There are games, and then there are games. Alchemy happens to be one so addicting that it makes our eyes bleed.

Seriously – the entire lower half of our keyboard is obscured in inch-thick scab. This makes things quite difficult as we’re the sort that looks-to-type. Don’t worry, though as we’re quickly learning which crusty contours are covering which letters. The B is the easiest to identify because it’s directly under our eyes 70% of te time. Lots of build-up there.

About Alchemy though – it’s probably our favorite online game period. You match colors and shapes to try to fill every square, but it gets more difficult as the board fills – different colors or wrong shapes don’t mix well. It’s kind of like South Africa 15 years ago.

You will love this game. We promise.

Play Alchemy now.
