About the Game

OVERVIEW 🔎

Chemical Combat is an action-packed, chemistry-themed roguelike in which choosing the right combination of chemicals is crucial. Armed with a diverse array of elements, you'll need to concoct potions to trigger a variety of deadly reactions in order to protect yourself from the numerous mythical monsters on the loose.

Set following a containment breach in a highly dangerous research facility, you'll battle your way through a maze of interconnected rooms, splashing enemies with explosive elixirs, solving various puzzles and minigames, and collecting coins to upgrade your equipment. Venture progressively deeper and tackle ever-tougher enemies with up to 36 unique upgrades, refining your tactics along the way.

ALCHEMY 🧪

With 16 elements to choose from and 45 unique reactions, there are numerous strategies you can adopt: from a deadly damage over time build to one focused on powerful explosions. Different enemies have different weaknesses, so plan accordingly...

DUNGEONS 🗺️

With four unique biomes - monsters, magic, robots, and hell - and procedurally generated dungeons, each expedition will present you with a similar but distinct experience. Take on 16 different enemies, each with different mechanics and attacks, as well as 7 randomised minigames/puzzles for varied gameplay.

UPGRADES ✨

Choose from the 36 upgrades available in the skill tree to find your optimal playstyle, whether it be aggressive, defensive, or utility-focused. Spend your hard-earned coins in any of the four quadrants - reaction, experimentation, exploration, and survivability - or on unlocking new elements in the quarry.
