Fusion

A slide-and-fuse puzzle for your XENEON EDGE. Swipe atoms together, fuse them into heavier elements and see how far up the periodic table you can climb.

How to play: swipe on the board, or tap near one of its edges, and every atom slides as far as it can that way. Two matching atoms that meet fuse into the next element: two Hydrogen make Helium, two Helium make Lithium, and so on. An atom can fuse only once per move, and every fusion scores points, more for heavier elements. After every move that changes the board a new atom appears, usually Hydrogen and sometimes Helium. The further you get, the more the game mixes in: Lithium starts to appear once element 8, Oxygen, is on the board, and Beryllium once element 11, Sodium, is, though Hydrogen and Helium stay by far the most common. The game ends when the board is full and nothing can fuse.

Now and then a neutron appears, the outlined n tile. Slide it into any atom and that atom jumps up one element, no match needed, so save it for the atom that needs it most.

You can reach elements 1 to 36, from Hydrogen to Krypton. Krypton is the end of the line and won't fuse any further.

The board fills a Medium slot, five atoms wide and four tall, and every tile shows its element's symbol, atomic number and name. Your game and best score are saved, so you can swipe to another screen and carry on where you left off. New starts over, and takes a second tap if a game is under way, so a stray touch can't wipe your progress.

Part of a matching set! Hardware Monitor, Hardware Monitor Dials, Weather and Radar, Calendar, Clock, Calculator, Battery, Now Playing, FPS, Fan Monitor, Power Cost, GIF Frame, Game Launcher, RSS Reader, Audio Control, Stocks, Countdown Timer, Game Deals, UniFi Monitor and App Launcher use the same themes, palettes and edges, so put Fusion next to a Large Hardware Monitor to make one seamless dashboard.
