Read full description
A turn-based roguelite unlike anything you've played before
Dive into the microscopic world - cure the virus ravaging the planet. In Cell Command, units grow when they move, and attacks shrink them. A "tank" could be a long, winding python that clogs up the battlefield & encircles its prey!
Mix DNA nucleotides A C G T to discover unique, unicellular combatants
Command cells (get it?) to construct bridges for ranged units to strike from afar, or poke holes in the map to trap hostiles. Gain attack bonuses when your cells form specific shapes with their long bodies. Dominate with godlike build synergies. Make use of poison, radiation, thorns & more.
