Science & Nursing Games

Constellations

Constellations: The Game of Stargazing and the Night Sky is a card-based game that gives 2-4 players the chance to explore our amazing night sky, the science and mythology behind stars and constellations, and have fun competing as they piece together the constellations in the night sky as they collect the correct star cards. Based on real science and constellations you can recognize in your own sky.

Cytosis

Cytosis: A Cell Biology Game transports players inside a human cell and puts them in control! In this biologically accurate worker placement game, players take turns directing the cellular Acton, like placing workers on available orga‐ nelles and collecting resources. Players then invest those resources detoxify‐ ing the cell and building enzymes, hormones, and hormone receptors ‐ all of which score health points.

RNtertainment

Mosby's RNtertainment: An NCLEX Review Game, 2e, is a revolutionary game designed as a review tool for nursing students preparing for the NCLEX examination or for practicing nurses who want to reinforce and sharpen their nursing knowledge.

Compounded

Compounded is a game about building chemical compounds through careful management of elements, a fair bit of social play and trading, and just a bit ok luck. In Compounded, players take on the roles of lab managers, hastily competing to complete the most compounds before they are completed by others - or destroyed in an explosion.

 

Elementeo

 

In the Elementeo Chemistry Card Game V2, elements have their own personalities: Oxygen becomes Oxygen Life-Giver, Sodium becomes Sodium Dragon, and Iodine becomes Iodine Mermaid. Oxygen Life-Giver can rust metals, Copper Cyclops can shock cards around him, and Helium Genie can lift element cards in balloons. Students create compounds, play with elements, and explore the world of science like never before.

EFG Chemistry


In Chemistry: An Atom Building Game, players must use their knowledge of chemistry to construct the atom with the most protons, neutrons and electrons (i.e. Nucleon points). Players must use their wit and knowledge to develop a strategy using the various types of Chemistry cards to create an atom that will dwarf the other players' atoms. Developed for student-centered TEST PREP.

Covalence

In covalence, players work together to accurately build a number of secret Organic molecules. One player has knowledge of the molecules, while all other players must deduce what these secret molecules are, based upon a limited number of clues given to them.

Chemistry Fluxx

Chemistry Fluxx is the elemental car game where the rules are always changing. Use atoms and laboratory gear to match the current goal and win! chemistry Fluxx is the perfect compound of chance and skill, where you'll not only be playing with elements and molecules, but you'll also be learning about them! chemistry Fluxx is so much fun you'll be playing it more than periodically.

Ion

Ion is a game about chemistry - more specifically, it's a game about building compounds.

 

Antimatter Matters

Explore the strange and wonderful world of quantum physics, where a handful of tiny particles interact to form the atoms that make up ourselves and everything we experience in the world around us. 
 

 

Plague Inc.

Each player is a deadly disease, evolving unique symptoms to customise their pathogen as they compete against each other to infect cities across the globe and be the first to wipe out humanity

Xtronaut

Do you have what it takes to put together a space mission and race through the solar system? Identify your mission target and put together the right combination of rocket parts and spacecraft to achieve mission success. Watch out for other players as they confound your attempts to launch your mission by forcing you to wait out a government shutdown, swipe your hardware due to higher national priority, or cancel your mission for their own benefit.

Photosynthesis

Take your trees through their life-cycle, from seedling to full Bloom to rebirth, and earn points as their leaves collect energy from the revolving sun's rays
