## Description

Covalence is a cooperative, deduction-based card Game modeled accurately around the basics of organic CHEMISTRY! Players must work together to build a number of organic molecules. But the challenge is, they have a limited amount of information and a limited number of clues.the builders then attempt to deduce the structure of their molecule by bonding their elements in various arrangements until they believe their molecule matches the correct molecular Structure.covalence is great for the Science classroom or a Game night with family and friends. Covalence encourages creative yet precise communication and collaboration and is great for groups that enjoy puzzle-style deduction games. All the concepts covered in covalence are concepts that would be introduced in a basic High School Level chemistry course. And it does so in a way that is fun and intuitive for everyone!covalence was created by a Professor of Game design who is also a chemical engineer and chemistry teacher!genius games is a stem-centered publishing Company that creates high-quality tabletop games and children's books. We demystify intimidating concepts in the sciences through the thrill of play. We engage players in a lifelong process of Inquiry by rewarding curiosity with fun.ages: 8+ players: 2 - 4+ time: 20 - 40 minsscience concepts covered in covalence:covalent bonding, single bonds, double bonds, elements, atoms, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, chemical nomenclature, stereochemistry, Organic CHEMISTRY

Review: Impressed with Genius Games - We are a geeky family, but we are not heavy gamers. We do enjoy family games and other not overly heavy board games. We also homeschool our children. I say this to give you a little context for this review. I am a sucker for cooperative games. So I decided Covalence would be a great fit for our family. I wasn't wrong. The instructions could use a little tweaking to make them more clear. But overall this isn't a super complicated game. It has a fun logic game feel to it. While the theme is very educational, I think the game is fun and the learning is a bit sneaky (meaning kids and adults will learn without even realizing because they are having fun.) The quality is also nice. In short, we will be adding many more Genius games to our collection. *Update* we now own Subatomic, Periodic, Cytosis, Covalence, Ion, and Peptide. We have not been disappointed. In fact we plan to continue adding most Genius Games to our collection.

This is a fun game for the kids right about the time they are taking junior high science and it will still be vastly useful through college chemistry courses. An entertaining and educational game.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Cooperative Game
*by W***I on December 29, 2016*

Fun family game. I like that it is a cooperative effort rather than playing against each other. You don't have to know chemistry. One suggestion for the game maker- put the Level rules on a card that the players can have in front of them during the game. I mean the rules about Easy level molecules will only be CCC, or CCN or CCO, and Hard level molecules will be... whatever the rules are - I cannot remember. But it is essential information that they keep buried in the middle of the instruction book - not in plain view to the players. That's my only suggestion. It is a good game of problem solving as a group, and you can choose what level of difficulty to play. Thumbs up.
