'Alchemist Adventure' Early Access Update Adds New Items, Characters, and Regions

by Rainier on Sept. 10, 2020 @ 7:00 a.m. PDT

Alchemist Adventure is an action-adventure game with RPG elements set in the mysterious fantasy world filled with the wonders of alchemy.

Enter a fantasy world waiting to be explored. Follow the story of Mya, a young alchemist trying to solve the mystery of a forgotten land while searching for her loved ones. Solve puzzles and fight monsters using the power of alchemy granted by combining fire, water, air, earth, and many ingredients.

Alchemist Adventure is an action-adventure game that takes place in an abandoned region called Isur. Long ago it was the home of the brilliant and yet dangerous alchemists, but now lies abandoned and devastated. You play as Mya, an alchemist who has just woken up and finds herself in an unknown place, confused and with no memories of what happened. To explore the world you will need to use the power gained through combining the four elements — fire, water, air, earth — along with various ingredients. By making different potions, you will be able to explore the regions, solve alchemical puzzles, and fight dreadful enemies.

For a long time, Isur was the capital of the region ruled by the alchemists, and thanks to the volcano that provided powerful resources, it was a thriving trade port. Ruled by the Council of Seven Master Alchemists, the city was known as a place where you can buy everything and, if you’re lucky, even gain some of the alchemists’ knowledge. Not many were chosen to become alchemists, and the Council always guarded their secrets carefully. Your journey will take place in 4 themed regions that are all connected to the central area.

Today, the third and latest update has arrived, and it takes players to all-new regions, adds new collectibles and cosmetics, fresh gear, new characters, and most importantly — the Round Flask — a handy new explosive device sure to shake things up!

Today’s update allows players access to an awesome new tool — the Round Flask — which lets them create powerful explosion bombs and grants them access to the all-new areas of the game, like The Forest and The Sewers. Not only that, but Mya will meet plenty of new characters and discover a ton of new collectibles, like special gear, Alkimos, lab items, maps, and awesome Homunculus Hats, all while engaging in all sorts of intense (but super fun) challenges!

New Friends Bring New Challenges!

  • Papi and the Color Challenge

  • The Maze: While you won’t find a magical David Bowie, you will find an enormous and intimidating labyrinth that promises an excellent reward for any who make it to the end
  • The South District: “...and I live in a van down by the river!” Well, not quite, but this region of Isur does feature mysteriously vacant houses along the banks of the waterway ripe for investigation

Alchemist Adventure is now available on Steam Early Access for $11.99.

The alchemy system plays a central role in the game and you are free to create your own potions as there are no limitations or predetermined recipes.

To create a potion, you will need to use one or several of the 4 primary elements: fire, water, air, and earth. Combining them and adding special ingredients will open up new possibilities and effects.

Unveil the secrets of the mysterious world and discover your story!
