Ratings and reviews

It'd be nice if this game had an auto next feature instead of having to manually do it, also it needs to have more levels and combinations because it's shiny and new unlike all the other alchemy games they have going around. Aside from that, it'd also be nice if the infinite mode saves previous project, but it doesn't so it's not as fun. It's just okay.

I played through the first seven levels of Alchehistory before writing this review. Initially, I had a bit of trouble figuring out what the basic interaction to play was- I had never played a "Match 3" game before, and so I assumed that the basic interaction would be through tapping or dragging individual objects. After half a minute of poking at every element on screen, I figured out that I had to drag my finger across three individual elements on screen in order to "match" and combine them. (A little pop-up tip stating that at the start would be a big help!) The basic mechanic of "three related(?) things turn into a logical new thing" is fun- though there's a few that aren't necessarily intuitive. I often found myself brute-forcing new combinations by just trying everything until I found one that works. The music is subtle and unobtrusive, while the tapping and combining sounds communicate clearly and do not distract from the gameplay. Once I got past the first few levels, and had a more diverse puzzle board, the decisions became more strategic. Solid 4/5 stars for a simple, interesting, and free diversion.

Its kind of confusing at first but once you get the hang of it its pretty simple
