## Review summary

Overall, Alcyone is a fun, addictive puzzle with a unique chemistry roguelike vibe and smooth UI. It’s educational and satisfying to discover real-world reactions, but onboarding is weak and several core UX gaps persist—no save, no level selection, and limited explanations of colors and mechanics. Users want better in-game help, a home/menu screen, and theme options. Despite these issues, players see strong potential and have even welcomed added features like undo.

### Pros

- Addictive and fun puzzle gameplay that grips players and scales in challenge.
- Unique roguelike chemistry concept with real-world reactions and compounds.
- Smooth, appealing UI that users praise.
- Educational value: players learn chemistry concepts while playing.

### Cons

- Lack of onboarding and tutorials; mechanics and color meanings aren’t clearly explained.
- No save/resume feature; long sessions risk losing progress when exiting the app.
- No level selection or custom runs; players want to start later or customize runs.
- Need better in-app help/about content (color coding, reactions) and accessible molecule info.
- Requests for features like a home/menu screen and theme options (dark/light mode).
