You can find the list with all the 350 elements in Alchemy 1.3 here.
One new cool feature is the availability of hints. Press the new Hints button and a window pops-up displaying one possible element you can create, indicating also one of the two elements used to create it. To close the hints window, just click anywhere on it.

Another feature available in version 1.3 is adding elements to the desktop area by double clicking on them in the unlocked elements list. Terminal elements cannot be added to the desktop.
Note: if you already played Alchemy, just replace the old executable with the new one. Don’t delete the user settings file having your account name and extension .aus, or you loose the elements and combinations you unlocked so far.

Hey,
I think there might be a bug. I have 35 elements, but nothing “living” I am also getting a hint that says make water to ocean, and i tested all items, no ocean. Any ideas? Thanks for the game! Love it!
Keep up the good work.
Is it allright to place a link for alchemy on my hyves site ? (Hyves is an community site like facebook special for dutch people).
Sarah, trust me, there is no bug. The combinations are checked formally. The hint tells you to make ocean out of water. It’s the right hint. But you know, sometimes you can obtain a new element by combining twice the same instance, such as Water + Water.
Ruud, sure you can place a link to any site you want. I encourage you to do it. 🙂 And BTW, I’m thinking about your proposal with localization, but I don’t want to make big promises now.
I have been trying to create “life” but somehow it just doesn’t want to happen, I feel like I have a bug in the game…
Life is very possible to obtain. In fact it’s the eleventh element I have put in place. 😉 Think about where the life appeared. It was the ocean where the first life forms were born.
cant get teh dl to work.. i unzipped it and i get a beaker icon but when i click it is no good…
What version of .Net do you need?
I have version 4, and it just won’t install.
If you need an earlier version, where can I find it?
Thank you for doing this, its just so great 🙂
@fred, you don’t need no installation for Alchemy. Just unzip the archive and run the executable. It works with .NET 4.0 too, because it contains everything 3.5 has.
@katy, do you have .NET 3.5 SP1 or .NET 4.0 installed?
I’m stuck. I have 103 elements and I have done every combo but no new element. What do I do?
Use the Hints button to show you what else you could do next.
Hey Marius …
Let me help you with localization to Portuguese?
Mail me 🙂
man can be made from beast an life. beast can be made from earth an lizzard.
how do u make life
Did you try the hints? Where did life appear for the first time? What did it need?
I’m using the hints and it says to make Warcraft from Lich King. I don’t play the game so I have no clue. Google isn’t helping me and it’s too much to try every one of the 300+ items I already have. Any help?
Well, Warcraft is a computer game, isn’t it?
How about Queen of Blades, from Zerg? I tried Arms, knife, assassin, Infestation, Warrior, King, Pharaoh… – anything that remotely made sense to me. Hint, please!
Well, she a sort of hero, right?
Thanks! I thought I’d tried that one, too. I notice (and it might just be my – insert expletive here – computer) sometimes I have to let one element sit atop another for kind of a while to make a combination.
Might be so, but I could look at it I there is a reproducible behavior. Otherwise I’ll just be shooting in the dark.
