to grow mushrooms and catch the glowing bugs for your lanterns. Properly turning the Light Scroll on and off is crucial in the level. To complicate things further, sometimes Shadow Fiends will appear and prevent you from turning the lights on.

Shout-Out: Besides the Captain Ersatzes of pop-culture characters appearing as special guests, the achievements are also pop-culture references: The achievement for selling 1,000 Stamina Gels is called "Stamina mina, eh eh". The achievement for selling 1,000 Snake Swizzlers is called "Parseltongue". The achievement for playing the game 28 days in a row is called "Monthy Python". When Nome teaches you how to make a Cyan Potion, he says, "blue and white, and everything nice! These are the ingredients to make the perfect potion!"

ShapeshiftingTrickster: In Eversand, you meet the shapeshifters, a race of magical creatures that can change shapes to play tricks on others. However, you can distinguish them from the lack of eyebrows and their tail. Gameplay-wise, they'll try to order items like other customers, but if you serve them they'll just run off with the item without paying while sneering at you. Story-wise, you're trying to track them down in case they know how to revert Noam back into a human. Convincing them to tell you that is the main plot point of the Shroudland Shrooms section of the game.

Mundane Utility
 Potion Punch (Video Game) / int_eff83d77
comment
Mundane Utility: Might as well be the name of the second game: You're using tamed magical beasts in order to run a shop. Among other things, you use dragons to grill fish, gargoyles to chop mushrooms, ice spirits to make popsicles, and other things. You can summon the spirits of heroes to aid in shopkeeping. For example, you can summon the spirit of Queen Kayle Lizzie, a famous dragon tamer, to control the dragons so they don't burn the fish they're grilling. One of the most mundane utilities is probably Farah, a powerful mage whose duty is placing fondue sticks on the table. Even the game acknowledges this, as Kara calls them "Heroes", but Lyra and Noam as well the game itself call the spirits "Workers". The workers themselves for the most part find their jobs a refreshing break from the usual epic quests.
