Win the respect of your fellow alchemists by doing experiments on potion ingredients and publishing theories - but making sure those theories are correct is easier said than done. Gain knowledge by mixing ingredients and testing the results using a smartphone app that randomises the rules of alchemy for each new game in this innovative worker-placement game. In Alchemists, 2 to 4 players compete to discover the secrets of their mystical craft. By combining ingredients and testing the results, players deduce the alchemical properties of various elements. The game incorporates a companion app (available on iOS, Android, and Windows) to randomize ingredient combinations, ensuring each playthrough is distinct. Alternatively, a game master can oversee the combinations manually.
