Atelier Sophie 2: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Dream continues the story of Sophie and Plachta’s many adventures. After leaving Sophie’s hometown of Kirchen Bell, the pair discovers a huge tree identical to one that Plachta had seen in a dream, and as they get closer, a mysterious vortex pulls them inside. Sophie awakens alone in a curious new world called Erde Wiege, and it’s not long before she hears about an alchemist named Plachta that lives on the outskirts of town. Shockingly, when Sophie arrives at the atelier, she meets a young alchemy enthusiast named Plachta, and even though the alchemist shares the same name as her friend, she doesn’t recognize Sophie. What other surprises await Sophie on this journey? As the adventure continues, Sophie meets aspiring alchemist, Ramizel Erlenmeyer, who willingly agrees to help her in her time of need. The narrative elegantly unfolds with a charming new visual style that combines the art of the Mysterious sub-series with the high-quality graphics and animations featured in 2021’s Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends and the Secret Fairy.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Great for both new and old fans
Atelier Sophie has been an amazing so far. It builds off a lot Atelier Ryza 2, even a little bonus DLC from that game in the playstation store. Sophie provides a more rpg turn-base approach as opposed to Ryze 2, but it still provides unique action scenes in battle and the story seems interesting enough. Definitely a good game to pick if you are a fan of the Atelier series and a bit easier game to pick up than some of the Atelier games for new comers.

Great gameplay, okay story
I have played all of the modern Atelier games before this so was always going to buy it. The graphics are the best we have seen in an Atelier game, and I think the alchemy system is one of the best if not these best - sometimes I spend way too long creating items with the puzzles to get them just right. The combat is turn based and I like how each character is unique and poses their owns strengths and weaknesses, can only use certain item types, etc. So the combat portion is strategic and enjoyable but not the best I've seen. This is also a good starting point, playing the first Sophie game beforehand is really not required, as the story and really all other characters are stand-alone. The story and characters are probably below average but it was the gameplay that kept me coming back.

Great Sequel for Atelier Sophie
Enjoy playing the Atelier series in general and came across the first game a few months back. When I heard they'd be a sequel I had to try myself. A great game overall and hoping they make a third like they're doing Atelier Ryza, also a series favorite.
