In Chimerium, a game by Éric Dubus & Olivier Melison, you are a magician striving to save magic in a Victorian world threatened by industrialization.

Enter the Chimerium and master the art of alchemy in this strategy game! Select dice to study new species and obtain powerful Artifacts for your laboratory. Manage your resources to create unique Chimeras and trigger cascading combo effects.

Timing is everything. You must aim to release your creatures into the Aether Nexus at the perfect moment to extend your influence.

Manipulate dice values, anticipate your opponents’ moves, and dominate the majority battles to become the true Master of the Chimerium!

Features:

Deep Engine Building: Build a unique engine in your Laboratory. Use Gems, Scrolls, and Elixirs to manipulate the value and color of your dice, creating the flexibility needed to chain powerful combos and maximize your turns.

Tactical Majority Battles: Interaction is key! Releasing Chimeras isn’t just about scoring; it allows you to place cubes in the Nexus. Fight for control in tense majority battles that shift every round, requiring constant adaptation to your opponents’ strategies.

Robust Solo Challenge: Face off against the Archmage Sapphia Lorekeeper herself. The dedicated Solo Mode features an intelligent “Automa” deck with variable behaviors and difficulty levels, offering infinite replayability for solo strategists.
