BOID

A real-time strategy game about microorganisms fighting for control of the distant planet Kepler 42-C, where life was changed by a malfunctioning drone crashing into the ocean. There are no resources to manage or bases to build: the army is the only resource, and victory depends on quick decisions and control of key positions.

Claimed positions let units reproduce and mutate into seven specialized types, from fast but vulnerable Scouts to explosive Kamikazes and life-draining Leeches. Online play includes ranked, unranked, and private one-on-one matches. Bots offer practice skirmishes across four difficulty levels.

A map editor lets players create and share multiplayer maps. Battles revolve around choosing unit classes and countering opposing forces, with heavy, slow units competing against fast, weaker ones.
