unlabelledView post →As a chemistry teacher, I love @draknek.bsky.social's Sokobond! I have fond memories of playing it during my first semester of college as a chemistry major.

unlabelledView post →94. Sokobond Another fun little sokoban game, I liked it.
unlabelledView post →I picked up the Draknek humble bundle recently and spent the week playing through Sokobond. Instead of pushing blocks to parts of the map you are combining atoms into a molecule. They introduce some other mechanics like breaking bonds, double/triple bonds, and rotating. There were a few puzzles I got stuck on and a few I figured out by accident just by moving around. You have to beat every puzzle to beat the game and then you unlock some bonus puzzles. Neat little game if you want some no…
