Lunar Alchemy slot
A laboratory under the moon, the alchemist Selene Vaux and her small winged companion. Seven columns, five rows, no paylines, and a moon that changes the grid as the drops go on.
Updated 3 October 2026
Released on 3 October 2026, Lunar Alchemy is a cluster-pays online slot by Nocturn Play with a maximum win of 5,000× the bet. It is the one in our catalogue where the background matters: the moon in the window is part of the maths.
Groups of eight, then the drop
Forget lines. Any 8 or more identical symbols that touch, side by side or diagonally, form a winning group. The group pays, vanishes, and new symbols fall into the holes. If they make another group, it pays and drops again, and so on until the grid stops producing wins. The diagonal rule matters more than it sounds: shapes that would be dead on most cluster slots still connect here.
The cheaper symbols are four vials (turquoise, violet, amber, rose). Above them sit small, medium and large crystals.
New moon, crescent, full moon
Every drop pushes the moon one phase on: new moon, then crescent, then full moon. When the full moon arrives, each winning group gives up one simple potion, which becomes a precious crystal; the potion most present on the grid is the one that changes. In other words, the longer a sequence runs, the richer the grid gets.
Bombs that wait for the end
Bombs carry a multiplier from ×2 to ×100. They don't go off when they land. They sit on the grid through every drop and explode only when the sequence is over; their values are added together and the total multiplies the win of that sequence. A ×4 and a ×10 left standing make ×14.
The Philosopher's Stone and The Great Work
Four or more Philosopher's Stones anywhere pay an instant prize and start The Great Work: 10 free spins for 4 stones, 12 for 5, 15 for 6 or more. Three more stones during the bonus add 5 spins. In The Great Work bombs turn up much more often, and the moon keeps its phase from one spin to the next instead of starting again at new moon. If you would rather not wait for the stones, you can buy your way into The Great Work for 60.3× the bet.
Is it for you?
If you enjoy watching one spin turn into a long chain, yes. Players who prefer a fixed number of lines and a clear "spin, result, next" rhythm will be happier with Obsidian Pharaoh. Lunar Alchemy has autoplay and a fast mode, like all six October releases, and you can play it for free at the top of this page.
Operators connected to SoftAggregator's casino game API found Lunar Alchemy in their lobby on release day, with no action needed.
Frequently asked questions
How do you win on Lunar Alchemy?
Land 8 or more identical symbols touching each other, horizontally, vertically or diagonally, anywhere on the 7×5 grid. Winning symbols vanish and new ones drop in, which can create more wins.
What does the full moon do?
Each drop advances the moon one phase. At full moon, a simple potion symbol of every winning group turns into a precious crystal, worth more.
How do bombs work in Lunar Alchemy?
Each bomb holds ×2 to ×100 and stays on the grid during the drops. At the end of the sequence all bombs explode, their values add up and the total multiplies the win.
How many free spins does Lunar Alchemy give?
10, 12 or 15 free spins for 4, 5 or 6+ Philosopher's Stones, plus 5 spins for 3 more stones during the bonus. The bonus can also be bought outright at 60.3× the bet.
