InfiniteAlchemy (Zalize)
Fuse elements from Water, Fire, Earth and Wind to reach today's target.
Every day: One global target element a day, the same for everyone, plus a short warm-up goal that keeps the streak: combine elements starting from Water, Fire, Earth and Wind to reach it in as few fuses as possible. Sunday is Reverse Day. New at 00:00 UTC. New puzzle: Midnight UTC.
InfiniteAlchemy is the daily crafting game on Zalize Daily Games. Start with four basic elements, combine two at a time, and reach the day's target element in as few steps as you can. Every player shares the same recipes, and first discoveries carry the finder's name.
About InfiniteAlchemy (Zalize)
InfiniteAlchemy starts every player with the four classic elements and lets you combine any two to make something new. The results are generated on the fly, so the tree of things you can make is open-ended, but every player gets the same recipes, so a combination gives the same result for everyone.
Each day brings a short warm-up goal that keeps your streak alive and one global master target. The challenge is to reach that target in as few fusing steps as possible, and the game shows the length of the official path to beat (12 steps on the Saturday we looked, with a warm-up of about 4). Sundays are Reverse Day: you see a finished element and have to work out which two elements combine straight into it, and a Sunday never breaks your streak.
A sandbox mode lets you craft with no goal; anything you find there carries over to the daily. If you are the first player anywhere to discover an element, your name is attached to it.
