Take on the role of a novice student of alchemical arts, taking over the studio of your famous relative. Will you ever match his legend? Take the challenge to become the most famous alchemist in history!

Become a powerful magician! Thanks to Alchemist Simulator, you can feel the thrill of excitement associated with the world of magical ingredients (dragon egg - what to deal with it?), spells, and discovering ancient recipes. Will you brew a love potion or a poison?

Discover an amazing world full of ancient, forgotten recipes and ingredients. Experiment. Be patient and hungry for knowledge. Fortunately, you are not alone - your extraordinary mentor will help you explore the previously unknown arcana of alchemical knowledge and art! Your eternal glory, gold and ... knowledge are at stake!

Who is an alchemist without his precious book? Almanac is your greatest treasure - so take care of its content! Carry out various experiments and note their effects carefully, and soon ... no recipe, contract or order will keep secrets from you. Remember - each magician's source of knowledge is experience, and these - you must first write down, preferably on a solid parchment and seal with a spell before prying eyes.

Along with the fame that surrounds you, responsibility will also increase - the order box will be full of more and more complicated potion orders. So it's time to take care of the workplace. Spend hard-earned gold on improvements to your studio to be able to brew increasingly difficult recipes for your customers!

Guess Who's Ack, Ack Again...

Mars Attracts is a theme park management game set on Mars. Play as the devious Martians from the cult-classic universe of Mars Attacks™ and build your amusement park empire, abducting humans from across history to display in customizable enclosures for the entertainment of curious Martian guests. Study humanity in their natural habitat, or subject them to whatever twisted experiments you can imagine!

Business Is Boomin'!

Take on the role of a Martian CEO and confront the challenge of theme park management — craft the perfect red planet tourist attraction, complete with human enclosures, death-defying rides, and a carefully selected range of amenities. You won’t last long if you can’t turn a profit.

Improvise, Abduct, Overcome

Humans come in all shapes, sizes, and bounciness. Employ advanced Martian technology to procure humans from across history – from Ancient Rome to the Wild West – and build the perfect habitat to ensure they have no idea they ever left.

Control Your Captives

Humans may all look the same, but new research suggests that each one has their own unique personality. Tailor enclosures to appeal to each human’s preferences, or find yourself dealing with an enraged human terrorizing your beautiful park.

It's Probing Time!

For centuries, Martian explorers have scoured the galaxy for signs of intelligent life. So far, no luck. Nevertheless, there is much to be learned by studying human behavior. Maximize their happiness to enlighten your guests on the mysteries of these strange enclosed-brained creatures, or push your captives to the limit and see what breaks. For science, of course.",[897],{"_16":204,"_205":898,"_219":903,"_221":73,"_27":73,"_222":108,"_223":224,"_225":226},[899],{"_208":800,"_209":900,"_211":61,"_212":108,"_213":73,"_214":71,"_215":901,"_217":902},"Mars Attracts - 24,50€ 22,05€","-10% ",2205,"Buy Mars Attracts",{"_229":902,"_230":905,"_232":233,"_234":906,"_236":361,"_238":907},2450,"22,05€","24,50€","https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/2760580/capsule_184x69.jpg?t=1758015401",{"_244":910},"Minimum:
