Many years ago, I bought a game called 'Elixir', in which the players represent wizards trying to obtain the ingredients for the Elixir of Life.
Unfortunately, I've lost the rules, and I can't find any reference to the game or its manufacturers on the Internet.
The main thing I need to know is the table that tells you the result of an attempt to brew a potion, based on the value of gems in the mix, and the die roll you throw.

The table is at the bottom of page 2. When brewing, add the cost of your gem(s) to the dice roll. On a 3 or less, the brewing fails and you lose the ingredients. On a 4 or 5, nothing happens but you can attempt to brew again on your next turn. Finally, on a 6+, the potion is successfully brewed.
