Overall the graphics are cute and stylish, the experimentation range is absolutely massive, and finding all combinations will take you many, many hours. The campaign mode is solid with many levels to play on all difficulties. As for trophy hunters, the good news is there is a Platinum trophy for Alchemic Jousts. The bad news is that it’s going to be a very time consuming and challenging Platinum to achieve, so the sooner you get started and the more you practice, the more progress you’ll make towards unlocking it.

There are dozens and dozens of different elemental monsters to discover, and that’s half the joy of the game. The other half is the bright charm and personality of Alchemic Jousts. It’s not the deepest strategy game you’ll ever play, but it’s one of the most charming that you’ll see for some time to come. Clockwork Tales: Of Glass and Ink (Sony PlayStation 4) Hidden object games are a fairly safe bet; you know if they’re the kind of game for you before you even start playing one.

For such a seemingly bare-bones title, Alchemic Jousts is sure packed to the brim with stuff to do. There is a huge amount of levels to play through, offering an always escalating sense of vulnerability, with each offering three difficulty levels (easy, medium and hard).

Alchemic Jousts offers a truly imaginative idea and makes it as monotonous as possible. Can be fun in short bursts or with a friend, but otherwise, you will find better examples of single-player titles elsewhere in this genre.
