About this game
The Life Cycle of Malaria is an edutainment game that informs players about malaria in a creative manner. By allowing players to role-play as the mosquito and the malaria parasite, and interacting with different stages of the disease's life-cycle, this application offers an alternative way of learning about malaria.
-------------------------------
- Edutainment, aims to be educational as well as entertaining.
- Great alternative to traditional linear mediums (like books, videos), as it lets players interact and learn.
- Play from the perspective of the antagonist, the -anopheles mosquito- and the -plasmodium parasite-.
- Learn why mosquito bites itch, why pregnant women are more likely to be bitten, and how the parasite manages to survive.
- The first game of its kind which tries to visualize the malaria life cycle in 3D.
- Completely free, no ads.
--------------------------------
NEW [20 Apr]:
- New quiz about the numbers of mosquitoes in the world.
- Skin surface level has now a button that toggles thermal vision, making it possible to see small capillaries.
- You can now choose to remain dormant inside a liver cell.
- Created a nice illustration which shows the invasion of red blood cells, appearing before the merozoite game stage.
- Various improvements, additions.

I played this game back in 2017 when I was a fair young lad and recently found out about it again. One of my favourite yet educational games I've ever played 😊😊

Note that its system requirements are a bit steep. You'll need a device with about 2 GB of storage and a high end GPU to run this smoothly. Any high end device released in under 2 years ago will run this fine.
