Cells And Genes and Reproduction

In the first part of this game, you'll get to divide your cells until you have enough for a full organism. Once you've divided enough cells, you'll get to create offspring.

After you successfully create a new organism, you will get to take a quiz that will test your knowledge over the content you just learned.
