In Alchemists, two to four budding alchemists compete to discover the secrets of their mystical art.
Points can be earned in a variety of ways, but most points are earned by publishing theories, that is, correct theories, and therein lies the rub. The game is played in six rounds.
At the start of the round, players choose their order of play. Those who choose to play later get more rewards. Players declare all their actions by placing cubes on the various action spaces, then each action space is evaluated in order.
Players gain knowledge by mixing ingredients and testing the results using a smartphone app (iOS, Android and also Windows) that randomizes the rules of alchemy for each new game. And if alchemists crave something even more special, they can always buy magic artifacts for an extra boost. There are 9 of them (different for each game) and they are not only very powerful, but also very expensive - but money means nothing when academic pride is at stake! And owning these artifacts will definitely earn you some reputation as well.
Players can also earn money by selling potions of questionable quality to adventurers, but money is only a means to an end. Alchemists don't want riches, after all. They want respect, and respect usually comes from publishing theories.
During the game, players' reputations will rise and fall. After six rounds and a final exhibition, reputation will be converted to points. They will also be scored for artifacts and grants. Then, the secrets of alchemy are revealed and players score points or lose points based on whether their theories were correct. Whoever has the most points at the end of the game wins.
