Questioning the fundamental nature of knowledge and reality can send you down a rabbit hole or into an existential crisis. Luckily, dealing with Philosophy is easier in Little Alchemy 2 than in real life. So how do you make this thought-provoking concept?

It’s a little tricky at first. After all, what is philosophy, and how do we combine the four core elements to make such an abstract concept? Well, like everything in Little Alchemy 2, it starts by combing two elements to create another. In the case of philosophy, you’ll need to combine elements such as Story, human, Idea, chicken, or egg.

Unlocking Philosophy is helpful and aids in making other elements like Big and Small as well as Container, Death, and Motion.

So while we don’t know which came first (the chicken or the egg), we do know how to make Philosophy in Little Alchemy 2.

Here’s how to make Philosophy in Little Alchemy 2:

  • Chicken + Egg = Philosophy
  • Human + Idea = Philosophy
  • Human + Story = Philosophy

There are three ways to make philosophy, which all make sense practically when you think about it. First, combining Human and Idea or Story represents questioning knowledge and reality. At the same time, which came first, the chicken or egg, has been an age-old question.

However, Human, Story, and Idea aren’t the most straightforward elements. For example, making a human requires the primordial soup and volcano to create life, while Idea combines Human and a Light Bulb.

Luckily, Chicken and Egg are a lot easier to come across. This way is a complex yet quick recipe to make Philosophy in Little Alchemy 2. Here’s how:

Primordial Soup

  • Puddle + Water = Pond
  • Pond + Water = Lake
  • Lake + Water = Sea
  • Earth + Sea = Primordial Soup

Energy

  • Fire + Fire = Energy

Egg

  • Energy + Primordial Soup = Life
  • Fire + Life = Phoenix
  • Phoenix + Phoenix = Egg

Field

  • Earth + Fire = Lava
  • Air + lava = Stone
  • Fire + Stone = Metal
  • Earth + Metal = Plow
  • Earth + Plow = Field

House

  • Stone + Stone = Wall
  • Wall + Wall = House

  • earth + fire = lava
  • water + water = puddle
  • air + lava = stone
  • puddle + water = pond
  • pond + water = lake
  • mud + stone = clay
  • lake + water = sea
  • earth + sea = primordial soup
  • energy + primordial soup = life
  • clay + life = human

Idea

  • earth + water = mud
  • fire + fire = energy
  • earth + fire = lava
  • water + water = puddle
  • air + lava = stone
  • puddle + water = pond
  • pond + water = lake
  • mud + stone = clay
  • lake + water = sea
  • earth + sea = primordial soup
  • energy + primordial soup = life
  • clay + life = human
  • fire + human = firefighter
  • firefighter + firefighter = idea

Philosophy

Human + Idea = Philosophy

Lastly, using the same method to make a human, you can combine it with Story to make philosophy in Little Alchemy 2. Here’s how:

Human

  • earth + water = mud
  • fire + fire = energy
  • earth + fire = lava
  • water + water = puddle
  • air + lava = stone
  • puddle + water = pond
  • pond + water = lake
  • mud + stone = clay
  • lake + water = sea
  • earth + sea = primordial soup
  • energy + primordial soup = life
  • clay + life = human

Story

  • water + water = puddle
  • earth + earth = land
  • fire + fire = energy
  • earth + water = mud
  • earth + fire = lava
  • puddle + water = pond
  • earth + land = continent
  • air + lava = stone
  • pond + water = lake
  • continent + continent = planet
  • lake + water = sea
  • mud + stone = clay
  • air + planet = atmosphere
  • earth + sea = primordial soup
  • atmosphere + water = cloud
  • energy + primordial soup = life
  • cloud + energy = lightning
  • clay + life = human
  • human + lightning = hero
  • hero + human = story

Philosophy

Human + Story = Philosophy
