About This Game

An abstract lateral-thinking puzzle game


In each level the aim is to build units of tricone within cell compartments. Change the cell structure for example by breaking open compartment walls. Once resources become available you can use catalysts to create compounds you need: each compound has a unique ability. As you progress, new resource, catalyst and compound types emerge within puzzles that increasingly challenge your lateral thinking.
