Chemistower combines tower defense with chemistry mechanics: you build defensive towers by purchasing and combining atoms into compounds, each with distinct properties and synergies based on real chemical reactions. The core loop rewards experimentation as you discover which molecular combinations work best against antimatter waves, supported by a research system that unlocks new elements and upgrades. It's ideal for players seeking a fresh take on tower defense who enjoy strategic depth and don't mind learning which chemical interactions actually matter.

A refreshing twist to TD games. Once you understand the concept, it becomes very addictive, very fast. And a ton to unlock as well. Pretty much a no brainer buy at this price.
Banger game I love the ability to combine atoms to create different chemicals, the different attributes of all the elements and molecules are super ineresting. I also love the combo potential between different towers, they relate to irl chemical reactions so it's super interesting to see what they'll do. Overall great game and you should try it. Add Tungsten. Science!
This game is really cool in its difference from other tower defenses, it's compound system provides a very interesting tower defense experience as well as stuff like methane requiring a dioxigen to be near it to work well. The game has alot of interactions like that. it also has a really nice research mechanic.
HOWEVER my one big problem with this game
is that half the upgrades hinder you. for example radiation gives a chance some of your towers will just stop working, and you have to tap them again to get them working again. It makes no sense to buy this upgrade, and similarly buying more elements just makes it harder to get the ones you want i think maybe a upgrade giving 1 more element to the shop gui could be really nice.
Hello all, I recently began work on Chemistower again and started developing the game for android. Right now I have an early build ready for testing, and I'm looking for people to help out. If you have an android phone and would like to contribute, send an email to Wunoumenalstudio@gmail.com with something like 'chemistower playtest' in the subject line. Please use whatever email is associated with your google / play store account because I need to add your email to a list for you to join the test. I'll reply to your email with more info and a confirmation once you're added to the playtest. I'll also send a free steam key (for desktop version) for the first 12 people who sign up to playtest! I've already done a few balance updates, quality of life changes, and expanded the research tree a bit which will all launch on the desktop version once I officially release the mobile version. Hopefully the launch of the mobile version can lead to content updates for both desktop and mobile versions of Chemistower! I'll send further updates and patch notes for the ongoing changes within the next few weeks.
-Added a toggle option within the research menu for radiation on atoms, the radiation feature can now be optionally disabled even after unlock. -Increased pick up radius on gold drops from Au tower.
