A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Survive the microcosm - enjoy satisfying mechanical and musical progression in this casual click-and-drag. Red Cells reproduce on an exponential curve, keep up by leveling up the area your trail can surround on the same curve. 

Requires no more than five minutes of gameplay to understand the core game loop. Give it a try!

Satisfying Dynamic Music

SFX are integrated into a coherent soundtrack that plays as you do. All sounds are in the same key and chosen for their effect on the chord progression being played. The chords progress as the player does, with the tonic of the key taking center stage following the player's level up.

Three Difficulty Modes

  • Casual: An infinite and calming game mode. No way to lose. A great way to relax.
  • Balanced: The way the game was intended to be played. Not incredibly punishing, but players can still find accomplishment in snagging large groups of enemy cells.
  • Difficult: For those that have spent some time playing Balanced and want to challenge themselves. The margin for error narrows, the enemies are more threatening. Featured in the gameplay video!
