Toxin "Bugs"!



The "red bugs" in this game are the good guys -- let's think of them as healthy red blood cells. And the green bugs might be environmental toxins (poisons) that are chasing them. Here's how to beat the toxins!
  1. Center the game on your screen using your scroll bar.
  2. Quickly point & click with the mouse to kill the green toxins before they poison all the healthy cells.
  3. Try NOT to click directly on any red cells since that ends the game too!
  4. Your score will appear in the top left corner of the box while you play.
  5. When you hear a "whooshing" sound and the life energy score turns yellow, then red, the game is about to end.
  6. The game score disappears quickly, but the high score reappears when a new game starts.
