About Dream Merchant

The lonely herbalist and potion merchant

Dream Merchant is an atmospheric game about alchemy, trade, and human stories. You play as a lonely herbalist and potion merchant living on the edge of the world—close to people, but never quite among them.

You don't cook from ready-made recipes.

You experiment. You combine. You take risks.

Every herb, essence, or artifact can change the outcome—and with it, the fate of the person you're helping.

Mechanics

Game System

🧪

Alchemy Through Experimentation

Alchemy based on experimentation, not fixed recipes. The game never tells you what's "right." You learn by observing the consequences.

🔮

Crafting Amulets & Artifacts

Create amulets and artifacts with long-term effects. Rare combinations lead to unique results.

🌿

Growing & Gathering

Cultivate and collect ingredients in a changing environment. Every resource matters.

🤝

Trade & Exchange

Trade and barter with inhabitants and travelers. Some potions heal. Others change people more than expected.

Narrative

A Story Full of Emotions

Inhabitants don't come with quests. They come with problems, fear, and hope.

Decisions aren't black and white, and their impact often manifests only with the passage of time. The world remembers what you've brewed.

"Dream Merchant is a game about quiet moments, hesitation, and consequences. About how even good intentions can have a price."
