Community Insight:
This game is so addicting and fun. We cannot put our phone down.
Such a fun game our phone wont let us in it tho but super good.
This game is so much fun and when ever we play it we always wonder what im going to make but sadly the age limit is 13 plus and im 13 but it still doesnt let us play but we started playing when we were 9.
We cant believe Roys bedoys is grounded for a week.
This is beautiful, cheaper than our barber shop haircut that cost a quarter.
No ads no ads no ads definitely our favorite anyways why is it released in 2010.
We love this game sooo much when we are bored we play this game.
Its been like years since we last played this game. Its so nostalgic for us. Im sad its not that popular but im happy we grew up addicted to this app.
If you bored download this app its the best. Many things to craft and learn. This is wife free.
So we got only 200 element badge which we dont have 100 and r0 element award and we dont have hidden gem badge yet which is weird is any of this happening to you? We dont know why this is happened to ours game and we have 230 something elements and we have all hidden gem items and it is very hard to know why and we use some research to find out some cheats. OH SORRY FORGET WHAT we DID THERE- but anyways its a glitch is it or is it normal? Im a ipad user so we can have full screen when we play but im not getting the awards so please fix this if this is a bug or glitch but anyways we love this game!! Please fix the bug tho (hidden gems in our own order: Te ONE RING YET KEYBOAR CAT TARIS NSSIE INJA TURTLE DOE TH DOCTOR ASTRONAUT ICE CREA.
We really think this is best game for your free time when you have nothing to do this has to be a great game! We cant find our way to the last one Ill keep trying. This is a good game to play.
Just have keyboard cat YAY not the sun KEY B04RD C4T.
Very good! Its for chemistry people and everyone! Im not a chemistry person but we love this! Combining the elements is so fun.
We just beat the game and it was so fun.
U SHOULD BUY THIS GAME IT IS SO MUCH FUN.
We thought it was not fun but omg its fun and now we have a hole 2 papers front and back of codes.
Right but house and city can make up from the Disney franchise.
We started on our pc the went to phone this is one of our favorite games 10/10 recommend we just downloaded on our phone after not having our pc for a while we downloaded at 12:00 am and am still playing at almost 2:00 am.
Its good and in our opinion better than the second game.
Our dad showed us this game and now we love it.
We could play Little Alchemy for days literally! If we could rate a million stars for rating this game.
We play this game in class ever day and we got everything about a week ago ima try on here.
Oops we left a bad review because we thought the reset progress button was broken but its just laggy, if you saw the review, developer(s) before we took it down we take everything back so so sorry.
This is honestly really good wow.
We love this game and in two days we got 222 elements and we love this game.
We stayed on this game for hours on end having so much fun and this game was super addictive we enjoyed it so much.
It is the best game when we get a new thing we get excited though it takes a long time we like it and we are getting lil academy 2.
Love this game its fun, addicting, and satisfying! Definitely recommend.
Both this and 2 are amazing games, unlike most of the hyper casual styles, this game has a identity, this game is one of the best, and we recommend it tremendously.
Make fox non final. Add fire with fox for "firefox. Or fox + computer. Fox + internet, maybe fox + nerd.
This is better then the 2nd and is to good to summarize so just get it.
Can you please add back Milky Way,Starburst,cotton candy and Chocolate.
This game is so addictive and its just the best game ever. But we have one question, if there is not a way to make sticks yet can you add that somehow? And maybe you can do stick + drum = drumsticks and human + drum = percussionist? If you can do that we would really appreciate it! Either way this game is so freaking amazing, we love it.
Bro this is the best game ever but roblox is better but yeah this game is great but it will be cool if you can add a grid for the workspace and you should add more elements please do inf Btw add a option where you can change the color of the screen.
We remeber being in like 6th grade , the school gave us chromebooks , this game was on there , everyone n im talking bout everyone was playing this tryna get the highest score , wish we could go back.
We found it on yt and now we love it we showed our teacher it and now we are allowed to play it in are free time in class!:).
We used to play this on a laptop with our dad. Its super cool. Its a simple (for the most part) game without any ads that we know of and you just put elements together. Think everyone should have it in their lives, it could boost younger kids creativity.
We so fun we just can't stop playing and we like how you can make random things that to make them it's a really funny combination like how you can make an atomic bomb, this games is just perfect.
We love it but it wont let us sync our account from our honey to our iPad and we are using the same account. Still great though.
This app cured our boredom the possibilitys are endless.
IF YOU LIKE MAKING STUFF %__%.
Really cool app! But also very challenging! At first its easy but then it gets harder. To anyone who reads this: Air+Fire= energy.
So easy we just started and made Nessie in one day.
Its very fun and pretty easy too! We have spent hours playing this game! It is SOO fun! Hey it rn bc its really really fun.
We remember this game back in like 2019 it was so fun but hard at the same time but it was always a great game.
Omg, this game is awesome us and our brother downloaded this game this morning and already have more than 300 items for anyone who is debating to get it we suggest they should get it if they want a addicting game to stay on for awhile.
When you get things like doge or keyboard cat it will not save in the book but VERY GOOD and we think you should get it.
We playing this game with our sister and the feeling is even though you just connect stuff we love exploring the items HUGE SHOUTOUT TO THE CREATORS.
Memom87 what to you mean buy? Now our review we love this game we even made our brother download this the first thing he wanted to make Was not a surprise but we love we will show our friends this game it is awesome.
