Infektor

Infektor is a fast-paced arcade action game in which you control a microbe in a hostile environment. Dodge enemies, use the surroundings to your advantage and collect plasma from fallen foes for points and bonus health. The game has two modes: Survival, where you fend off waves for as long as possible, and Infect, where you spread infection through a series of levels.

Microbes and mutagens

Choose from three microbes, each with different physical characteristics and unique special abilities. Before starting a level, you can spend collected plasma on mutagens: six common mutagens that improve general characteristics, and nine special mutagens tailored to specific microbes, three for each.

Survival mode

Survival is a score-attack mode where you try to last as long as possible while earning points. It is the main source of plasma, which you need to equip mutagens and unlock new Survival levels. Some arenas have traps you can trigger to shake off pursuers; others have lymph nodes to activate and infect for extra points, or bonus lymph nodes that put you in danger as you pursue them. The longer you survive, the harder it gets.

Infect mode

In Infect, you progress through levels by infecting all the lymph nodes while avoiding destruction. Most levels have multiple stages, with new paths, targets and enemy spawn points opening as the infection spreads. They usually take less time to complete than Survival levels and often award bonus points for finishing quickly, sometimes also rewarding you for taking little damage. Some offer opportunities to leave the main route and take on extra risks, so speed is not always the only way to earn a high score.
