Official Steam store asset telemetry for A Place for Every Potion.

A Place for Every Potion is a cozy sorting puzzle game where players decant scrambled liquids and arrange 4,160 bottles across 52 shelves in a gothic stone laboratory.

Decanting and Shelving Mechanics

  • Gameplay revolves around two complementary tasks consisting of decanting scrambled liquids and shelving completed bottles.
  • Players pour mixed fluids between glassware until each container holds a single pure color.
  • Finished bottles are carried across the laboratory to matching cabinets determined by color and label sigils.
  • Limited carry capacity requires careful choices between holding empty vessels and transporting finished mixtures.

Laboratory Exploration and Visual Progress

  • The entire campaign takes place inside a two-floor gothic stone rotunda illuminated by tall arched windows.
  • A finite total of 4,160 potions sits in the central pile across 52 sections and 364 shelf rows.
  • No items respawn or quietly refill, ensuring the floor clears progressively as shelves illuminate.
  • Optional on-screen counters track completed bottles and filled rows down to the final container.

Stress-Free Atmosphere and Pacing

  • The experience excludes countdown timers, failure states, and score penalties.
  • Incorrect shelf placements carry no penalties, allowing players to organize at their own preferred pace.
  • Automatic saves record every liquid pour and bottle placement, enabling seamless departure and return.
  • Quiet background music and ambient glass audio complement the calm apothecary setting.

Skill Progression and Tool Enhancements

  • Sorting earns experience points that unlock skill points across a 24-node progression board.
  • Available upgrades expand reach, broaden carry limits, and provide deeper working buffers.
  • Skill board perks provide improved workspace utility without automating the physical sorting process.
  • The standalone release excludes microtransactions, energy timers, or storefront purchases.
