About this game

Light the athanor.
Drag the four primal elements into the Circle of Binding. Watch burning ley-lines race around the crucible. A new element rises — its true name burning across the board in gold.

Athanor: Alchemy Merge is a hand-crafted discovery game in the tradition of classic alchemy chains, themed as a dark alchemist's working circle.

▸ DISCOVER 190 ELEMENTS
Start with Water, Fire, Earth, and Air. Combine them, then combine what they produce — the chain stretches from puddles and embers all the way to gods, miracles, and the philosopher's stone. 158 hand-authored pair recipes plus 29 multi-input rituals waiting to be found.

▸ RITUAL, NOT TAPPING
Every discovery is a small ceremony. Drag two — or three, or four, or five — elements into the slots of an inscribed sigil. The crucible ignites. Channels race clockwise around the rim. The result rises in a pillar of gold, and its name burns across the board like a Ring of Power inscription.

▸ RISE THROUGH EIGHT RANKS
Initiate. Apprentice. Adept. Scholar. Mystic. Sage. Archmage. Demiurge.
Each rank shifts the sigil under your circle — from the twin lenses of the Vesica Piscis to the inscribed Triquetra, the four-fold Squaring of the Circle, and finally the five-pointed Pentacle. Wider sigils unlock deeper recipes that no two-element pair can reach.

▸ A LIVING LIBRARY
Every element you discover joins your grimoire. Filter by category, sort by recent discovery, or search by name. Tap any tile to open its Lineage — what made it, and what it makes. Open the Tree of Forging to see every discovery branching out from the four primal seeds.

▸ STUCK? BURN THE FLAME
Tap the Hint button when you're at a wall — a rewarded ad reveals the two ingredients of an undiscovered recipe whose elements you already own. The result stays a mystery. The flame keeps no count of your favors.

▸ CLOUD SAVE — YOUR GRIMOIRE FOLLOWS YOU
Your progress saves automatically as you play, and syncs to the cloud through Google Play Games — pick up your run across reinstalls and new devices without lifting a finger. Discoveries are forever; only Reset can erase them, and only after a double confirmation.

▸ NO TIMERS. NO ENERGY METERS. NO PAYWALLS.
No stamina bars, no waiting, no forced login. Open the app, drag two elements together, and you've started discovering. (Cloud save uses Google Play Games automatically when you're signed in — but you never have to be.)

Built by a solo developer. Vanilla code, no engine bloat. Optimized for landscape phones — touch-friendly drag, generous tap targets, and small candlelit details everywhere you look.
