Synthesis involves combining various ingredients through alchemy to create new items. The Synthesis system has been renewed in this game, allowing players to manipulate the mana residing in ingredients on the field and perform simple synthesis. Additionally, a new feature called Building has been added.
The theme of Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land is "Memory", with a story about Yumia and her companions confronting memories and following the path they believe in despite their doubts.
The story is set on a certain continent across a great sea. Once, this contintent was home to a country called the Aladissian Empire, which had achieved such advancement through alchemy that it kept other nations at bay.
However, the empire collapsed due to a sudden and mysterious natural disaster, transforming the land into an inhospitable place. What kind of natural disaster it was, and what exactly caused it, remains a mystery to this day.
