Petri: Microbe Swarm screenshot

You are a brand-new microbe. Grow a living swarm: send cells between colonies, upgrade them, and out-spread rival strains across five animal hosts, from fish to whale. Roguelike runs: pick a strain, mutate after every win or skip for a one-battle boost. Mouse, keyboard or controller.
