Pit yourself against atomic physics in Bond Breaker, a new puzzle game based on real nano-scale science. You start this game in the smallest way possible - as a single proton, without even a single atom to call your own. But with a little luck, and a lot of physical chemistry, you'll grow into an atoms, smash together into molecules, or break apart again using lasers, tunneling microscopes, and heat. Created by TestTubeGames and scientists at the CaSTL research center at UC Irvine, this is truly the most accurate physics engine to date. After all, what other game is correct down to the atomic level? When you make and break molecular bonds, you’ll encounter real forces and real physics. This isn’t just simple stuff, either! You'll learn about... The forces that bind molecules together How lasers can excite atoms Why water sticks together into drops What happens when you heat something up And much, much more. Simply put, this is the most fun you can have without buying your own Scanning Tunneling Microscope!
Atomics

Atomics is an idle clicker game about growing elements and expanding your own periodic table. Start with Hydrogen. Tap to collect Energy, upgrade research labs, automate reactors, improve element efficiency, and discover the next element. You can return to any discovered element, keep building your favorites, and raise the power of your entire research cycle. Every element has its own skill. As you develop elements, you unlock bonuses that affect your whole lab. Build several elements from the same category to activate set bonuses from nonmetals, noble gases, alkali metals, transition metals, and more. Once you reach the 10th element and beyond, rebirth becomes available. Use Atomic Cores and rebirth points to make the next run stronger. Expand the rebirth skill tree, improve idle production, tap power, active slots, and unlock deeper research paths such as compounds, isotopes, and antimatter. Whether you play in short tapping sessions or let progress build while idle, your lab keeps moving forward. Fill the periodic table and enjoy a long-form elemental growth game. - 118 elements from Hydrogen to Oganesson - Simple tap-and-idle Energy growth - Labs, reactors, and efficiency upgrades for each element - Unique element skills and category set bonuses - Long-term progression with Atomic Cores and rebirth points - Map-style rebirth skill tree - Deep research into compounds, isotopes, and antimatter - Achievements to guide your progress - Supports Japanese, English, Chinese, Korean, Spanish, German, French, Italian, and Russian - Autosave support

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Bond Breaker at none against Atomics's shown. Bond Breaker also leads on iOS requirement (6.0 vs 13.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
