Can you guess which videogame these potions are from?

For as long as there has been damage in videogames, there have always been the humble healing items. Bandages, mushrooms, herbs. If you can consume it, you can probably regain health with it. I’m a fan of the classics, though, which is why the simple potion is my all-time favourite.

It’s the best one! Stick anything you like in a glass jar and boom. Health regeneration? Red potion. Stamina? Green potion. Mana? Blue. It’s an all-timer communicator of all things digital health and wellbeing. You can stick absolutely anything in one, as well, which can lead to some delightfully niche potion creations. There’s a reason why there are dozens of potion-crafting games and like, zero bandage-crafting games. Blech.
