    Looking at our related interests, which I might share with some members of the RACI, I'd like to pose the following question: what's your favourite card or board game that somehow has chemistry involved in its theme?

    Terraforming Mars by FryxGames is certainly one of the regular board games I play in which STEM features quite heavily in its mechanics and, as gameplay involves raising the O2 levels and liberating liquid water on the Martian surface, chemistry plays a part.

    The Manhattan Project and the subsequent The Manhattan Project: Energy Empire also tick a few chemistry-related boxes-the latter is a turn-limited game that sees you playing the role of a country balancing development of power plants with environmental damage.

    Although I have never played it, one could argue that Potion Explosion's alchemical theme might appeal to some adventurous synthetic chemists.

    PS—any RACI members interested in playing board games online, should consider joining Board Game Arena and feel free to reach out to me (ddturnerphd)
