Not really interesting enough
It happens with most popular series that put out a gacha entry, but one of the more distinguishing feature of these games, which is the alchemy process, becomes so mundane here. And they went overboard with the 3d animation. I do not expect this game to have a long lifespan
Worth playing for Atelier or RPG fans
As a huge fan of the series, this game is a lot of fun for me. Getting to see all the nostalgic characters from previous games in the series in beautifully animated 3D + a FREE actually decent story, with good characters and lots of emotional moments. In some ways it feels like a huge step-up for the series. Gameplay is a lot more simple but if you don’t mind a little grinding every day, it’s fun and addictive.
Obviously ONLY huge negative is the gacha system. If you don’t win decent characters in the gacha (raffle), the game is a lot harder to progress. EXP and gems are super scarce and the game is still stingy right now (the Japanese version got more generous, but we still have to wait). Worth playing if you don’t mind the gacha element. I wouldn’t recommend spending money until they add more incentive to do so, more options and passes etc.

It’s kinda boring??
I can’t speak for any of the other games that are a part of this series, but I found this game to be relatively uninteresting. The combat system is pretty lackluster, and it feels like it’s just setting up to be a grindfest in late game. The gacha rates were fine.
The story lost my attention pretty early on because of how much it just…dawdled? Like, nothing was happening. It was just characters going from point A to Point B and chatting about very uninteresting things. There was nothing in the story that pulled me into the world or got me emotionally invested in the characters, which I feel like should be one of the first things you do at the start of the story. It feels like it’s just relying on the other titles to make the player care. That being said, I can admire the quality of the 3D animations and how polished the game and ui look overall. But in general the game hasn’t been able to hold my attention for more than 10 minutes at a time.

Awesome Atelier Title for Mobile
Hi developers. I’m having a great time playing this! Ive been hooked on the atelier series for about 2 years now. This is a well polished gatcha title. I hope you will continue to support it far into the future, as will I !!
Standard 5 character versus boss game mechanics
The game has the basic mechanics seen in Raid and many other games. It tries to be more by adding anime inspired characters and a plot…maybe.
Good for the developers trying to provide a well rounded game, but the characters have little depth or development, and the plot is very weak. It takes too long to do things, especially after getting bored of the plot. Maybe the interest is lost in the English translation.
The manual gameplay and relic creation are confusing with guides that are tiny and unclear. No matter what you do, it doesn’t feel you can change the outcomes. Luckily there is automatic gameplay to help but they take too long to work through.
It’s also too hard to navigate around. You need to back track a lot to get information needed for upgrades, return, then go back, etc etc. This where a link would naturally be on the upgrades page.
I have finally gotten to stage where only a well design team will win. It’s been a week of grinding weak enemies and I’m unsure I can be bothered.

Vayne and lodestar cost
They did my boy Vayne dirty. Being a protagonist with a terrible kit. And holy * $40 for a ten pull. I know the game was put a lot of effort on the art but thats just straight robbery and ridiculous. Other than that the game is fun. This game is just for whales. Not even dolphins are welcome.
Edit:
Lost interest on the game. Im only getting memorias and no characters. I hit a wall. Im progressing at a very slow speed. I just enter, make dailies and exit. I got so many ssr memorias and no characters to put them. Im out.

Decent Gacha Game
This game is a great gacha game, though it’s not a game that will replace smash-hit gacha games like Genshin Impact and Fate Grand Order. Play it for what it is - and if you want more of the same gameplay without the gacha system, there is a Atelier title out there to try. Go play Nelke & the Legendary Alchemists - the game is on Steam & Nintendo Switch. The gameplay resource loop Atelier Resna has is basically taken from Nelke, with Nelke using its materials to build up a town whereas Resna uses its materials to make your characters stronger to progress in the storyline.
Just note that this version is 4 months behind the original Japanese version currently- with certain game characters/memoria missing due to the two differing game calendars (JP will have a number of characters & memoria that won’t be available to EN for several months due to being locked behind Holiday events.) That said, because EN is behind, it’s easier to know when a new meta character will be coming.
In terms of your wallet - it is on the more expensive side as a 10-pull will cost ~$20USD. There is also no pity system - only a shard system that requires a lot of pulls before you get enough shards to get Characters via the shard shop.

Driz game looks amazing one thing tho.
Game looks good. Thing is stamina cost the pity or lack of pitty. Rates are invisible. No way to actually earn currency in game. Game is way to character driven so if there’s no pitty and rates are trash chances excuse me no chance in pulling characters. This game just like others is an cash grab for real. Don’t know why companies put pitty behind cash currency.
