You can feel the chemistry with this game! Explore and research the periodic table as you compete with other players to research elements and complete goals. The board is a large, colorful periodic table; players move by spending or gaining energy to activate periodic trends, each of which allows you to move in a different manner. Whatever element you land on can be "researched, helping you complete the shared goal cards. Collect goal cards, lab tokens, and more to accumulate points; player with the most points wins! This game is well-constructed and as cute as a periodic table game could possibly be with tiny microscope and flask pieces for each player. 2-5 players, game time 40-60 minutes. ~ Megan
Publisher's Description of Periodic: A Game of the Elements
Periodic: A Game of The Elements is a strategy board game designed around the periodic table of elements, as well as some of the most fundamental principles in chemistry that can be derived from the structure and function of the periodic table.
Players maneuver across the periodic table to collect elements to score Goal Cards, and land on element groups to score points. Players either pay energy to use multiple periodic trends to move across the table, or select just one trend and collect all the energy payed to that trend!
