Mendel

Mendel is a science creativity sandbox where you pilot a probe on a distant planet, collect samples from native flowers and breed them to create hybrids. As their genes combine and rearrange, the plants mutate, producing new creations for your alien garden.

Experiment with plants

Mendel has no goals or objectives. You can grow your own Proteus and experiment, create and relax in a peaceful sandbox. The game offers tens of thousands of possible surreal plants to discover and grow.

Genetics and science

The plants’ genes combine and change in ways inspired by genetics in the natural world. Mendel received the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Public Understanding prize for its commitment to showing the beauty of genetics.
