The TaqMan® Game from Life Technologies puts you at the molecular level in a fast-moving match game designed for scientists. Immerse yourself in a virtual polymerase chain reaction (PCR) by matching TaqMan® primer and probe sets to complementary DNA strand sequences. Act fast before time runs out! Your score depends on how quickly you match TaqMan® primer and probe sets to their DNA targets. As you progress through the game, primer and probe sets get longer - and so do the strands of DNA. Put your skills to the test with this amazingly addictive game.
