Développé par Gust et publié conjointement par Gust, Koei Tecmo America Corporation et Koei Tecmo Europe, ce titre se classe dans les genres aventure et jeu de rôle.

Le jeu affiche une note agrégée de 69,11. Concernant son accueil, la presse a salué la maturité que le développeur Gust apporte à la franchise, comme l'a indiqué Digitally Downloaded. GameCritics a de son côté jugé que les défauts restaient suffisamment mineurs pour offrir une expérience de JRPG comparable à un opus précédent. Sur Metacritic, des joueurs ont exprimé des regrets quant à ce qu'ils décrivent comme un grinding important nécessaire pour progresser et une limite de temps pour finir le jeu, tout en relevant la qualité de la musique et du système de combat. Un autre joueur a perçu ce volet comme une avancée majeure de la série, estimant que l'histoire en était la plus intéressante parmi ceux qu'il avait joués.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« I appreciate the maturity that GUST is bringing to the Atelier franchise. In fact, I really, really appreciate the maturity that the developer is injecting into its flagship series, and frankly, I can't think of a better quality traditional JRPG out there than this one. »
« It's not perfect, but the flaws are so minor that I can't help but grade this the same as I did Meruru—a JRPG experience that anyone with even the most passing interest in the genre owes it to themselves to play. »
« The perfect starting point for those not already into the series; it balances out the problems Atelier Ayesha had, while delivering a package of risk and reward that can keep RPG fans wanting to keep replaying the game. »
« For those who want to give the series a try, or for those are already invested in this series, Escha & Logy definitely has something for everyone. »
« The game is the perfect entry for newcomers to the series and also provides plenty of depth and Atelier staples for those series veterans. The improved combat, ease of item crafting, and the relaxed time constraints make for an enjoyable game without making it a snooze fest. »
« Impressively balanced in a way that makes the game difficult to put down. »
« Yet another charming, low-stress Atelier title that provides a good respite from the melodrama of its RPG peers. »
« Excellent crafting system and great combat make up for bland story and uninteresting characters. [07/2014, p.68] »

« Música excelente, sistema de combate genial, pero tienes que hacer mucho grinding para ser competente y además tienes límite de tiempo para poder terminar el juego. »
« this Atelier game was a great step forward in the series and in my opinion also had the most interesting Story of all the Atelier games i played so far. Great Story and Characters and the world is lovely. »
« Critic Review Score: 97. One of the best games I have played. Very interesting story and it is not very niche compared to other games. Very good, despite the flaws in which are minor. This game cannot be missed. It passes on where the atelier series left off. Very good game for those of you who want to have a good time to relax and spend time on playing this game. I guarantee that you will want to lend it to your friends so they could give it a try as well. Again, one of the best games for the ps3 if not the best(ist) of all time. The story line also feels realistic so you don't have to worry about being disappointed, »
« did not love this atelier either. the story is not engaging and the time management system is annoying and won't let you explore and develope at you own base. Atelier Aysha's story was sweet but time-management is not...time managemnt **** the fun out of games specially RPG ones, if you want a great atelier game/RPG on PS3 then skip it all together to Atelier Shallie: now that's how you make RPG! »
« This was the shortest game I ever played. It's not that I didn't like it I did have fun playing it, I didn't like how short the main story was and the camera angle. This game has a good combat system and the graphics are alright, if the main quest where little longer I would of liked it better. I don't know of it was I played it wrong that made it short. »

« While the story is rather uninteresting and the graphics are pretty Bland Atelier Escha and Logy Alchemists of the Dusk Sky more than makes up for it with a excellent battle and crafting system. »
« This was/is my first Atelier game, and I started off on Logy's storyline and didn't really expect much. I must say I was shocked over how well this game actually seems to turn out. I remember seeing reviews of these games series down at 5/10 and 6/10, calling it niches and what not. Ok, maybe this game in particular is way better than the older ones, but as a newcomer to the series I had nothing to compare it to and tbh not much to complain about. The combat is entertaining and constantly evolving, adding new characters in a good paste and the crafting... I can not remembering enjoying crafting at such a level before... The closest I can think of is the Witcher series, but even them should take a few notes from this series as for how it should be done. Only reason I put it as 9 instead of 10 is that the music could be more diverse as for battle themes, and even though the graphics are good it is not Skyrim or Final Fantasy. These are just minor stuff though, so ye... The game is worth your time. »
