About

Before the discovery of machines at the heritage site, people used to depend on the alchemist shop to provide services for them. However, now that everything is automated, the shop no longer gets customers. To make matters worse, the current shopkeeper is so lazy that he cannot be bothered to put up a fight to make his shop stay afloat. At last, the shop lost all the customers and faces being closed down. To protect her home, Rorona, one of the last apprentices of the shop devise business plans to revive the shop. Complete quests set by the royalty, authorities, and friends and prove that your services will be missed if you are forced to close down. Travel the land, meet all the interesting people and find your own happily ever after.

Atelier Rorona: The Alchemist of Arland DX is a charming and enjoyable RPG title but the continuous pressure of time management will be off putting for many.

Atelier Rorona DX is currently holding the title for ‘nicest game I don’t actually want to play’ this year. Take that as you will. While I’m happy to have spent time with it and get a good look at what the Atelier series is all about, I don’t think I’ll be coming back for more from the myriad other titles.

If you're a JRPG fan who has never played Atelier Rorona or only played the original version then The Alchemist of Arland DX is definitely worth a purchase, especially if you enjoy lighthearted whimsical tales set in delightful worlds.

Atelier Rorona é confortável, um RPG por turnos que aposta mais nas interações das personagens e no seu dia-a-dia do que em contar uma história de proporções épicas. As peripécias de Rorona e dos seus amigos marcam o início de uma trilogia com muito encanto e potencial para melhorias com cada nova iteração. Para quem gosta de algo mais descontraído, a série Atelier é um bom companheiro para aquelas tardes de chuva, acomodados numa manta e perto de uma lareira.
