## Description

Product Description Periodic: A Game of the Elements is a strategy board game designed around the structure and function of the periodic table of elements, as well as some of the most basic principles in chemistry! In Periodic, activate periodic trends (such as "decrease atomic mass" or increase atomize) to strategically operate across the periodic table, detecting elements to score points and earn awards (which allow you to take more powerful turns in the future). you also need to match to detect elements as you finish your turns in specific families of elements, such as noble gases or transition metals. This allows you to move up the academic performance track in a race against other players for the limited slots and additional points at the end of the court. Directions In Periodic, players strategically maneuver across the periodic table by activating periodic trends to discover elements and score points. They must also end their turns in specific families of elements to move up the Academic Achievement Track. The game is designed to teach chemistry concepts using the periodic table and improve understanding of related principles and properties.

Review: Learn, play and have fun - My 9 year old boy loves to play this and he is a big fan of the periodic table. You need to play it two times to get the game more easily going. Makes even more fun to play with 3. Enjoy!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fun with chemistry!
*by S***Y on 14 January 2020*

Great fun way to help kids get to grips with the periodic table

### ⭐⭐ Overall complicated!
*by E***A on 11 November 2022*

We homeschool and love educational games, but just reading through the rules and figuring the game out took us over an hour! Genius games have lots of good ideas, beautifully illustrated but the fun factor is really low and complication too high. Wish I hadn't bought it unfortunately.
