A Taste Of GAME FOR SCIENCE
In the new game, Forestia, we face the formidable challenge of sustainable forest management: carry out forest inventories, supply mills using multi-functional tree fellers, fight massive forest fires, and protect a section of the forest that contains an exceptional ecosystem.
Among the several islands there is a GAME FOR SCIENCE expansion for you to try: at GENOMIA Island, populated with garden gnomes who happen to be experts in genomics, you can chat with your friends. You'll also find quests, games and information on genomics.
Head in the stars and feet planted on M.A.R.S.! At GAME FOR SCIENCE, we step on Aeronia Island and learn more about space and aeronautics. Better yet, play M.A.R.S. Mars Academy of Research and Science, a game where you’ll learn about an array of careers related to space exploration. You will find the game here. Bon voyage!
Earning Neurons
At GAME FOR SCIENCE you earn neurons every time you complete a task assigned by a game character. Soon you will be able to use the neurons to modify your avatar. You can also collect neurons by using the knowledge detector to find “smart stars” hidden in the games.
