The game takes up different aspects of synthetic biology and our project and embeds it in an entertaining environment.</br>The game&apos;s overall design was adapted to our comic series. Like that the player is able to recognize the characters from the comic in the game and draw a connection between them.</p><p>The game is a mixture between a simple aim-and-shoot game and an adventure game: at certain score levels the player gets the possibility to achieve upgrades that influence the player&apos;s success. The gameplay and the upgrades convey our system of light-induced degradation of proteins.</p><p>In the game the player has to kill the villains, the red &quot;Clones&quot;, with a laser gun in order to gain points. However neutral bacteria, the &quot;Civilians&quot;, will also be killed by the UV light and thus points are deducted. To avoid that, the player is able to upgrade his UV laser to a blue laser, which has got a defined wavelength and affects only the red Clones. As those carry a ssrA-tagged protein, they are rendered harmless by the blue light: the &quot;evil&quot; proteins are degraded, they turn from evil clone warriors to nice and peaceful bacteria. The Civilians however are not harmed by the blue light.</p><p>Every once in a while super villain &quot;Darth Cherry&quot; appears in the game. If you succeed to hit him three times the player is rewarded with extra time and a score bonus. With the upgrade &quot;plasmid of death&quot; Darth Cherry can be terminated with only one hit, which demonstrates the facility to change properties of bacteria by inserting plasmids.</p><p>The other upgrades show the player how to improve our system: You can get a wider and stronger laser so that you can hit more bacteria at a time, the &quot;Falcon of LB&quot; upgrade can be used to attract more bacteria and ice makes all the bacteria slower.</br>As the game&apos;s main intention is to give a simple introduction and to draw interest, we had to generalize and simplify all these aspects in order to be able to embed them in the game and not to overwhelm the player.</br>As of this writing already several hundred people from all over the world have played and enjoyed our game.
