A colony that lives and breathes

Grow Your Colony

Accumulate DNA passively from every cell you control. Split at thresholds that grow with your colony — 10, 30, 90, 270 DNA and beyond.

Capture Enemies

Hold your capture ring over an enemy organism for 5 seconds to absorb it. Every captured cell joins your colony and adds to your income.

Fight Infection

40% of new cells are born faulty. They spread disease to neighbours. Manage outbreaks before your colony collapses.

Evolve Talents

Spend DNA on permanent upgrades — cellular resistance, T-cell permeation, and rapid antibody response.
