Dimensional rifts started to appear out of magical thunder, introducing a whole new archipelago to the world. These are the Vortex Isles, a place of magical flora, mystical ruins and ever-lasting storm clouds. Upon sailing to the Vortex Isles, Catanians and Lupinians met Humans for the very first time.

This game doesn’t have that issue at all! The ads seem to be 100% optional, which is what i’d love to see in castle cats. I had to completely stop playing the other game due to how constant the unwanted ads were, I’d love to see more games like this instead. I love how the shop energy is able to be upgraded, if I had any criticism it would be to make the merge energy the same, where you can upgrade the total amount. Castle Cats could use the advertisement approach this game offers, where they’re only available to speed things up or provide a boost in materials. ### 1/5 — Refund me ! *2025-12-26* I bought Islands twice for €9,99. I was charged but I never received the island unlock. I emailed costumer support and no one replied. Don’t download this game - it’s a scam !!! ### 4/5 — Nice game! *2025-08-22* I like the game even though I agree it’s got bugs. I don’t really care, still like it. Only I’d really appreciate it if someone tells me how I can take back the use of 3 crafting cauldron slots out of 4 that are available to me, but unusable. They are stuck, items to craft have been put into, but remain inactive. I even deleted the app and reinstalled it, still no use. Somebody, pls? ### 1/5 — Scam/Glitch *2025-01-28* Bought the starter island + material pack and got charged on my card but i didnt get the island or the materials ### 5/5 — Fun Idle Merge Game *2024-12-01* I’ve had Alchimerge for about a week now and I’m enjoying it so far. I like having a store to run and crafting different items for customers. Sometimes I run out of energy fairly quickly, but it’s a bit necessary for me otherwise I’d end up playing this game all day and I need a hard limit lol. I tend to get bored of merge games fairly quickly because it starts to take too long to advance after a certain point, but having the store to run on the side while merging items helps it not feel so boring. The style is cute and I like having a character to customize (and the store too) as well! Great time waster game to check in on here and there throughout the day. One bug I would like to point out however, is the item and crafting menus at times refuse to open. I will tap the menu open, and it’ll immediately close over and over again. It’s very minor and goes away after restarting the app, but it happens often enough it’s worth mentioning. ### 1/5 — Terrible game. *2024-06-27, version 1.7.4* Just ✨T E R R I B L E✨ ### 1/5 — The chat is broken *2023-11-27, version 1.7.4* There is no chat button, but there was before. I think it’s been like this for a month or two now. I don’t know why, just please fix it. ### 1/5 — iPad froze *2023-08-05, version 1.7.3* The game made my iPad freeze for a solid 5 minutes before my iPad would respond to anything. ### 1/5 — Stopped working after last update *2023-03-29* It’s no longer working… something went wrong (21) Tried restarting. Just keep getting the same error message ### 5/5 — Different, but fun. *2023-03-05* I wasn’t expecting much at first. But as I kept merging, selling, expanding. I am quite fond of this game! Definitely one I will either keep long term or forever more. **Developer response:** Thanks for the amazing review! 🌸 We hope you can have a lovely time in AlchiMerge! ## Frequently asked questions about AlchiMerge ### What is AlchiMerge: Merge & Craft about?
