Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book

The biggest change in comparison to the earlier part of the series is the removal of the time limits (except for a few side quests). To gain recipes and progress in the plot, Sophie simply has to follow her ideas (basically hints for what to do next), e.g. visiting a location, defeating a monster or talking to someone. Time still plays an important part because the night/day cycle, day of the week and weather influences the behaviour of the town people and which ingredients/enemies can be found in the game world.
