A weird but fun idea I had. It may or may not work out like I expect it to.
Heavily inspired by little alchemy, but with the goal of making every combination lead to something, no matter how illogical it is.
Game instructions:
You will have some starter “elements”, but not the standard “earth”,“water”,“air"and “fire” but “matter”, “energy”, and"force” for scientific accuracy and ever more possibilities
There is not really a turn system, but you can just reply and list the elements you combine and list the imaginary or real thing you get from combining the elements. Also note that every combination will always produce a result, unlike in the game little alchemy. Once you create a thing or element from a combination, you can use these for worldbuilding.
You can combine these original elements and build from scratch, or add in a real-life object to keep things going faster
Combinations and “elements” can be real or imaginary(but preferably science-based)
Note also that “matter” can be any element or made-up element, “energy” can be any known type of energy or made-up form of energy, and “force” can be any known physical force, such as gravity, or a made up one.
I will go first:
Hydrogen(derived from matter)+Gravity(derived from force) = star
Star+time(derived from matter) = helium
time would be a force technically
But it only exists in the presence of matter so it is a force derived from matter
That is not what I mean. Matter has to be physical, it can not be metaphysical or whatnot. Time is not physical, it is a metaphysical concept
No, time is physical since space and time are connected.
Also, since time happens in the physical world it would be physical even if it wasn’t connected to space.
Yep
Helium+rubber(derived from matter) = balloon
ballon + fire = hot air balloon
Hydrogen+oxygen+heat= water
Water + Earth = Lake
Oxygen + Silicon + Aluminium + Iron + Calcium + Sodium + Potassium + Magnesium + Nickel + Nitrogen + Argon + Titanium + Gold + Sulphur + Hydrogen + Helium + Lithium + Berylium + Boron + Hydrogen + Fluorine + Neon + Phosphorus + Chlorine + Scandium + Vanadium + Chromium + Manganese + Cobalt + Copper + Zink + Galiium + Gamanium + Arsenic + Selenium + Bromine + Krypton + Rubidium + Strontium + Yttrium + Zirconium + Niobium + Molybdenum + Ruthenium + Rhodium + Palladium + Silver + Cadmium + Indium + Tin + Antimony + Tellurium + Iodine + Xenon + Caesium + Barium + Lanthanum + Cerium + Praseodymium + Neodymium + Samarium + Europium + Gadolinium + Terbium + Dysprosium + Holmium + Erbium + Thulium + Ytterbium + Lutetium + Hafnium + Tantalum + Tungsten + Rhenium + Osmium + Iridium + Platinum + Mercury + Thalium + Lead + Bismuth + Thorium + Uranium + Gravity + Time = roughly (planet)Earth
Water + Carbon + Nitrogen + Oxygen + Phosphate + Sulfur + Gravity + Time
= Prochlorococcus + Synechococcus (both marine cyanobacteria)
Life here
Star + Time = Super Nova + Nebula + Black Holes
Life+Time = Evolution
Evolution+Life+Time = Civilization
Lake+lake = ocean
Ocean + ocean = water planet
water planet + water planet = water planetary system
water planetary system + water planetary system = water galaxy
water galaxy + water galaxy = Water Universe
Civilization + Time + Earth = Industry and Electricity
Civilization + Time + Earth + Industry = All the fun tools of war (and some boring peace stuff)
Civilization + Earth + Time = Gunpowder + Bombs too
Civilization + Civilization + Time = War + Alliances
Civilization + War + Bombs + Planes + Uranium + Industry + Electricity + Time =
drumroll drumroll drumroll
Nuclear Bombs
Who wants to do the honor of removing civilzation?
Nuclear Bombs + Some Belgiumin’ Old Belgiumin’ Funky Rituals + Time = Abstractic Bombs (their detonations cause the breakdown of logical reality in the immediate area of the explosion. This effect gets progressively less severe with distance from the epicentre (so with e.g. a bomb the strength of ‘Little Boy’ (the Hiroshima bomb), 100 m from the epicentre you might be completely destroyed, 600 m changed way beyond recognition, while a few kilometres away you might just get a skin cancer)).
Black hole + energy = (Naked) Singularity
Force + Force = Spin
Spin + Planet + Star = Orbit/Day/Night
spin*300 + planet = donut planet
spin + spin + air = vortex
big spin(spin*20) + neutron star =neutron donut
neutron donut + neutron donut = toroidal back hole or several black holes in synchronous orbits with eachother
nuclear bomb + war + humanity = Nuclear war
Nuclear war + Star = Space nuclear war
Space nuclear war + life = Nuclear war between humans and aliens
