Description official descriptions

Phozon is a chemistry inspired arcade action puzzle game. The player controls a single black molecule called the Chemic which is moved around the screen with a joystick. Also floating around on the screen are the moleks, other molecules of various colours, which automatically bind to the Chemic when bumped into. The aim of each level is to pick up moleks and recreate a certain pattern that is shown in the centre of the screen. If a molek is caught in the wrong position it can be sent away with the reject button.

The game is made harder by the Atomic, a group of balls that moves around the screen and which the player has to avoid touching or a life will be lost. Most of the time the balls move in a group but at times it splits up to cover more of the screen. The Atomic can also fire alpha- and beta-rays which when hitting a molek attached to the Chemic causes it to float away. Initially the Atomic consists of eight balls but it get increasingly larger as the player progresses through the levels. To combat the Atomic there are power moleks that are slightly larger than a regular molek. When one is attached to the Chemic it is for a short time possible to go after and damage the Atomic. However, after a while the destroyed balls will begin regenerating.

Levels are divided into worlds and the fourth and final level of each world is a bonus stage with different game play. Here the Chemic fires moleks in four directions when the reject button is pressed. The aim is simply to destroy as many balls of the Atomic as possible. Touching the Atomic doesn't lead to a loss of life here but the stage will end.
