Stomach Rumble (Mid)

If you stop to think about it, the conversion of the food we eat into digestible matter and energy is somewhat of a miracle. This game sheds light on how the whole process of digestion works. First, you will learn the organs that make up the digestive system. You will then journey through the digestive system, witnessing the breakdown of food from chunks, to molecules, to energy.
