+<application>Atomic Entertainment</application> is a small game which resembles

+
+<para>The aim of <application>Atomic Entertainment</application> is to build
+chemical molecules using basic atoms you are given. The molecule being built is
+shown in a frame in the main window.</para>
+
+<para>Clicking on an atom will cause arrows to appear beside it. These arrows
+show the direction the atom can be moved. After an arrow is clicked, the atom
+will move in this direction until it reaches the next border or another atom. If
+two atoms touch each other with the corresponding connectors, they form a
+molecule. The atoms can only be moved one at a time. </para>
+
+<para>The level is solved when the new molecule has the same structure as shown
+in the preview window.</para>
+
+<para>In the higher levels, some tactical skill will be necessary for solving
+the puzzle.</para>
+
+<para>The best score in this game is actually the lower score, because the
+goal is to solve a level with as few moves as
+possible. <guilabel>Highscore:</guilabel> in the main-window shows
+the lowest number of moves used for this level. <guilabel>Your score
+so far:</guilabel> shows the current number of moves.</para>
+
+<para>The scrollbar on the top right of the main window changes the game
+level.</para>
