Dissect the Mechanical Brain in Explore: Artificial Intelligence – Mind Machines

Hello Universe Architects,

The time has come for Semblance to explore the technological origins of her curiosity. How has she come to be? Why is she here? And what is her intended purpose? For centuries people have imagined a tool that could replicate or even surpass the complexity of the human brain. Will you help Semblance during her moment of self-discovery?

Explore: Artificial Intelligence – Mind Machines




[h2]Information Processing…[/h2]
The development of artificial intelligence is still an evolving process. Follow the elaborate history of automata in the 1700’s to the pros and cons of modern A.I. in the new Explore Event tree.
  • Process valuable information provided by 64 Research Nodes.
  • Assemble the foundations of computer systems with 6 total Generators.
  • Progress through the tree to turn Artificial Intelligence into a Progress Bar Generator.
  • Earn Circuits to transfer them into an electrifying new currency: Nodes.
  • Hear Semblance’s thoughts as she accompanies you on the tree.


[h2]Simulation: COMPLETE[/h2]
Simulate your own collection of knowledge in the Artificial Intelligence event garden, complete with sparkling nodes in the background.



[h2]Deep Learning[/h2]
Add these technologically advanced Explore Event badges to your database.
  • Get the simulation gears turning with Thinking Machine (+5% A.I. event boost), Hivemind (+10% A.I. event boost), and Superintelligence (+15% A.I. event boost).



Explore: Artificial Intelligence — Mind Machines is available to play on Steam, Android and iOS today at 11am ET until February 3 at 10:50am ET.


It was great to see so many of you in our most recent Chillstream! There we revealed a first look at our first event of the year, Explore: Artificial Intelligence – Mind Machines. If you missed out on the hype, click here to watch it on YouTube. There’s also a specially themed Darwinium code for players to claim on our socials.

New year, new in-game content. While it’s too early to share details yet, we have a cellular year planned for players. Keep an eye out for the first dev diary of 2025, which is currently in the works and slated to release in February.

Calculate the Truth in Explore: Mathematics – Beautiful Complexity

Hello Universe Architects,

As a curious species, we are all too aware of the mysteries that go unsolved. Throughout history humans have chased down answers to some of these questions, and one field of study in particular has provided irrefutable proof. Some people may even say it’s an entirely different language.

We have done some calculations of our own, and we’ve deduced that it’s time for an all-new Explore Event. Crack out your calculators for:

Explore: Mathematics – Beautiful Complexity




[h2]Greater Than The Sum Of Its Parts[/h2]
Which systems in mathematics were developed first? How did we discover numbers? Just how evolved are we in our mathematical pursuits? The answers are adding up on the new Explore Event tree.
  • Explore the surprisingly fun side of math with 61 total Research Nodes.
  • Learn more about important numerical pillars with 8 new Generators
  • Envision the structure of mathematical theories with custom-tailored icon art.
  • Follow along with italic word problems in the tooltips to get into an analytical mindset.


[h2]A Gifted Mind[/h2]
The human brain works overtime while problem solving. Enjoy the feeling of deciphering head-scratching problems encapsulated in the new Explore Event garden.
  • Fill empty headspace with each Generator unlock and watch the Math garden overflow with knowledge.


[h2]The Math is Mathing[/h2]
We’ve double checked our math, and we know we got this answer right. Add these three badges to your simulation for a significant percentage boost: Algebra, Pi, and Euler’s Identity.

Explore: Mathematics — Beautiful Complexity is available to play on Steam, Android and iOS today at 11am ET until December 19 at 10:50pm ET.


While we finish carrying over the 1, it’s time we share a little bit of information outside of the simulation. Our team is hosting a Let’s Play for Explore: Mathematics on our official Discord server RIGHT NOW! Join in on the fun, ask the devs some questions and receive free Darwinium when you provide us with your Player ID. We’ll be there brainstorming until 12 PM ET.

In case you missed our livestream last week, it’s currently available to view on YouTube. This was our last livestream of the year so don’t miss out on the festivities, Darwinium codes, and an insider perspective on Explore: Math from our economy specialist!

Speaking of the end of the year, our team will be going on a holiday break next week and we’ll be returning in January. We can’t thank our players enough for another mindblowing year of curiosity, discoveries and support. Stay tuned for more to come in 2025.

Happy holidays and stay brainy,
The Cells team

Brace Yourself for Impact in Beyond E27: Galactic Battle

Hello Universe Architects,

While we have escaped the clutches of the black hole, another threat looms over the horizon. We are safe for now; the Milky Way Galaxy is massive and is slowly tugging away at alarming neighboring galaxies. But there is one that’s coming to challenge the Milky Way. And it threatens the very existence of time and space as we know it.

Who will win the battle of the masses? Find out in:

Beyond E27: Galactic Battle




[h2]One With the Force[/h2]
A whole universe exists outside of the Milky Way Galaxy, and it’s more chaotic than we can fathom. What possible threats could be waiting for us amongst the stars?
  • Combine all of your E25 and E26 progress to form a complete Milky Way Galaxy Generator.
  • Spiral into heightened production with five galactic Generators.
  • Leave the familiar behind with 11 new Trait Cards.


[h2]Arm in Arm[/h2]
We are not alone in space. Other galaxies surround the Milky Way, but one of them in particular is too close for comfort. Andromeda is headed right for us, and only disaster will strike once the two galaxies meet.
  • Observe three additional galaxies in the Beyond garden.
  • Witness the chaos as Andromeda sets course for collision with our home galaxy.


[h2]Collision Course[/h2]
Celestial goodies have been scattered throughout the universe. Find them all and reap the rewards.
