What makes a good puzzle game? Usually clear rules that never change unfairly, hints or undo options and a gentle but real difficulty curve — and Chain reaction has each of them in some measure. The skills it leans on are planning and planning; both improve noticeably after a few sessions.
How to play Chain reaction
- Start by clicking the big play button. Chain reaction loads inside the frame; give it a moment, especially on a slow connection.
- Follow the on-screen prompts. The developer describes the controls like this: Create a zone that absorb other molecules when they come into contact
- Read the whole level before your first move. Identify the goal, then look for the forced moves that must happen regardless.
- Use the full-screen button under the frame for the best view, and keep an eye on the score, timer or health display so you know what the game is asking of you.
Controls
The controls in Chain reaction are straightforward once you have seen them written down:

Tips and tricks
- Read the whole board before your first move. In most puzzle games the first move is the most important one, and it deserves ten seconds of looking.
- Work backwards from the goal. Ask what the final state has to look like, then ask what the state before that must be.
- Play with sound on if the game has it; audio cues often confirm a correct move before the animation finishes.
- If you are stuck for more than a couple of minutes, step away and come back. Puzzle solutions often arrive when you stop forcing them.
- Because this is a Coloring game, zoom in for the small areas.
