Hi Crushers!

I suck BIG time at this game lol. Let me see if I can find some instructions for you brb ...... hehee

Game Description:
Place the magical runes on the board and turn them into gold to advance to the next level.

Game Instructions:
Match up the according symbols on the screen to advance. More detailed instructions are to be found in the game.

Shocked

roflmaoooo well that is about as clear as mud huh? lmaooo

brb lol

Okie dokie kids here are some more instructions: lmao I'm sorry I will continue to look for terms that someone might understand. (or at least me) lol

3.0 INSTRUCTIONS

3.1 GOAL

The object of the game is to transform the entire board into gold by placing magic RUNES on every square. When you turn a whole board to gold, you will proceed to the next, where you earn more points but the game becomes more difficult.

3.2 GAME ELEMENTS

RUNES are magical symbols that come in different shapes and colors. You place these on the board to change the square underneath to gold. Runes must be placed next to an existing Rune, and they must match all adjacent Runes in either their shape, their color, or both.

STONES are grey blocks that act as "wild cards." Any type of Rune can be placed next to a Stone.

SKULLS are magical "bombs." You can place them on any existing Rune to destroy it.

The FORGE is the round metal object on the left sidebar. It fills with molten lava whenever you discard a Rune, and cools down when you place a Rune successfully. When you fill the Forge completely, the game will end.

3.3 HOW TO PLACE RUNES

It is highly recommended you play the TUTORIAL included in the game. This will show you the rules of the game in an easy to understand manner.

When you start your first game, you will see a grey Stone in the center of the board. You will place your first Rune next to this Stone.

After that, you will receive a series of randomly chosen Runes that you must place on the board.

Remember:

Runes must be placed next to another Rune already on the board.

Runes must match the shape or color of all Runes they're placed next to.

Placing a Rune on a square changes that square to gold. The square remains gold even if the Rune is later destroyed. When the entire board has been changed to gold, you will proceed to the next level.

3.4 DISCARDING RUNES

Sometimes you won't be able to place a Rune anywhere on the board. At this point you'll have to discard the Rune.

You can discard by either clicking on the Discard button on the left hand sidebar, or by right-clicking your mouse.

3.5 THE FORGE

Every time you discard a Rune, the Forge will fill partway with lava. When the forge is completely full, the game is over.

You can cool the Forge down by successfully placing Runes on the board. Every time you place a Rune, the Forge will cool down by one step.

3.6 ROWS AND COLUMNS

You will have to clear Runes from the board in order to successfully change every square to gold. The easiest way to do this is by creating a complete row or column of Runes.

Whenever you complete a full row across or a column up and down, all the Runes in that line will disappear from the board. The squares beneath will remain gold.

3.7 STONES

Sometimes you will receive a grey Stone instead of a Rune. The Stones are wild cards. Any type of Rune can be placed next to a Stone.

Be careful with Stones! They can be crucial in solving a difficult board, so use them with caution.

3.8 SKULLS

Sometimes you will receive a spinning Skull instead of a Rune. The Skulls are magical "bombs" that you can use to destroy any Rune already on the board. Just click on the target Rune to destroy it.

Skulls can be useful in clearing areas that have gotten tangled up with too many Runes.

3.9 HINTS

If you're stuck, you can click on the question mark button on the sidebar. This will show you the possible spots on the board that you could place your current Rune (if any are available).

However, each time you use the Hint feature, you will be penalized a number of points. On Easy level, you are penalized 25 points, on Average difficulty, 50 points, and on Hard, 100 points.

Alchemy is a very popular game and I know we have many that probably would lend a helping hand if they knew how desperate we are .... Please Smile

Good luck Crushers!

Happy Gaming Always!

Oh, I just don't do this game well at all!

Is it just me, or does this game take you forever and ever to finish??

You people who are getting those high scores... how long did those games last... any idea? Seems like one game would last HOURS!

Is that possible?

Anybody?

THANKS FOR ANY HELP!!!
