iGEM Educational Game

TU Delft Serious Game.jpg

To make synthetic biology more fun and interesting for children our team developed a serious game in cooperation with students from Media and Knowledge Engineering and Industrial Design.

GAME Description

In this game you control a bacterium that you must provide with the appropriate properties survive viruses, antibiotics or low oxygen levels. Creating these new properties is done by collecting parts in your action screen. If you have collected enough parts, you can go to the lab to assemble the needed BioBricks. Children can learn that adding properties can be done by combining parts of DNA and get to know the factors that play a role in the survival of a microorganisms.

Level 1: Tutorial: And then there was light!

In this level the player learns about the different parts and is challenged to build a BioBrick with GFP. One part can only be obtained by conjungation with another bacterium.

Level 2: Antibiotic resistance

Level 3: Mine detection

Level 4: Oil degradation
