Chain Reaction is very hard to describe, I can't think of any game I know, that is similar, that in itself makes it unique.

The screen comes up with a box with seven lines five are blank, you have to put a word in the blank lines. The first line has a word, and the last line has a word. Type in a word on the second line which relates to the first word, then a word on the third line that relates to the word on the second line, until you get to the end. I think an example of one puzzle would make things a little clearer.

Given word on first line Frosting
2nd line Cake
3rd line Birthday
4th line Card
5th line Baseball
6th line Hat
7th line given word Brim

Clues are available for each line, (I used this a lot for the first couple of times). The clue is the first letter in the word you are trying to come guess, still stuck ask for another clue you get another letter. You can get clues for the whole word with the exception of the last letter.. After doing a couple of these puzzles they got easier to do. I like the concept and it certainly made you think.

I am not good at crosswords or cryptograph puzzles and I had a hard time with this, but during the middle of trying it out my neighbor came by (who is a word nut) she loved it and I couldn't get her off the machine. There is something for everyone out there and this game is certainly meant for all the word nuts out there.
