Bioreactor Tycoon turns the manufacturing of antibody drugs (monoclonal antibodies) into an idle management tycoon simulation.
[How to play]
1) Hunt for "seeds" in the Discovery Lab (an antibody-scooping minigame) - scoop a good cell line from many.
2) Culture in the factory - grow cells in a bioreactor (progresses while idle).
3) Purify with columns - read the impurities (aggregates, charge variants, etc.) and assemble your column train. Success is never guaranteed.
4) Meet spec and ship - graded S / A / B / C.
[A purification puzzle of reading and assembling]
Each cell line has different properties (glycans, aggregation tendency, charge), and you pick purification columns to match (Protein A / ion exchange / hydrophobic / hydroxyapatite). Stacking columns blindly lowers your yield. A game of thinking, inspired by real manufacturing.
[Learn with 30 real-world targets]
Features real antibody-drug targets such as TNF-alpha, HER2, PD-1, and IL-6R. Tap to read a built-in glossary explaining the technical terms. Touch the basics of antibody drugs and GMP manufacturing as you play.
[Run an idle factory as a tycoon]
Manufacturing continues while the app is closed. Come back to find drugs stacked up. Spend your earnings to unlock new targets and add parallel reactor lines to grow the plant. Long-term goals like Dex completion and lifetime shipments keep you going.
[A buy-once game you can enjoy with peace of mind]
