## What is Alchemica?

Fill the cauldron. Spark the reactions. Complete the Great Work.

Alchemica is a roguelite card game about placement. Every turn you place ingredient cards on a 3x3 cauldron, and where they sit matters as much as what they are.

REACTIONS
Cards react with their neighbours. Fire and Water make Steam. Water and Earth make Clay. Earth and Air make Dust. Air and Fire make Blaze, but Blaze burns the weaker card. Line up one element across a row, column or diagonal for a Sigil. Fill both diagonals for the Philosopher's Cross.

BUILD YOUR RUN
• 27 Reagents that bend the rules
• The Formula board: level up any reaction, any time you visit the shop
• 5 Tinctures to reshape your deck: transmute, distill, purge, duplicate, or turn a card into Aether
• 6 Circles, each ending in a Trial that changes the rules
• 8 Stakes for when you want it harder

GRIMOIRES
Start a run from a different deck. Grimoire of Embers chases Blaze combos, Grimoire of Tides builds a Clay engine, and Grimoire of Quintessence brings Aether wildcards that complete any Sigil. (Optional in-app purchases.)

A NEW DAILY BREW EVERY DAY
The same seeded run for every player, every day, always on the standard deck. A quick three-Circle challenge.

PLAY YOUR WAY
• Short runs that pause and resume anywhere
• Plays offline
• No energy timers, no gacha
• Four looks for the cauldron: Classic, plus Obsidian & Gold, Verdant Grove and Celestial themes
• Ads between runs, removable with a one-time purchase
