This has such a cozy vibe, it is very satisfying to go through all the tabs to try to figure out what the recipe is. The note tab is a helpful quality of life feature! It's a great take on the theme.

very cool concept and lovely visuals, felt very cozy doing some research <3 took a few tries to fully understand what they wanted, but i felt pretty good figuring it out! i think it would've been awesome to have actual layers of windows to rearrange to perhaps make it easier to cross-reference, but otherwise, very good game!

I had a lot of fun, I love puzzle and clue games, this was cozy and quick, very enjoyable. Loved the music choice, art and color palette! Only thing i would add is the ability to click on the ingredients from the F (search engine) when i hover over them to get to the W (encyclopedia) directly. That's all, i really liked it!

This game was so fun, would love another level (recipe to deduce). It was fun to find new little bits of information and co-relate that to the plants. Eg; grandma never used animal ingredients... so harpy talon and viper tongue was out. It was so fullfilling to rule the plants out. Though i struggled a little bit on the last ingredient. But a single sentence from grandmas email helped me out. 
Please work on this game after the Jam as well, I think you have something really special here!

Very cute! Fun visuals and story writing!

I was a bit perplexed what I was actually supposed to do, though. I guess just read all the emails and articles until the clues sort of pop up in them? I'm not much of an avid reader, so that was a bit rough for my ADHD. Still, an interesting idea!

First of all, I love a witch who is plant-based. Cute idea. I did it and got the right potion on the first time, but it was not that easy, which is amazing in a game from a jam. Honestly, I would dream of a long version of this game, it is one of my top pick of this game jam. Absolutely loved everything about it. I'll keep an eye open for your next games !

I do love this concept!

Yesss I love process of elimination puzzles like this! Such a fun atmosphere, really made me feel like a super sleuth.

Really nice vibes here! It took me a moment to readjust to normal computer use after I left the game XD
