Germ Wars

Germ Wars puts you in control of a determined White Blood Cell battling germs inside a human body. You slam into viruses, bacteria and other germs, pursuing a quest for self-discovery, vengeance and the destruction of the invading microbes.

Abilities and combat

Your basic attacks use headbutts, while Powerbutt increases the damage they inflict. Blast pushes nearby germs and debris away; debris can also be used as a projectile. Blast starts out less effective, but upgrades can make it a more powerful weapon.

Upgrade branches

You can develop your White Blood Cell through eight upgrade branches:

• Speed: move faster, deal more potential damage and make it harder for enemies to evade you.
• Damage: increase the pain you inflict.
• Ability Cooldown: use your abilities more frequently.
• Powerbutt Strength: increase the strength of your headbutts.
• Blast Radius: expand Blast’s area of effect.
• Blast Power: increase the force of Blast.
• Health: withstand more damage.
• Health Regeneration: recover health over time.

Each branch has two unique perks, unlocked at level 5 in that branch. You can activate only one perk per branch at a time. Perks give your cell a visual attachment as well as increased power.

Growing challenge

Your cell grows stronger as you play, but enemies do too. The longer a single run lasts before you die, the more powerful the enemies that spawn become. After each death, you rise again stronger.
