Great app until recently
My new iPhone camera doesn’t seem to play nicely with the scanning anymore. It really struggles to find the cards. Maybe it would be nice to be able to select the ingredients manually if the scanner isn’t working.
Alchemists: Lab Equipment
Published by: CGE Digital s.r.o
Description
This is a supplementary app for board game Alchemists from Czech Games Edition. It allows players to scan ingredient cards from the board game to find out what potions they can create.
It also help players who do not have the board game, but are interested in the mechanics, to learn the rules or the game. And they can even experience the mixing of potions and try out their skills as academics. So if that's your case follow these steps:
1. Tap [settings], then under Ingredients selection: chose "Select by hand". From now on, you won't need to scan actual cards, you will just chose them mechanically.
2. Tap [Start new game], this will randomize correct solutions.
3. Tap [Drink Potion] to perform your first test. Choose any two ingredients you wish and tap [confirm] to combine them. They will give you a certain color and sign. Note the result.
4. Repeat step 3 as many times as needed, to find out what ingredient contains what alchemical.
How many tests do you need to perform to find out all correct answers?
To check if all your answers are correct, tap [Final round] and then [Show answers].
If you want to find out more about the rules of the game, you can also tap the INFO button to learn everything there is about mixing potions.x

Great - but needs history
This app works very well but definitely could use a section to show the history of what you’ve done.
Fantastic app to a fantastic board game
I love using this app with the Alchemist board game, which is one of my favorite deduction games. If you were weary when app integration first came to tabletop gaming, don’t be. It is here to stay. While Alchemist is one of the first it is also one of the best to use an app for proper gameplay. Do yourself a favor and pick up this game to become a master alchemist!!!
Tutorial? Words? Something?
It would be great to have any idea what any of this game was. A basic tutorial, or even just some sort of text to know what you’re doing.
Fun
This is a fun board game and the app worked great for us. You do need the physical game if you want to play (vs. just learn how potions work in the app) - the app is not a game by itself.
Instructions?
I have no idea what this game is or how to play. It accesses the camera and seems to assume that players will know what to do next. I got bored of randomly stabbing at buttons without any understanding and I quit. Production quality is simplistic.
It's Great Again!
The newest update has fixed the enter game code issue! The app is once great again!
Nothing works
Have rarely encountered a less function app. Does not allow you to enter a game code or to enter cards by any means.
Bugs with iOS 10
The enter code option no longer works in iOS 10
Does not function on iOS 10
When trying to test a set of cards the app instantly crashes. Entering a code does not work either.
