About the game

Your shop. Your craft. Your little corner of Rookbridge.

Inherit a remedy shop on Cinder Lane in a town of marsh fog, market fairs, and peculiar complaints. Make remedies by hand, stock your shelves, set prices, and advise the customers who step through your door. Close the books each evening and decide where tomorrow’s earnings should go.

01

Make every batch by hand

Learn 24 recipes. Grind herbs in the mortar, stir at the kettle, then bottle, cork, and seal each remedy. Good timing and clean equipment improve batch quality.

02

Keep the shop running

Unpack deliveries, fill your displays, and set your own prices. Count change yourself or use automatic counting, then balance supplies, wages, and upkeep in the evening ledger.

03

Listen before you recommend

Get to know Rookbridge’s regulars at the consultation desk. Read the clues, ask a question, and consult your journal before choosing a remedy. Take on commissions with deadlines and quality requirements.

04

Build an apothecary of your own

Arrange your shelves and decorations, upgrade your tools, and expand with a storeroom, laboratory, and garden courtyard. Hire a porter, clerk, and brewer as you work toward the Town Apothecary Charter. Choose Standard or Relaxed rules and adjust assistance to suit your play.
