About Cork & Cauldron — Gameplay Overview & Features

Cork & Cauldron is a cozy potion brewing puzzle. Every level is an order: the card shows the potion a customer wants and the recipe for it. Pour glowing liquids between flasks to gather each ingredient into a flask of its own. A full flask gets corked: send it to the cauldron, brew the potion by the recipe and pour it back onto the board to fill the order.

The recipes keep growing as you play: two-step brews where one potion becomes the ingredient for the next, rainbow essence that stands in for any ingredient, and double orders where you decide what to brew first. The shelves fight back too: murky layers that hide their color, flasks of different sizes, frozen flasks and wax seals.

Every order you fill earns stars. Spend them to restore an old potion shop room by room, from the dusty trading hall to the stargazer's attic and the tower at the top. Each order also adds a new potion to your Potion Book, with its own name and a silly one-line story. Fill an order without boosters and you get its golden edition.

Features:

- 200 levels, a new brewing mechanic every few chapters

- 8 rooms to restore and 120 potions to collect

- Undo, a hint from the shop's old owl, or an extra flask when you're stuck

- Daily gifts and a win streak that pays extra coins

- Color symbols mode for color-blind players

- Available in 11 languages
