Its grind-intensive alchemy system has you constantly farming for materials. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing if this is your area of enjoyment. For me, the whole Atelier series is very unbalanced when it comes to this.

About
The three games: Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book DX, Atelier Firis: The Alchemist and the Mysterious Journey DX, and Atelier Lydie & Suelle: The Alchemists and the Mysterious Paintings DX, will come packed with a large amount of the previously released DLC for the titles, as well as all-new content for the DX versions -- including a special digital artbook, photo modes, and the option to speed-up battles. This release also marks the first time that Atelier Sophie and Atelier Firis will be playable on the Nintendo Switch™, enabling players to enjoy these adventures at home or on the go. The Atelier Mysterious Trilogy will be available for purchase as individual titles or together in a specially priced Deluxe Pack containing all three games.

Critic reviews
- The Atelier series fan base has massively increased in size over the last few years, mainly because of the popularity of the two Atelier Ryza games. Given that the older titles are still relatively expensive, it’s nice to see that Koei Tecmo is offering up these DX titles at a reduced price. The trilogy bundle is still going to cost you a pretty penny, but the amount of content more than justifies the price tag, and if you already bought one or two titles, then you’ll be happy to see that each DX title included in the trilogy is available separately as well.
- 7.0If you already own the original games as well as their DLC, then the new content in Atelier Mysterious Trilogy Deluxe Pack is unlikely to be enough to make you want to splash out again, as none of it drastically changes the original experience. However, if this is your first time playing them, then this Atelier trilogy is fairly easy to recommend.
- 8.0Is Atelier Mysterious Trilogy Deluxe Pack right for you? Probably. Each of these three games offers up a content-rich and enjoyable story that should take you a few dozen hours to see through. On the other hand, the slower paced slice-of-life vibe isn’t for everyone and the game elements beyond the robust crafting system can feel a little simplistic sometimes.
- The Atelier Mysterious Trilogy is a piece of Atelier history marked by plenty of ups and downs, but that’s probably what made diving into the Atelier Mysterious Trilogy Deluxe Pack all the sweeter. I genuinely enjoyed all of the content that it had to offer—both new and old—and I’m sure that most other fans will, too. Plus, it’s pretty hard to beat the fact that you’re getting bonus content within each of the games at a reduced price!
- 8.0The Atelier Mysterious Trilogy Deluxe Pack may not offer enough for old fans to double-dip in the adventures, but there’s so much here for new fans to discover. Not just in terms of gameplay, but the evolution of this series and the characters that paved the way towards its current popularity. The extra content and quality-of-life features are just added bonuses to the adventures that await.
