App Profile: Bond Breaker Classroom Edition

Pit yourself against atomic physics in Bond Breaker, a new puzzle game based on real nano-scale science.

This latest version was built with learning in mind, with:
-Levels organized around teaching standards
-Videos to explain the science underlying the game
-Quizzes to help you check your progress
-Fun new scientist characters that will lead you on your way.

You start this game in the smallest way possible - as a single proton, without even a single atom to call your own. But with a little luck, and a lot of physical chemistry, you'll grow into an atoms, smash together into molecules, or break apart again using lasers and heat.

Created by TestTubeGames and scientists at the CaSTL research center at UC Irvine, this is truly the most accurate physics engine to date. After all, what other game is correct down to the atomic level? When you make and break molecular bonds, you’ll encounter real forces and real physics.

This isn’t just simple stuff, either! You'll learn about...

The forces that bind molecules together

How lasers can excite atoms

Why water sticks together into drops

What happens when you heat something up

And much, much more.

Simply put, this is the most fun you can have without buying your own Scanning Tunneling Microscope!
