Little Alchemist: Remastered

Resolves a connectivity issue that prevented retries for Internet connection during startup.

We've got some upcoming changes in this release that won't take effect immediately. Keep reading to find out what's in store for you!

Bug Fixes:

Heroics
- Players should now find that their first match after the tutorial completes correctly.

Feature Updates:
Note - The following feature updates will be rolled out after the new version is released to all players. Keep an eye out for these updates!

Arena Defensive Deck Scoring
In this Release, we've updated the new Arena Defensive Deck to include scoring for Defensive wins. This feature will go live after the next Arena season starts. Keep in mind that there's a daily cap on how many Stars each player can earn in this way.

The stars accumulated from your Defensive Deck will contribute to both your leaderboard standing and overall star count.

Please Note:  The initial values for this feature are intentionally set low. We’ll keep a close eye on this and make any necessary adjustments along the way as needed.

The intent for this change is that players will receive extra points for participating in the Arena, particularly rewarding players who actively engage with their Defensive Deck.  Winning matches in the Arena will always be the largest source of Arena Stars

Dust Costs
We've lowered the Dust costs to Upgrade Bronze Final Form and Combo Cards, Silver Final Form and Combo Cards, and Gold Final Form cards to make Fusion more accessible for new players. Earned Dust for recycling upgraded versions of these cards has also been adjusted.

In this quick update, we have a potential fix for the slowdown that a few users encountered. This update should improve the app's framerate, smoothness, and animation responsiveness.

Hey Alchemists!

We're thrilled to bring you a bite-sized update today!

What's New:

- Adventure energy now has a delightful twist: Energy overfills beyond the maximum when leveling up or buying recharges! Gone is trying to time Energy usage just right!
- Say goodbye to those pesky issues with deck counts! We've squashed bugs that caused 3 and 4-digit numbers to display incorrectly in the deck selector.
- Devil card's base stats have received a boost, now standing at 10/7 instead of the previous 7/7.

• Resolved a core issue with in-game event tracking

- Exiting the game prematurely will no longer result in players losing their portal event progress

This hotfix addresses a critical issue that enabled players to manipulate the respawn mechanism of the Goblin, allowing for unintended multiple respawns. Our development team has worked diligently to rectify this anomaly and ensure the integrity of the gameplay experience.

We want to remind our players that using exploits can lead to serious consequences, including termination of your account. Let's keep the game fun and fair for everyone!
