Description

In alchemy, each classical planet (Moon, Mercury, Venus, Sun, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn) was associated with one of the seven metals known to the classical world (silver, mercury, copper, gold, iron, tin, and lead respectively). As a result, the alchemical glyphs for the metal and associated planet coincide. In this game, you take the role of a medieval alchemist working on the Philosopher's Stone. The Alchemy is a card drafting game where a player has an ability to directly influence scoring rules if they are eager to pay the price. At the end of the game the player, who controls most of the Philosopher's Stone, wins. A short video can be found here:
