Symbol
Symbols are the atomic building blocks of potions. They come from ingredient cards and are processed and transformed by your alchemical contraption (your board of hex tiles) before being added to your Cauldron (this process is called Propagation). Finally, a player might brew a potion with the contents of their cauldron. They must use all symbols currently in their cauldron to brew a potion.
Symbols are atomic and uniquely defined by 3 characteristics:
- shape (▲, ■, ⬟)
- color (⬤, ⬤, ⬤)
- value (1 to 12, inclusive)
Note What was originally the "hexagon" symbol I am in the progress of migrating to a "pentagon" instead for a few reasons. The current status of this website is mixed, so please keep that in mind.
Notably important to understand that having two symbols or a symbol of value two is different. For example, you can have 1 ▲2 symbol as opposed to 2 ▲1 symbols. You can have duplicated symbols in potions.
