Little Alchemy 2 · river | Compare
Choose a variant below. Closely related recipes, conditions or opening branches are collected here so you can compare them without moving between almost identical pages.
The version and limits of the original source apply to every entry. Quantities and requirements belong to the named variant; do not add alternative recipes or opening lines together.
These options share a planning task. Their differences stay visible in the individual rows and calculators.
For Little Alchemy 2, not the original Little Alchemy. Recipes requiring unlisted Myths and Monsters ingredients are excluded. This is a community-data guide, not an in-game test or a guarantee of every current combination.
Using this reference
To make river, scan the route for ingredients you have already discovered. You can start from those instead of repeating every earlier step. Keep the checklist as a record of what you have made during this attempt; it does not read your saved game.
The alternative pairs are separate ways to reach the same result. Choose the one closest to your current collection. A route with fewer listed steps is not always the shortest route from your own discoveries, and a Time requirement needs to be checked before attempting a pair that uses it.
