We fight off host and cellular immune responses with armies of our virions, RNA genomes, and viral proteins. We steal energy and abuse cell resources to spread our infection. We are infectious, we are disease, we are the Raven Virus. We have numbers and speed on our side, use us wisely and recklessly.

Virulent is a action/strategy game that was designed and developed by the Education Research Challenge Area at the Morgridge Institute for Research, a non-profit biomedical research institute. This game was designed in collaboration with the Systems Biology research group at the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery and a faculty member from the Medical Microbiology and Immunology department at the University of Wisconsin - Madison.
