A still from final playable game

When I started learning React. I stumbled upon this React beginners tutorial on Scrimba offered by Bob Ziroll. Scrimba has got some really awesome interactive tutorials for front end developers.

On React’s official website, I was going through one of the tutorial where they taught how to make tic tak toe. This is how I came up with an idea to make my own multiplayer game which can be played on browser itself. No need to install the application on mobile, just hit the URL and start playing.

This game Chain Reaction is popular game on Google Play Store. It has been my all time favorite board game. A strategy game for 2 players. The objective of Chain Reaction is to take control of the board by eliminating your opponent’s digits. I first stumbled upon this game in first year of my undergrad. Back then I was learning C and I made this game in C. That was my first mini project in C. You can see it here on Github.

I thought why not make same game with an interface. Since, this is what React is about. I was through with the logic of game since I have coded it already in another language and above that I have played it hundreds and hundreds of times. So now all I have to focus on was to implement the basic concepts of React.

Click here to see the final product.

Please comment what you think about it. Kindly suggest more features you want to see in this game.
