Description

Compounded is a game where you take on the role of a lab manager, competing to build chemical compounds through clever management of elements and a bit of social play. With 2 to 5 players, you'll need to navigate the lab, gathering elements and trading with your fellow scientists to complete compounds before they're completed by others or destroyed in an explosion. Some compounds are flammable and will become more volatile over time, adding an element of press-your-luck tension to the game. As you play, you'll need to strike a balance between strategic planning and negotiation with your fellow lab mates. Trading elements, tools, and even favors can be key to success, and the most successful scientists will be those who can navigate these social interactions with ease. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of 30 to 90 minutes, Compounded is a fun and engaging game that's perfect for a night in with friends.
