Chemistry game systems and methods are provided. The systems and methods provide an analog and a video portion which may be employed together or separate. Characters in the game battle each other and the outcomes may be based on character statistics and or chance. When employed together the video portion may display a graphical display of an interaction that takes place between the characters in the analog game.

The present invention is a periodic table based game system. The game board has a periodic table of elements printed upon it. Each of the elements is covered by a magnetic piece with a matching atomic number, such that the players may only view the atomic number of the elements. The game begins when the first player chooses a stick or card with an element name and symbol on it. The player then must lift a magnetic piece to reveal the same element that is listed on the stick or card. If they are successful, they are rewarded points and the next player takes a turn. If they fail three times, the next player will also have three attempts to uncover the correct element and receive points. When all magnetic pieces are removed, the player with the highest sum of points wins the game.

A collaborative learning device and processes for groups to enable each person of the group to learn difficult subject matter by answering written questions, awarding points, revealing answers, and discussing answers and concepts. The device and process promotes technology, science, engineering and math courses, sometimes known as STEM disciplines, through collaborative learning centered on the devices of the invention. Devices of the collaborative game are a game board with markers and written questions associated with STEM subject indicators on the game board. Participants take turns selecting questions, answering individually, revealing and collaboratively discussing answers, and awarding points for correct answers. Participants award points to the most collaborative participant, which encourages participation and input from the participants.
