A pinch of mandrake root, a raven’s feather, and a dash of risky curiosity… welcome to Alchemists, a rich deduction and strategy game where players compete to uncover the true magical properties of mysterious ingredients. Mix potions, test theories, publish groundbreaking research — or boldly call out flawed science from your opponents. Whether you choose bold experimentation or careful calculation, every decision shapes your reputation in the academic world.
Perform experiments (preferably on students!), sell potions to adventurers for profit, purchase powerful artifacts to enhance your research, and publish theories to earn prestige. But beware — publish too early and your rivals might expose your mistakes. Wait too long, and someone else may claim the glory first.
With its clever app-driven system, Alchemists combines classic Euro-game strategy with modern logic puzzles. The free companion app transforms your device into an ingredient scanner, ensuring each game feels fresh, immersive, and full of tension.
A brilliant mix of deduction, risk management, economic strategy, and academic rivalry, this is the ultimate challenge for clever players who love solving puzzles with high stakes.
