How to Play Chain Reaction & Core Mechanics
Plant a single Starter Bomb to ignite massive domino explosions across Nova Orbs, 4-way Prism Core lasers, Cluster Splits, Vortex Cores, and 2-hit Supernova Mega-Drums! Designed natively for modern HTML5 Canvas and WebGL browsers, Chain Reaction places you straight into precision optics, blast-radius & trajectory logic puzzle gameplay where calculating reflection angles, splitter paths, or chain-detonation radii so a minimal number of moves clears or powers every target on the stage. Every visual cue, hitbox boundary, and input response is tuned for 60 frames per second so outcomes depend strictly on player timing and spatial awareness rather than randomness.
Working backward from the final receiver or densest target intersection turns complex multi-bounce boards into straightforward step-by-step geometry. Whether you are pushing past the opening 800 pts benchmark within a 45-second par window or grinding deep into Tier-3+ endless scaling, every run tracks multiplier efficiency alongside your raw score.
On desktop PCs, laptops, and Chromebooks, Chain Reaction maps cleanly to Hover / Drag to preview Blast Ring · Click / Release to plant Starter Bomb, while smartphones and tablets automatically activate direct touch tap, drag, swipe, or adaptive on-screen controls. Chain Reaction is suitable for all ages, offering pure skill-driven puzzle progression with zero lootboxes, zero energy timers, and zero paid microtransactions.

Pro Tips & High-Score Strategies for Chain Reaction
Trace Backward From Target Receivers First
Identify which mirror, bank wall, or blast zone is the only valid path into the final goal (Hover / Drag to preview Blast Ring · Click / Release to plant Starter Bomb), locking the end of the chain before solving the start.
Aim at Trajectory Intersections in Moving Clusters
Lead moving targets by half a second so your shot or starter detonation catches two crossing paths simultaneously, multiplying chain reach.
Use Orb Swap or Splitter Branches to Clear Blockers Early
Removing ceiling anchors or routing secondary laser branches first opens clean sightlines without wasting extra moves.
Chase Fewest-Move Efficiency for Top Stage Scores
Clearing stages with spare shots or minimal rotations awards bonus efficiency points toward your personal and global Chain Reaction record.
