3''Little Alchemy 2'' is a puzzle BrowserGame (and also a MobilePhoneGame) and sequel to the original ''VideoGame/LittleAlchemy''. Much like the original game, you combine items together to make new items. You start with only the four ClassicalElements; 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.

5The game can be played on [[https://littlealchemy2.com/ 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.
