- Nintendo World Report7.5Ultimately, Potionomics is a really rewarding and engaging shop simulator with fun characters and an addictive gameplay loop. While I have some misgivings at how the game runs on Switch, this is a very worthy addition to shop running games, and I can see myself returning to Potionomics, if only to hang out with these characters and brew some more potions.
- Siliconera8.0Potionomics: Masterwork Edition makes me feel like someone coming to the Switch version is immediately getting access to the best version of the game. While there are some minor balancing issues remaining and someone might be as hit-or-miss on characters as I was, the changes and additions based on player feedback result in a markedly improved experience. It really makes it easier to appreciate Sylvia’s adventures in capitalism.
- PlayStation Universe9.0It's incredibly tough to critique Potionomics: Masterwork Edition in any major way; an already fantastic management game has made the jump to console and has done so with an enviable landing that solidly puts its best foot forward as a console management game. Stunning visuals, slick animation and intricately woven gameplay mechanics all come together in a delightful combination that has well and truly sunk its hooks into me. While the game doesn't hold your hand with tutorials, you're encouraged to learn and play around with what you're given, which is a refreshing feeling. Masterwork Edition is absolutely a definitive update that addresses major criticisms while keeping what was so strong.
- 3rd-strike.com8.2As a whole, Potionomics provides a fantastic take on shop simulation, with unlikely elements like deck-building providing a fresh twist. There are a handful of issues we had with the Switch version of the game in particular, like the visuals not reaching their full potential and a less-than-buttery smooth performance. Still, the gameplay is satisfying enough that we’re happy to overlook that in favor of portability. If you don’t care about carrying Sylvia around with you, then your experience on other platforms is likely going to be both prettier and slicker. Regardless of your preference, Potionomics comes highly recommended.
- PSX Brasil8.5Potionomics: Masterwork Edition é a versão definitiva de um ótimo simulador. A adição de dublagem para os excelentes personagens e de diferentes níveis de dificuldade, além das ótimas mecânicas de gestão econômica, de criação de poções e de construção de baralhos, confirmam que este é um jogo que não pode ser deixado de lado pelos fãs do gênero.
