Right now, you can join the millions of players as they explore the vast world of Alchemy Stars and check out the latest additions to the game:
Kick Back and Relax in Your Own Home with the Addition of Cloud Gardens: After a years-long battle, Alchemy Stars brings in exciting new ways to play! Take a break from battle in Cloud Gardens, and explore a new feature where players can create and personalize their own home base. There, players will be able to gather resources, craft items, and shelters and build their own utopia by purchasing decor through the shop and personalizing their homes to make it truly their own. Afterward, you can invite your friends and socialize in your unique paradise, share decorating tips, and bond by enjoying one of the many activities together.
A New Friend Has Appeared! The Grand Marshal of Illumia, Reinhardt is Here: The Grand Marshal of Illumina, the people's very own beacon of hope, Reinhardt herself, makes her glorious debut to Alchemy Stars! Known throughout all of Illumina for her rebellious and unrestricted nature, those closest to Reinhardt came to know her as an affectionate and sacrificial leader. She joins the protagonist in their battle against the Forsakin and the Eclipsites, with her scorching Star-Piercing Spear in hand, and bolts of lightning at her fingertips. This makes her an invaluable ally in the fight against the Eclipsites.
With a Hero’s Return Brings Exciting New Story Episodes: With the launch of the first anniversary update, exciting new Episodes will be added to the Alchemy Star’s storyline. After spending many years away, Reinhardt — the Grand Marshal of Illumina — was called back home. As the player makes the long journey accompanied by their companion Carleen, a routine overhaul causes the mechanical giant, Colossus, to suddenly and unexpectedly initiate its start-up protocol, and launches into the skies. By tracking the colossus through its internal systems, our heroes discover its destination: the desolate valley of Eraveil, the home of the ancient Colossi and Caelestites.
Celebrate Alchemy Stars One-Year Anniversary with In-Game Presents: On top of all that, players that log in during the anniversary week of Alchemy Stars will be gifted fantastic in-game rewards, including a free 6-Star Aurorian, Vice: Keen Sight, Star Flares, Recharger Packs, Nightium, General Jasper II, Colossus Patch II, Sublime, and much more! As well, during the event players can gain additional login and Discovery Event bonus items, including Lumamber, additional Star Flare and Special Star Flare, and bonus Recruitment Spirit. A full list of Anniversary Event bonus items can be found here.
Alchemy Stars seamlessly merges magic and technology in both its world and mechanics. The game’s innovative combat blends RPG, “Gacha”, and strategy elements, with each stage presenting a fresh challenge. Players can collect tons of unique characters, create their ideal party, and battle using the game’s unique tile-connecting gameplay. Matching the character’s attribute with the correct colored tiles allows players to unleash special attacks. Alchemy Stars further enhances its strategic gameplay by giving players the ability to change leaders multiple times, allowing for a more intriguing tactical experience.
In the world of Alchemy Stars, light and darkness collide. Aurorians and Caelestites have lived peacefully on the land of Astra for hundreds of years until they are forced to face a mysterious threat: dark creatures known as Eclipsites, sent to exterminate the Caelestites. While exploring the world of Astra, players will discover the six distinct factions in the game and will traverse a beautifully designed world. Exotic locations include a bustling metropolis nestled beneath the world’s surface, a remote dwelling high atop Astra’s mountains, and other fascinating territories.
Alchemy Stars and its 1st Anniversary update are available as a free download for Android and iOS devices via the Google Play Store and Apple Store.
