The Codex of Alchemical Engineering
Categories: Flash, Free, Games, Online, Puzzle, Walkthrough

The Codex of Alchemical Engineering is a puzzle game from Zachtronic Industries that requires you to program robotic manipulator arms with sets of symbols that control their motion.
Designed “for engineers”, this game is not easy to understand at first (at least it wasn’t for me), so instead of trying how to explain the game works, here is a video tutorial on how to complete the two first levels.
The Codex of Alchemical Engineering is an interesting and challenging game, but as mentioned before, it was designed for engineers!

I’ve started doing levels using one half of the map… and copying the solution to the other side… looks like this (Black Powder):

Here’s my own solution to 11. Black Powder
Quite efficient, only 69 cycles….
