You are a mysterious field that can attract subatomic particles together in small groups, thereby synthesizing atoms of various elements. Making Hydrogen one atom at a time isn’t too hard, but there’s so much antimatter about, even Helium is a challenge. Can you capture the components of a Lithium atom? Beryllium? Something even more complex? (Probably not, because the game balance isn’t that great: there really is too much antimatter. Li, at least, is achievable.)
