Win cells by dividing and multiplying; jump from spot to spot to gain territory; close in on your opponents and blow them apart. Just make sure the good guys don’t get caught in friendly fire! Battles take place in three locations - leaves, mold, and water. Each battleground has its own features: teleporters, bombs, or yeast which threatens to take over the whole board as it grows and grows. There are six types of cell. Regular cells divide, move, and change the color of other cells. Yeast scatters seeds and takes up random spots. Temporary and permanent blocks make the game more difficult.
