June 12, 2019 by cassn

You are an adept of the mysterious art of alchemy, seeking a way to become the successor of the greatest alchemist ever living — Hermes Trismegistus. In order to do so, you will be transmuting mere metals into pure gold, performing experiments, and inventing artifacts to finally achieve everlasting greatness.

Trismegistus: The Ultimate Formula is an engine-building game in which you must draft custom dice, and use these dice to transmute precious materials, collect alchemical essences, purchase and use artifacts, and perform mystical experiments which will progress your research along four different mastery tracks.

Through clever connections and strategic scientific breakthroughs, you will build up your alchemic prowess and work against your competitors and find the formula for the Philosopher's Stone!

Alongside these public tasks, you will also have a hand of private, secret publications which you can complete to earn more points. Only the greatest sorcerer will be crowned the successor to the great Hermes Trismegistus and become the greatest alchemist of all time!

Trismegistus: The Ultimate Formula is from first-time game designer Federico Pierlorenzi and veteran Daniele Tascini, the mind behind Teotihuacan: City of Gods.

Publisher Board & Dice have promised Trismegistus: The Ultimate Formula will carry the same strategic complexity as Teotihuacan: City of Gods, so this has become the highly anticipated game for Essen Spiel 2019, where it will be released in October. In the meantime, you can check it out in more detail on the Board & Dice website.

Did you know: Trismegistus was the founder of Hermeticism, which states that the wisdom of the universe can be divided into three parts: Alchemy (sun), Astrology (stars), and Theurgy (gods)!
