How it works
Eat 22% bigger, not equal
You need a real size edge to engulf another cell.
Metabolism never stops
Big cells burn more just sitting still.
Bigger is slower
Size trades away your speed.
Split and watch for phages
Space divides you past 70 pg. Phages burst cells over 150 pg.
Evolve once, specialize once
11 paths at 70 pg — speed, defense, stealth, toxicity and more. One more pick at 300 pg sharpens it.
Steal genes past 500 pg
Swallow another 500 pg cell whole and you keep its ability. Collect all 11 — each one you carry costs extra upkeep.
White blood cells hunt the huge
Past 260 pg the immune system notices and drains you — unless you've evolved to dodge it.
