Sure, SpaceChem is just pseudo-science, but it does capture that mystique of toying with nature's fundamental ingredients.

If you love puzzle games and almost impossible challenges, probably SpaceChem is the best you can find. If headaches and sleep time cuts don't scare you, probably SpaceChem is still the best you can find. Do you also love chemistry? Take that 20 bucks and go buy it immediately!

SpaceChem is an intelligent and addictive puzzler with a high difficulty level but some of the most enjoyable and satisfying puzzles I've ever experienced. This is a modern classic in the puzzle genre.

Brain-achingly clever and hypnotically fascinating, SpaceChem is a must for any puzzle aficionado or anyone with a passing interest in programming.

The triumph of SpaceChem is that overcoming these situations is more a case of inventing a solution than discovering one - creating a technique on your own terms that, once learned, you find yourself reusing in later stages.

Due to its extreme complexity, SpaceChem will never be a title for everyone. Too deep and articulate for casual players, it will be appreciated only by those who are willing to engage themselves with the deep game mechanics Nevertheless Spece chem is no doubt one of the most brilliant puzzle game in the history of videogames.

As much mental workout as excellent puzzle game, SpaceChem challenges and entertains, plus it has an engaging story.

What I enjoy the most is the fact that there is no right way to come up with a solution. If it works, you win.

Chemistry never was that entertaining.

OCD-fuelling obsession for some, brain-melting difficulty for others. Choose, and perish.

LEVEL (Czech Republic) March 7, 2011
An excellent puzzle game that can convert the suffering from hours of chemistry at high school to an entertaining experience.

If you like those kind of games, it's probably the best of the last 25 years. It's a game of extremes, the graphics are simply annoying, but it can keep you playing one level for a whole day.
