This is a biology game where players help DocDuck repair a broken cell by navigating down to explore the cell at a subcellular level.
- Approach the cell and navigate through the cell membrane.
- Explore the organelles inside a eukaryotic cell.
- Activate the nucleolus to generate ribosomes.

- Game Play
- Basics
- In this game players explore various parts of the cell.
- Outside the cell players gather nutrients and shoot down viruses.
- Sections of the game
- Approaching the cell – collect nutrients & block viruses
- Cell membrane – block viruses & collect nutrients by moving a deflector from side to side.
- Ribosomes – collect proteins without bumping into the ribosomes
- Mitochondria – tap on them to generate energy
- Endoplasmic Reticulum – another flying traveling part of the game
- Golgi Apparatus – select where to deliver proteins, lipids, and waste
- Lysosome
- Nucleus
- Nucleolus – activate it to generate ribosomes
- Definitions
- Eukaryotic cell – advanced and complex cells such as those found in plants and animals.
- Organelles – specialized cell parts which have unique jobs to perform.
- Cytoplasm – a fluid which fills cells and supports the various organelles in the cell.
- Prokaryotic cells – simplified cells which lack most organelles & do not have a defined nucleus.
- Cell membrane – the permeable membrane found around all animal cells. The membrane is designed to let nutrients enter while blocking away viruses.
- Ribosome – the organelle which creates proteins for the cell.
- Mitochondria – the powerhouse of the cell which generate the energy needed for the cell to perform its functions. They take nutrients and generate energy through a process called cellular respiration.
- Endoplasmic Reticulum – a network of membranes inside a cell through which proteins and other molecules may move.
- Rough ER – Endoplasmic Reticulum which has Ribosomes attached to it.
- Smooth ER – Endoplasmic Reticulum which does not have Ribosomes attached to it.
- Golgi Apparatus – acts like the postman of the cell. It processes and packages proteins & lipids to send out to other parts of the cell, and throws out garbage through the membrane.
- Lysosome – the garbage collector of the cell which takes in damaged parts of the cell and dissolves them.
- Nucleus – the command center of the cell which contains DNA.
- DNA – genetic code which tells the cell what to do and how to do it.
- Chromosomes – packaged DNA braids which are formed to help prepare the cell for duplication.
- Nucleolus – the portion of the nucleus which creates ribosomes.
- Target Audience
- The game is suited for young learners who like exploring science and biology through interactive games.
- The game has no adult themed content.
