Description
A strategy game for 2 to 8 players.
The objective of Chain Reaction is to take control of the board by eliminating your opponents' orbs.
Players take it in turns to place their orbs in a cell. Once a cell has reached critical mass the orbs explode into the surrounding cells adding an extra orb and claiming the cell for the player. A player may only place their orbs in a blank cell or a cell that contains orbs of their own colour. As soon as a player looses all their orbs they are out of the game.
Game features both HD modes for larger (Pad) screens and the regular mode for all devices.
Each player can customise the colour & sounds of their orbs. A player can also turn tactile feedback (vibration) on and off.
I hope you have as much fun playing this as I have coding it.

I would love to suggest a new Game mode I like to call Line of Sight. Players cannot see each other's orbs unless it's within their range. Orbs will now emit photons and lights up surrounding cells, the more excited the orbs, the brighter it is and lights up more cells. If you need anything to clarify, just let me know :)

I like this game it's simple and the best game, but there is one issue that I do not like when you play online multiplayer player only 2 players can play if there are more player options to join the same room then this game would be the best simple game for free time. It would be the game that offline and online best time pass game with friends ☺️☺️.

Great recent update, we can play alone now. The touch reaction glitch is also fixed. The themes are also nice. The local multiplayer and everything else is totally awesome. This feels like a chess game.

Hey, the online multiplayer player mode is good, but sometimes the opponent cannot place orbs when top corners part is triggered, it says "can't place there" then the game is stuck even if we play a new game the same thing happens when top corners are triggered. Please solve this issue. I am using an android

The "Play vs CPU" is pretty dumb. I played hard level for like 4 times and won all. While just paying attention on staying alive and not attacking (won first 3 times, last game - I played attacking (it took me less than 2 minutes to win the game. You guys got to program a better strategy for the CPU I guess. Reach out if you want my strategy.

Multiplayer in different devices is not working. Neither nearby device is working, neither online is working
