About The Game
Born in a lab as an experiment fungus, you find yourself in a hostile environment, riddled with other microbes all striving to survive. Using the power of rotating objects to navigate the numerous trials of the petri dish, all while avoiding the various dangers that populate it. Escape the petri dish and evolve into a whole new world: a forsaken laboratory, littered with machines and gadgets to explore. Maneuver the lab facilities, all while solving puzzles with your rotation power along the way, with the goal to find your new home.
