Global Chemistry (2003)

In this game players create chemical companies in order to devellop as much products as possible. During the game, the players are confronted with economical, chemical and technical questions.
Products can be created within one of the four categories: specialties, energy, consumer products of pharmaceuticals. Through research, design, and pilot phase a final product is created and victory points are gained.
But the competition can be hard and they can make it difficult for the player to make a return on his investment for the products he's creating. The winner is the player who dominates the world's economy by creating the most products and gaining the most victory points.

On release, a free copy was sent to almost 1000 schools in The Netherlands and Belgium.
