Potion Permit is a 2022 video game developed by MassHive Media and published by PQube.

Gameplay

Gameplay consists primarily of action role-playing elements, with minigames used to represent certain complex actions, such as creating a potion.[1] Additional gameplay elements come from the foraging system, as well as socialization with non-player characters (NPCs).[2]

Development

Potion Permit was developed in Bandung, Indonesia by the studio MassHive Media, having been inspired by Stardew Valley, Moonlighter, and other games.[3] The game was announced in September 2020.[4]

The game was released for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on September 22, 2022, and on Amazon Luna on September 23, 2022.[2][5][6]

The mobile version was released on February 6, 2024.

Reception

Potion Permit received "mixed or average" reviews, according to review aggregator Metacritic.[7][9][8]

GameSpot praised the aesthetics and narrative of the game, though it also noted issues with the depiction of some character traits.[12] Nintendo Life similarly praised the aesthetics of the game in their review, additionally making a positive note of the mini-games, while critiquing the low difficulty of the game.[10]

GameSpot, Destructoid and Push Square both noted the presence of a large number of bugs as a detracting point.[2][11][12] TouchArcade noted that the performance issues on Switch hardware could lead to issues in timing critical minigames.[15]

At the 2025 Pégases Awards, Potion Permit was nominated for Best Foreign Mobile Game.[16]
