  • Alchemy is a computer puzzle game from PopCap Games first introduced on August 29, 2001, and initially available only on the Windows platform. In May 2002, a version was made for the Mac platform. That June, a version was released that was available for shipping. That September, a handheld version was released. This title can be played for free online at various websites minus some components, or a full version can be downloaded and unlocked for a fee. On mobile devices, the game can only be played if downloaded for a fee. The objective of the game is to turn a board of squares from lead to gold by placing randomly generated symbols called runes on every square.
    Each play consists of a rune of a random color and shape being generated by the computer. The rune must be placed directly adjacent to at least one other rune (either above, below, or to the left or right; runes located at a diagonal to the square have no meaning), unless the board is totally blank. All runes that are adjacent to the square where a rune is being placed must share its color or shape.
    Their first game as PopCap was Bejeweled, a gem-swapping game, which was supported on all major platforms and awarded by Computer Gaming World Hall Of Fame in 2002. The company expanded in 2005 with the acquisition of Sprout Games, a Seattle-based casual games developer company like PopCap Games, founded by James Gwertzman. Sprout Games is the creator of the game Feeding Frenzy. The Sprout team helped PopCap to make a sequel to the game, Feeding Frenzy 2: Shipwreck Showdown, with Gwertzman becoming the Director of Business Development at PopCap. In early 2006, PopCap International was opened, based in Dublin, Ireland, working on product localization, mobile games development, marketing, sales and business development.

    This game has 24 levels where every level, a new symbol is added, and every 4 levels a new color is added.
    Medium starts on level 6, and hard starts on level 11.
    On level 24 (19 in medium, and 14 in expert) the last symbol is an invisible symbol. After that level the game continues with infinite levels with a full symbol and color set until you get to the highest 32 bit integer (2.14 billion)

    The old PopCap Classics like this one will live long well after all mobile games died. Evergreen games. In an unlikely event of the internet being shut down, these will continue to be played.
    I discovered this game upon watching Rubycored's gameplay.

    I played this when I was little, I didn't know these symbols before, but now, I knew they are all zodiac signs. There was Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, and other zodiac signs.
