Alchemists

Fire up the cauldron and sharpen your wit...

Alchemists invites you into a bubbling world of mystical science, bold experimentation, and academic one-upmanship! As a daring potion-brewer, you'll mix eye of newt with scorpion tail, not just to impress adventurers, but to crack the secret codes of alchemical truth. Using a companion app to randomize ingredient reactions in each game, you'll test your theories (sometimes on yourself, sometimes on an unfortunate assistant), and publish your findings to gain that most elusive of treasures: scholarly prestige.

With only six rounds to build your reputation, every decision matters—will you race to publish first, or wait for more evidence? Will you splurge on a powerful magical artifact to boost your experiments, or hustle shady potions to gullible travelers for quick cash? In Alchemists, the path to glory is paved with calculated risks, clever deduction, and a bit of bluffing. Fame, fortune, and eternal bragging rights await the alchemist with the sharpest mind and the steadiest stirring hand!
