    The Magical Mixture Mill is an exciting, colorful business management game by developer Glowlight. Griselda’s Magical Mixtures is popular amongst adventurers as a one stop shop for all potion needs. Enhance strength, intelligence, beauty, and more with concoctions from Griselda’s. However, time has taken its toll on the elderly witch, Griselda, and she’s looking for her replacement. That replacement is you, of course! Your adventuring career has been cut short by an intolerance to concoctions, so you’re the perfect candidate to take over. 

    Alongside your goblin assistant, create an automated potion-making mega store. The Magical Mixture Mill gives you a variety of workstations to build. Plus, there are other production line necessities so you can mass-produce the necessary potions to help adventurers. You aren’t always stuck in the shop, though! Explore a beautifully vibrant world full of colorful designs, too. Find and gather the necessary resources for your business. Just be careful, some of the plants fight back! 

    Can you learn the tricks of the trade and successfully take over Griselda’s famous operation?

Follow key moments from the 1930s like Prohibition, the Great Depression, and more. Or write up stories that are a little less important, like the local lost cat. It’s your choice on what stories to cover, but choose wisely, as you aren’t simply writing for yourself! The mafia, the mayor, and other important factions want to use your influence to publish their “truths” for all to see. Bending to their will compromises the integrity of journalism, but it does earn you unique rewards! 

    Manage and optimize your News Tower of employees as your business expands. Hire writers, janitors, photographers, and more to make sure your newspaper becomes a success.

Decorate each floor of the tower to offset the oily, noisy printing machines that will cause your writers to write poorly. Lush plants ought to do the trick. Your newspaper won’t make sales and become successful if your employees aren’t happy!

    Will you become a newspaper mogul?
