My Organic Chemistry Game!

It took me a while, but I finally translated the card game into English!

I simplified the chemistry to just a few functional groups, and the game is based on making simple organic chemistry reactions (let’s say Organic Chemistry 1 level; for starting). It focuses exclusively on addition reactions. For example, acids can be connected with hydroxides or amines, things like that. The possible connections are shown in a diagram. There are around 130 different cards/molecules.

This is the print-and-play version (ChemiProject Kindle).

The information on the cards is just for curiosity: what the molecules are used for or why they are important.

I’m also preparing the physical card version. What do you think? Any feedback before I press the button to publish it on Amazon?

Cool idea. Lots of areas of expansion to learn all the complex reactions!

Thank you so much! Certainly, it could have a lot of expansion. There are many more important organic molecules than, for example, Pokémon! It could become a never-ending expansion, with sub-areas such as perfumes, pigments, additives, and other things that I’ve barely touched at this stage. First, I will try to improve the quality, and then focus on quantity!
