How to Play & Molecular Mechanics
- Slice to Cleave: Drag your mouse or swipe on mobile across falling viral nucleic acid strands to execute a double-strand break (DSB).
- PAM Specificity: Match the active Cas enzyme to the target's PAM motif. SpCas9 cleaves targets with
NGG; AsCas12a cleaves T-richTTTVmotifs. - Enzyme Hotkeys: Press
1or2on desktop (or tap the enzyme buttons) to switch Cas complexes in real time. - Combos & Multipliers: Chain multiple successful cleaves without letting strands hit the bottom integration line to build up your streak multiplier and earn bonus ATP.
- Tactical Cellular Overdrives: Spend ATP on dCas9 Shield (blocks integration), Prime Edit (+40 health), Base Edit (converts C→T), or Hyper-Drive (high-speed clearing).
