Video Game / Little Alchemy 2

Mix items and create the world from scratch! Discover exciting items accompanied by funny descriptions and lose yourself exploring the huge, new library!

Little Alchemy 2 is a puzzle Browser Game (and also a Mobile Phone Game) and sequel to the original Little Alchemy. Much like the original game, you combine items together to make new items. You start with only the four Classical Elements; Fire, Water, Earth and Air. By combining these in different ways and by then combining the results of these combinations, you can make up to 720 different items, from airplanes to farms to ideas to planes to unicorns. Your goal is to find every combination for every item.

The game can be played on browser or mobile. Exclusive to mobile is the Myths & Monsters pack, which adds four additional starter elements; Good, Evil, Immortality and Monster. Combining these elements together, alongside those from the base game, allows for the discovery of an additional 110 mythological/fictional creatures.
