Alchemy for Android

Alchemy is a fun game for Android. The appeal does not lie in flashy graphics or groundbreaking gameplay elements, but primarily in its addictive nature. As the only aim of the game is to combine elements to find new ones, Alchemy for Android might just be the best game to casually pick up for some quick time killing. As there are 330 possible elements in the game (at the time of writing), there are plenty of challenges and longevity is ensured.

The Basics of Alchemy

Although the best hints for Alchemy would without a doubt just be solutions for elements combinations, there are a few basics to be aware of before playing the game.

When first opening the game, the player is presented with four basic elements, namely fire, air, water, and earth. Although already presented in the game itself, it is good to know that double-clicking an empty space will bring up these four elements again at any time. This is especially handy as they are the basic four elements, which will have the most probable effect on newly created elements. The most advisable strategy is therefore always to check a newfound element with any of the basic ones. After all, the newfound element ‘sand’ will happily pair with the basic ‘water’ element to form a ‘beach’!

Many elements will also react with the same element for either a strengthened effect, or opposite effect, so it is always advisable to try new elements with the same one to check its effect. A good example of this would be the ‘dust’ element, which when paired with another ‘dust’ element, will create the ‘ash’ element twice (and vice versa).
