Players
the game and could either end it or let the other
Can be played by 2-3 people.
The age varies from seven year olds to even
adults!
But this focuses more on elementary students to
have a small gist on what's to come in their high
school Chemistry classes.
This also encourages the children to have a
greater interest in chemistry and that science is
fun!!
The Board
The game is designed to resemble a 5 step
reaction.
Each "step" contains ten blocks that starts from
the lowest point of the hill-like path up to the next
lowest point of the next path
It consists of 50 blocks which all players need to
pass through to reach the end point - the end of
the 5th step.
There are two special blocks found in each step -
they are called "Transition State" and
"Intermediate".
Transition State, located at the top with a triangle
shaped block, is a point wherein the players are
unaffected any status effects of other cards as
long as they stay on that block.
Intermediate, on the other hand, is located at the
bottom with the same shape as the Transition
State. It doubles the effect all status effects
applied to a player who are in the intermediate.
However, if the turn player is the player on the
intermediate, he/she cannot double the effects
applied to self.
The Game
It can be played in two different modes,
exothermic and endothermic (will be discussed
later).
To start a game for both modes, the players
involved can be as creative (or random) as
possible to determine which goes first.
The turn player must roll the dice first before
using and activating cards which would follow
after the dice roll.
Endothermic Mode
In this mode, each player will have seven (7)
cards in their hand.
After a turn player roll the dice, they have the
option to either end their turn right away or
activate a card.
If they chose to activate a card, the turn player can
only activate one card during their turn.
However, an exemption to the rule prior to this is
when an opponent activates a "Hands Off!"
against you. If they activated a "Hands Off!"
against your card to try to negate it, you may only
use the "Hands Off!" card to negate the attempted
negation by your opponent. The turn player may
not use other cards other than "Hands Off!" if an
opponent tried to negate the effect.
At the end of each player's turn, all players would
draw cards until they have 7 in hand again.
The turn player has the priority to draw the cards
first at the end of the turn.
After the turn ends, the next player would then
roll the dice.
When someone reaches the end point, they win
two players (if there are three) compete for the
second place.
Exothermic Mode
In this game mode, all cards will be distributed
equally among the players and the board would be
turned such that the base is black in color.
They would still drop one card per turn though,
but it’s a matter of decision making as other
players could negate the activation of the card.
Same ruling applies when a “Hands-Off!” card is
played.
The game ends when one player reaches the end
point, or when there are no more cards that all
players control.
In the case of the latter end game condition, the
nearest player to the end point wins the game.
Cards
Cards are known as the backbone of this game. It
makes it unique to other board games because this
game is very situational yet simple - The cards
involved can only be activated after a dice roll.
Card effects may be activated to benefit self or
harm other player(s), and they can also outplay
other opponents! Beware though, as playing cards
can be negated as well so it would not go in your
way all the time. Play with your heart's content
There are a total of forty (40) cards in the deck.
The following are the list of cards, its effect/s, and
the total amount of it in the deck.
Catalyst
Choose a player to target and apply the effect of
"Catalyst". There can only be one "Catalyst"
active for every player.
When this card is activated: the player would
move a number of blocks equal to double the
result of the dice roll. Cannot be negated nor
removed by other card effects, except "Inhibitor!".
Heat
Target one player (either you or your opponent):
Move the targeted player onto the next block to
the right.
Cool
Target one player (either you or your opponent):
Move the targeted player onto the next block to
the left.
Go to the nearest Transition State. You can only
use this effect once per turn.
Equilibrium
Switch places with another player. Cannot be used
if any player involved is at the Transition State.
Entropy, Enthalpy, Gibb’s Free Energy
Collect all three cards for a spontaneous effect
(moves three more steps every turn and it cannot
be negated after applying.)
Reverse
Reverses a player’s reaction. Now they move the
other way until this effect is removed.

Hands off!

Can only be used when an opponent activates a

card(s): Negate the activation. (Can be used to
negate "Hands off".) This card doesn't negate the
effect of "Catalyst". This card can remove
“Reverse” status.
Inhibitor!

Slow them down! Prevents a player to roll a die.

Can only be removed by catalyst.

Isolate!
Target one opponent. When you do, that opponent
loses their next turn.
