Nano Legends is an innovative new video game about the science of cells and cancer. Nano Legends breaks down the barriers in producing educational gaming for middle school age students.
Students will board the Hyperion, a ship created in the future for the purpose of medicinal assistance through nanotechnology. The microscopic ship and crew travel through the body and into the depths of cellular structure. Just like learning the layout of any action game, students will remember the map of a human cell.
The action doesn't stop there - when the Hyperion nears a cell suspected of being cancerous, the ship is recognized by the body as a foreign susbstance, and the immune system mounts an attack. While the Hyperion is being attacked, the cell is found to be cancerous and it is the job of the student deal with the cancer before the cell divides and spreads out of control.
The adventure continues as the journey takes students deeper into the cell, where they will find transport proteins, carcinogens, DNA, and many other obstacles and puzzles.
A real game based on real science!
