Survive the galaxy. Meet your quota. Choose the right lifeforms.

In Novagene, you are responsible for selecting alien life suitable for colonizing distant planets. Each day begins by choosing between two planets, each with its own environmental requirements that determine which traits are needed for survival.

Choose Your Destination

At the start of each run, select one of two available planets. Each planet favors specific biological traits, and your success depends on identifying which organisms are best suited for that environment.

Analyze Alien Traits

Examine incoming alien specimens and determine whether they meet the planet’s requirements. Current traits include:

Fur

Scales

Smooth skin

Only the right traits will allow a species to survive on its assigned world.

Meet the Daily Quota

Send qualified specimens to the colony to meet your daily quota. Choosing the wrong traits may jeopardize your success, so careful selection is key.

Your Mission

Select the correct alien lifeforms and fulfill your quota to support interplanetary colonization efforts.
