Molecule - a chemical challenge

Molecule - a chemical challenge: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chemistry was one of those subjects that I personally found boring when I was at school. To this day, I still don’t understand why a student who was studying commerce needed to have an idea about chemistry! The only explanation that I can think of, is that the school was trying to turn its students into some sort of alchemists, turning rocks into gold and making money for the school! If only they were able to teach chemistry in a fun way, just like in Molecule – a chemical challenge! Molecule – a chemical challenge is a puzzle game where you have to assemble a group of atoms to create a molecule in the minimum number of moves within a confined space. The first couple of puzzles are pretty much a small tutorial to show you how to play the game. There are 40 levels to clear in Molecule – a chemical challenge. Each molecule that you have to assemble varies in complexity from between 2 and 19 atoms, depending of the level. Each level will have a specific enclosed space. Some will have corridors or occupied square blocks within them. As mentioned, your goal is to reconstruct the molecule within the minimum number of moves. The first time you manage to rebuild on each of the stages, you’ll be rewarded with a golden star. Now comes the part that I really like! Let’s say that you have reassembled the molecule in 22 moves on your first try. To receive three golden stars, you must do it again in the same number or fewer moves than on your first attempt. To be honest, it is amazing to realise that what you managed to achieve only few minutes prior is now somehow lost somewhere within the compartments of your brain (don’t despair ladies and gents, you’ll get used to it when you hit a certain age!) Jokes aside, you really have to concentrate on every move you make and visualise them so that you can reproduce them on your second try - great stuff! The other thing I like about the game is that at the end of each level, it will tell you what the molecule is used for, which is a great learning add-on in my opinion. The gameplay is pretty easy as you have to select each of the atoms with your mouse and flick it either left, right, up or down. The trick is to find the right location within the confined space to replicate the molecule. There a couple of variations in the latest levels, where you have to get through a specific rotating square in order to change the shape of their forms. The other is to move a molecule to a square which has a trigger that makes a block disappear as long as your molecule stays on it. Graphically, it is average, but the game runs well. I really like the music in the intro but it would have been great to have more than track one on a loop. I do think the game needs more content (levels), but it’s really fun to play! Positives: ~~~~~~~ + 40 levels to clear + Fun and challenging + Educational information on what the molecules represent + Achievements Negatives: ~~~~~~~~ - Needs more content (levels) - No trading cards as yet What a fun and challenging puzzle game! Put on your chemistry hat and figure out Molecule – a chemical challenge out! 6/10 Key provided by developer/publisher for review purposes. Any opinions expressed are entirely my own!

Rating: 4 out of 10 Molecule is based on Atomix (a DOS game from 1990). There are also some free clones like Atomiks. I don't know if the puzzles of this version differ from Atomix and the free clones, but this version seems to have a few more levels, no time limit and also some nicer visuals. The quality of the puzzles is questionable, since I beat the world record even of later puzzles on my first try (and I am no puzzle expert). Some more detailed statistics to compare own results as in Zachtronics games would have been nice. Pros: + not as complicated as it looks, only some difficult to solve with few steps Cons: - short (3 hours to solve all levels without hints) - many levels too easy (many world records on first try) - mixed diffulty curve (even some later puzzles are very easy) - music (I disabled it since it is not my cup of coffee)

A simple puzzle game about molecules. I like it

Molecule is a simple tablet puzzle game where you slide elements around a little maze to complete compounds. The whole thing could be done in flash. You can play games like this on mobile or in a web browser for free. How then could I recommend someone pays for this?

Interesting and intriguing puzzler. Definitely challenging. I applaud the developer for prompt and quick fixes to any issues, and the recent critical bug I noticed looks to have been completely fixed. So I am giving this brainteaser a thumbs up again.

We're moving atoms to make adjusted molecules. And when it's done game shows some fact about this material. There's no much fun but overall it's an acceptable puzzle to taking some time. For example, if you're waiting someone or you can't play in other kind of games on your work. Graphics is simple but not disgusting. Music is not intrusive.

Мы двигаем атомы, чтобы создать требуемые молекулы. И когда уровень закончен, показывается небольшой факт о этом веществе. Не очень весело, однако это приемлемая игра, чтобы занять немного времени. Например, когда вы кого-то ожидаете или не можете играть в другие типы игр на работе. Графика проста, но не вызывает отвращения. Музыка не назойлива.

This game is more or less a clone of the ancient puzzle game Atomix. Not the puzzles themselves, just the mechanics. The puzzles, at least at the beginning, are easier than in the original game. While the original had a time limit for each level, this version counts moves instead, that is a welcome change and more fitting for a puzzle game. This game is a blurry eyesore when you start it. This is due to the game rendering in 720p and then upscaling. There are no resolution options in the game itself and the configuration dialog at startup is hidden. It is a Unity engine game, so you can force that dialog by holding shift when launching, there you can fix the resolution. The game looks much sharper after that, rendering in the native resolution should have been the default. The only music in the game is the one track that plays in the trailer, it doesn't fit the game and is looping constantly. The game has clearly been made for mobile devices, the port to PC seems to have been done without putting actual effort in. The UI is made for touch controls, at least controlling with the mouse is functional. The most annoying part so far is that the achievements for each level are for matching or beating the world record. But the game can't fetch a list with world records, so the initial "record" for each level is -1 moves. This then gets overwritten with your move count from your first successful solve. You have to beat each level twice (while matching or beating your previous move count) to get the achievement. So instead of solve level, solve next level, solve next level, you have solve level and remember the steps, do it all over again, solve next level and remember the steps, do it all over again. This hurts the puzzling experience a lot. Could have been worse (remaining at unobtainable -1 moves or having a working leaderboard with unbeatable cheated records), but could and should have been a lot better. If the developer is monitoring reviews, I would advice initializing the local records with developer scores that can be matched or beaten on the first solve. I would have liked to recommend this game since I liked the original, but I really can't for now. The blurry graphics can be solved manually, so that's bad but no show-stopper. Music can be turned off, but more and better tracks would certainly have improved the experience. The annoying handling of achievements, that forces you to solve each level twice, is the biggest flaw and prevents the recommendation.
