Each player controls a strain of bacteria growing within a petri dish. Starting with a single germ, players grow and divide their germs to expand their colonies, move them around the dish, and surround opposing germs to eliminate them. The dish contains four goal areas. The first player to gain exclusive control of three areas wins.
