What to study

The alchemy catalogue is shelved like books and browsed like a carousel: four oversized spines stand over the library, each colour-coded with a craft icon, teapot, berries, vessel, candles, and the selected spine is named in the footer (Herbal Tea) while side arrows page the shelf. It is a catalogue screen that stays diegetic: the library's bookcases, banners and round table remain visible behind the spines, so choosing a recipe never leaves the room it belongs to. Frame at about 0:37 in the Release Date Trailer (YouTube). Pre-release footage; the game launches Jan 28, 2027.
