Who it's for

Euro gamers who enjoy simultaneous planning puzzles and skill-building engines with a fresh medieval-pharmacy theme.

Not for you if…

You dislike simultaneous-reveal mechanics or want more direct, reactive turn-taking rather than secret planning.

🦊

Vibe's take

Quietly tense β€” the simultaneous secret planning creates a slow-burn guessing game that only pays off when the schedules are revealed.

About this game

Tinctura puts you behind the counter of a pharmacy, curing patients with ointments, tinctures, and tablets you craft from gathered ingredients. You plan your day secretly in hour-long shifts, splitting time between the pharmacy, town, and woods, while training apprentices to expand what your shop can handle. It's a gamers' game about skill-building and simultaneous secret planning.
