Atelier Yumia will follow Yumia as she confronts her memories and uses alchemy through her journey. Read on to learn how it plays, what it’s about, and everything else we know so far.

Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land Gameplay

Atelier Yumia is the newest installment in the popular Japanese role-playing game (JRPG) franchise, the Atelier series. Players navigate a vast, open-world environment filled with diverse regions such as Lignumbria, Syvashi, and Auruma. Each area presents unique landscapes, resources, and challenges. Engagements with enemies occur in real-time, incorporating the use of synthesized items to exploit enemy weaknesses and adapt to various combat scenarios.

"Synthesis" is one of the game's main features where players use an alchemical crafting system that enables players to create items by manipulating the "mana" inherent in gathered materials. The effectiveness of crafted items in exploration and combat is influenced by the quality and properties of the materials used.

Players can construct and customize bases within the game world, providing strategic advantages and serving as hubs for resource management and character interactions. Throughout the game, players collect "memory vials," remnants of the past that reveal information about the world and its history. These vials can also be dismantled to obtain rare materials essential for synthesis.

I find joy in the adrenaline rush of horror games, but my thrill-seeking doesn't stop there. Beyond the digital realm, I like to take on the role of designated GM in TTRPGs.
