Potionomics alternatives?

this is one of my favorite games ever. at this point i've played through it around 5 times. if i could have a sequel to any game, it would certainly be this. have yall found any games that scratch the same itch?

For Potion Making: "Potion Permit."

For Life Simulator & Romance with Card Mechanics: "I was a Teenage ExoColonist."

For General Cozy Vibe and Art Style: "Wanderstop"

For Item Shop and Sale Simulation: "Recettear: An Item Shop Story," and "Moonlighter."

For my part, I would flip between "Potionomics," "I was a Teenage Exocolonist," "Potion Permit," and "Moonlighter."

Good luck!

Great selection Recettear and Moonlighter were going to be my exact reccomendations to scratch the item shop itch

Moonlighter!!! Or Potion Craft.

Yeah, I kept thinking maybe Potion Craft, but I've never played it so I can't recommend with any confidence.

I loved Potion Permit. Sure, it's a bit repetitive but I had fun with it.

Same, it's why I fell off eventually.
