This was a really fun game. I found the mosquito game a bit easier to play because I could tell where all the humans where that I was supposed to bite. The plasmodium game was really hard for me as there were many immune cells out to get me and I got destroyed quite a bit. This is a great game if you are teaching about immunology or specifically about insect borne diseases.
