Summary
Phozon is a chemistry‑themed arcade puzzler that drops you into the role of the Chemic, a tiny black atom with four red spikes. Your job is to snag passing Moleks—tiny floating blobs in cyan, green, pink or yellow—and stick them onto the Chemic in the exact arrangement shown at the screen’s centre, using a reject button whenever a piece lands in the wrong spot. A yellow counter at the bottom tracks how many Moleks remain before the pattern must be completed.
A single foe, the Atomic, roams the playfield as a chaotic clump of balls; a single touch ends the round, but from the second world onward you can latch onto a larger Power Molek to spin your attached Moleks faster and buy time. Every fourth stage flips the script, letting you fire yellow Moleks outward to harass the Atomic.
Technically, Phozon runs on three 6809 microprocessors and a Namco 8‑channel PSG for its bright soundscape. Though it never left Japan officially, it topped arcade popularity charts there in late 1983 and later resurfaced in Namco Museum collections and modern Arcade Archives releases for Switch and PS4.
