Ingredient geometry
Ingredients have shape, color or paths as well as quantity; spatial processing changes the result.
The player's decision
Use a powerful large ingredient or small pieces that fit key regions?
Original scenario
Original: an L-shaped leaf on a 4×4 spice tray can block later pieces or rotate to cover two aroma cells.
Start with this prototype
Build a 4×4 synthesis tray, three ingredient shapes and two effect cells. Rotate, undo and preview the recipe; reach a target aroma without random ingredient stats.
Change one variable
Move one bonus cell to test whether geometry changes solutions.
What to observe in a playtest
Rotate without duplicating ingredients and match previews to resolution.

Common pitfall
If every layout yields the same result, shapes add only dragging effort.
Observations and sources
Cases refer to public documentation. Developers and community wikis are credited separately; document review is not a claim of hands-on testing.
- Atelier Sophie
Official material connects synthesis quality to filled panels and effects to matching colors.
- Potion Craft: Alchemist Simulator
The Alchemy Map turns recipes into routes toward effects alongside grinding and mixing.
