About Compounds

Compounds is a visual chemistry game. Each round stages the element tiles of a familiar substance, with their formula subscripts, leading to a hidden product. You read the elements and deduce which compound they form, then the reveal shows the answer and explains why those elements make it.

What it trains. You will read chemical formulas at a glance and connect them to everyday materials like water (H₂O), steel (iron with carbon), and quartz (SiO₂). Every round carries a short, sourced note, so you learn the chemistry behind the answer, not just the label.
