Ars Magna: Alchemy & Survival

Learn the basics in a playable tutorial. Discover hourly hint ads, clearer expedition guidance and reforging that improves your chosen stat.

Ars Magna is an alchemy game in two halves. In the Vessel you fuse elements to discover new ones. In the Cinderhouse you take what you built down into the fight.

Shorter expeditions with recall and Gear Gems, forge rerolls that keep the stat, and a minimap that finds forgotten ashes and the boss.

THE VESSEL Every element comes from the old correspondence tables: the four elements and the three principles, the seven metals and their planets, the signs, the tarot, the decans, the Sephiroth. Put two together and the rules decide what comes out. There are 60,215 elements across three layers of the work, and each one you craft is a generator that keeps producing while you are away.

THE CINDERHOUSE A survivors-style arena. Pick a character, carry four packets of your own elements down, and hold the ground while the tide comes in. Thirty weapons and fifty-two fusions between them, 560 creatures with a boss for every ward and grade, and a ladder of stages that never ends. Each stage hides four forgotten ashes; find all four before the boss will take a hit.

THE ARMORY Gear drops from the fight: 1,200 base designs, 1,000 epics and 200 legendary sets across ten slots. Wear it, sell it, or reroll its lines at the forge.
