Sandboxels

Sandboxels is a free experimentation simulator that can be played in any web browser. It features heat simulation, electricity, density, chemical reactions, cooking, and fire spread.

Students are given a hands-on experience with over 500 unique interactive materials. They can see the effects of their actions in real time.

For instance, if a student decides to pour Water over a pile of Sodium, they will witness one of hundreds of chemical reactions. Maybe they decide to freeze it and see what happens.

This learning approach offers in-depth understanding of phenomena in many fields, such as biology, chemistry, ecology, geology, cooking, and even virology.

When I was a child I spent days and days playing this game called Powder Game, and now I can play this in the vicinity of my chromebook!

This game is wonderful! You can make anything in it, food, an ecosystem or machines! You can mix elements to make new ones or to see them react! There are also mods to add anything else you want from the game. Not to mention the community and the dev are super friendly. Whenether I'm bored I always boot up the game and make something.

This is a wonderful and creative game! Filled with fun and interesting explorations and creations! You can mmix elements and energy to make reactions, you can make a city, or a thriving eco-system! I love this game beyond all others! I never run out of things to do and I always want to come back!
