How to improve your score on Chain Rxn?

Let's start by going over how the scoring system works.

The first ball that you hit gives you 100 points. When another ball hits the "explosion" from the first ball, you get another 800 points. When another ball will hit your second explosion you'll get 2,700 points. That's the basic of the scoring concept -- 4th ball will be 6,400 points, 5th will be 12,500, 6th will be 21,600, and so on. If a balls hits an "old" explosion get less points than a new explosion -- this is what you wish to avoid.

100 -> 800 -> 2,700 -> 6,400 -> 12,500 -> 21,600 -> ... and it keeps on going!

You'll also get a lot of extra points for clearing all the balls on the screen, but as far as I can tell, it's pure luck :)

So how do you improve your score? The key concept is to wait, have patience. Look for a "chain" of balls going towards one of the corners of the screen, the more balls the better. It's important that the balls will not arrive at the same time!

Start the game from that corner. This chain of balls will quickly elevate the amount of points you get per ball. After that, just watch as you get Millions of points per level. It will take several tries until you manage to get the required amounts of balls, so don't give up that easily on this techinque.

This technique will easily get you around 35M points. Give it a few tries, it will get you far beyond 35M if you have patience.
