3D Game Alchemy is a book written by Steve Benner and published by Sams Publishing in 1996. It is considered to be a second edition of Tricks of the Doom Gurus, to which it is substantially similar.
The book was repackaged and sold boxed with the compilation Level Master II, sometimes known as Instant Doom Levels. That edition included a full PDF e-book of Tricks of the Doom Gurus on its disc, but not 3D Game Alchemy.
