Great visualization and simulation on how bacteria can adapt and evolve to take over the world!

How I Use It

This would be a great product to use when introducing epidemiology, especially patterns and cause-and-effect situations. Students have complete control of where they want to start their disease on the planet and then gain points and use those points to evolve their organism in 3 different ways; transmission, symptoms, abilities. These evolutions cause an increase in one of three areas: infectivity, severity, and lethality. At the same time, the world scientists are working against you to come up with a cure for a student made disease. Pros: This can be used to teach safe health practices in the classroom environment (perhaps laboratory setting) or at home. Cons: In order to fully appreciate the full potential of this game, you would need to purchase the full game.
