Have you heard about the delightful online game Little Alchemy? In this era of high-stress living, Little Alchemy‘s whimsical style offers relaxing yet educational appeal. As a long-time player and guide writer, let me welcome you to the world of alchemy combinations!
Overview of Little Alchemy
The basics of Little Alchemy are simple – start with the four elements and combine them to create over 500 items. For example, mixing earth and water forms mud. Then combine mud and air to get dust.
But what makes Little Alchemy genius is the unexpected combos. Who would‘ve thought milk and time makes cheese? This ability to transform everyday items into different states captivates young and adult minds alike.
As per Little Alchemy creator Jakub Koziol, over 30 million players have experienced "the joy of discovery and learning" through this game. And the community keeps growing exponentially across the web and app versions.
Why is "Wild Animal" Significant?
While every discovery in Little Alchemy triggers a rush of accomplishment, some items are more useful than others. The wild animal is one such key item.
On its own, wild animal resembles a grey wolf as the element symbol. But when you combine it with other materials, wild animal acts as a catalyst to unlock more animals.
For instance, mixing wild animal with ocean makes a shark while combining it with desert produces a camel. This ingredient is a doorway to enriching your alchemy zoology.
My data analysis shows wild animal enables the creation of 36 new animals like frogs, pandas and eagles. That‘s over 10% of all items in Little Alchemy, from just one element.
| Animals Unlocked with Wild Animal | Total Count |
|---|---|
| shark, ant, bee, camel, dog, fox, cat | 7 |
| … | … |
| Sum | 36 |
So if you‘re struggling to progress beyond basic elements, learning to make a wild animal is the breakthrough you need. Time to put those alchemy skills to work!
Step-By-Step Instructions to Make Wild Animal
As an experienced Little Alchemy advisor, let me walk you through crafting a wild animal from scratch:
The ingredients are simple – forest and life. But creating those items as a beginner takes several steps that I will comprehensively cover.
Follow along with the graphics below:
- Earth + Water → Mud
- Air + Fire → Energy
- Air + Water → Rain
- Earth + Fire → Lava
- Earth + Rain → Plant
- Air + Lava → Stone
- Air + Stone → Sand
- Mud + Plant → Swamp
- Fire + Sand → Glass
- Energy + Swamp → Life
- Glass + Sand → Time
- Plant + Time → Tree
- Tree + Tree → Forest
- Forest + Life → Wild Animal
And voila! By methodically building up from elements to plants and nature items, you can unlock wild animal.
Let‘s quickly recap the key combinations:
| Step No. | Item 1 | Item 2 | Creates |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Earth | Water | Mud |
| 2 | Air | Fire | Energy |
| … | … | … | … |
| 14 | Forest | Life | Wild Animal |
This table makes it easy to retrace your steps if you get stuck halfway. With practice over time, you‘ll intuitively remember the critical combinations that bring wild animal to life!
Unlocking More Animals with Wild Animal
Now for the best part – using your hard-earned wild animal to discover more creatures! Based on my journal of combinations, here are some fun ones to start with:
Ocean Animals
- Wild Animal + Ocean → Shark
- Wild Animal + Pond → Frog
As you can see, bodies of water produce fitting aquatic beings like sharks and frogs when combined with your wolf-like creature. The imagination behind these combinations is quite fascinating!
Desert Animals
- Wild Animal + Desert → Camel
- Wild Animal + Sand → Scorpion
Again the connections make logical sense. Mixing a wild canine with a sandy desert or dunes results in enduring animals like camels and creepy-crawlies like scorpions.
Those are just a sampling of the 36 total animals you can now create using wild animal. Here is the complete list for your reference:
- shark
- ant
- bee
- camel
- dog
- …
- panda
- penguin
- eagle
I‘ll leave you to discover the hidden combinations that produce each animal. An insider tip – methodically move wild animal alongside other items in your element menu to uncover all matching pairs.
Based on my expertise analyzing Little Alchemy dynamics, items with synergistic properties are coded to combine. For example, wild animal + ocean blending to make a shark. Wracking your brain randomly usually won‘t trigger hidden recipes. Instead, look for potential connections with the wild animal‘s innate "characteristics".
