Phylo- Play this flash game, help scientists cure diseases.

[futuramaguy4]

While it may just seem like a color matching game with a scoring system that is a bit confusing at first, but while you are playing you are actually helping scientists compare genome sequences between different animals, which may be able to trace origins of diseases and help get a cure for them.

The game also has a ranking system that tells you how well you did compared to others on each level.

You can also choose levels from difficulty, or which disease you want to help cure. (also by a level code if you want to play the same level again later, or share it with others)

Play the tutorial, it's really weird at first. Some levels you don't do anything and some are almost impossible, it's weird.

We are not doing it because it is boring for them, but because there are many of use which means they get better results.
