Key information
The demo for Alchemortis has officially launched as part of the Steam Next Fest. Set within a Cthulhu-inspired universe, this title blends backpack-based auto-battler mechanics with alchemy-focused crafting systems.
Players utilize an alchemical cauldron to forge items and relics by combining various materials like abyssal tentacles or toxic reagents. By imbuing mundane objects with divine or demonic properties, users can construct specialized builds such as plague sources or death summoners to trigger effects ranging from erosion to explosive poison.
Strategic inventory management is essential, as players must arrange items within a grid to activate synergy resonances. Defeating bosses allows for the expansion of these grid boundaries and the unlocking of hidden directional abilities, requiring precise calculation to maximize the lethality of each setup.
The game features a progression system where players accumulate forbidden knowledge even after failure. By utilizing an external furnace, users can unlock ancient technologies, relics, and new disciples, ensuring permanent growth through continuous experimentation across various challenging encounters.
