Chain Reaction

Chain Reaction is a strategic puzzle game where the objective is to create cascading explosions to maximize your score within a limited number of moves.
Core Mechanics:
The 6x6 Grid & Capacity: Each cell has a maximum charge capacity based on its location:
Corner cells: Capacity of 2 (expands in 2 directions).
Edge cells: Capacity of 3 (expands in 3 directions).
Center cells: Capacity of 4 (expands in 4 directions).
Gameplay Loop: Start with 25 moves. Tap any cell to add 1 charge to it.
Explosions: When a cell reaches its capacity, it explodes, dropping its charge to 0 and distributing 1 charge to its direct neighbors (up, down, left, and right).
Chain Reactions: If a neighboring cell reaches its capacity from a distributed charge, it explodes in the next wave, creating a domino effect across the board.
Scoring & Tracking:
Points are awarded based on the depth of the cascade (the "wave") and the number of cells exploding simultaneously.
Higher wave depths (Chain ×2, Chain ×3, etc.) apply a score multiplier to that wave.
The game tracks your current session score, all-time highest score, and all-time deepest chain reaction.
The Meltdown & Bonus Level:
Meltdown: Trigger a chain reaction that lasts for more than 100 consecutive waves to trigger a Meltdown and receive a 5,000-point bonus.
Bonus Level: Following a Meltdown, the board resets into a volatile state where every cell has a 30% chance of being pre-filled to one charge below its maximum capacity.
Endgame:
The game ends when all 25 moves are exhausted. A game-over screen displays your final score and all-time bests.
