Shell game.
Sokobond is a puzzle game about making chemical compounds that requires “no chemistry knowledge” to play. I think that’s downright cowardly, but I suppose I understand the commercial impulse behind not shutting out 98% of the world’s population from buying your game.
It’s lovely, minimalist thing from indie developers Alan Hazelden and Harry Lee, puzzle specialists who were responsible for These Robotic Hearts of Mine and Stickets, respectively. Sokobond released for desktops yesterday on Steam, but its creators say that iOS & Android versions are forthcoming.
The last time we experimented with a chemistry-centric game, it turned out to be a bit of a dud. I figure we’re due for a win. Watch the trailer below.
