I really liked the "alchemy-ish" theming, and also learning about all the element combinations (I did not read until after I played the game). After I learned what they all did it got a bit frustrating not finding the elements I was looking for (until I found a strategy that used them all). If the game was developed further into something fuller and gave me a reason to want to see a next level (or even novel enemies), I could see playing a lot more of this.
