About This Game

Zachtronics is back with an ambitious new design-based puzzle game. Take on the role of a Reactor Engineer working for SpaceChem, the leading chemical synthesizer for frontier colonies. Construct elaborate factories to transform raw materials into valuable chemical products!

In this game, you can…

  • …connect multiple reactors so one puzzle becomes an entire production chain with pipes feeding outputs into the next step.
  • …pack a full solution into a tiny reactor by shaving parts, rerouting, and ending on a precise manual switch sequence.
  • …use flip-flops and timing rules to build counters and branching behavior that makes your reactor act like a program.

About This Game

TIS-100 is an open-ended programming game by Zachtronics, the creators of SpaceChem and Infinifactory, in which you rewrite corrupted code segments to repair the TIS-100 and unlock its secrets. It’s the assembly language programming game you never asked for!

In this game, you can…

  • …print out a real reference manual, then use it to solve the menu that turns out to be the first puzzle.
  • …split one problem across 12 nodes running at once, coordinating them until the outputs line up in the right order.
  • …build your own games inside the machine using a visual console sandbox after you repair enough corrupted segments.

About This Game

Opus Magnum is the latest open-ended puzzle game from Zachtronics, the creators of SpaceChem, Infinifactory, and SHENZHEN I/O. Design and build machines that assemble potions, poisons, and more using the alchemical engineer’s most advanced tool: the transmutation engine!

In this game, you can…

  • …place your inputs and outputs anywhere, then build across an effectively unlimited grid with the full toolset from the start.
  • …export your working solution as an animated GIF that loops forever and share the machine in motion.
  • …turn raw materials into stranger products by bonding, unbonding, and transforming them in long repeating chains of steps.
