How to play Little Alchemy
Little Alchemy is a discovery game with no timer and no fail state. You start with four basic elements: air, earth, fire and water. Drag one element onto another and, if they combine, a new item appears. From there you keep combining to make things like clouds, dinosaurs, unicorns and spaceships.
The goal is to discover every item in the game. Nothing punishes you for trying odd combinations, so the game is mostly about curiosity and a bit of logic.
Tips for Little Alchemy
- Start by combining the four basic elements with each other. That unlocks the first handful of items quickly.
- Try combining every new item with the basics before moving on. Many items come from simple combinations.
- Think in real-world logic. If something is made of two things in real life, the game often agrees.
- When stuck, combine two items you have never paired. Random experiments often unlock the next batch.
