Bio Inc - Biomedical Simulator is a dark and twisted race against time to pump a victim full of diseases. Take too long and the medical profession will save the patient. Which is apparently bad.

The game is a swift arcade tapping puzzler that sees you collecting various infections and bacterias to spend on ailments. These ailments range from the flu to a nervous breakdown. Or a heart attack. Or something much worse.

Pile on enough diseases and problems and your guinea pig starts to crash. Then you pile on some more until they're dead.

It's a strange one. Entertaining and grim in equal measures, it tackles some interesting subjects in a slightly heavy handed way. But you can give people gastric flu and listen to them vomit, so it's not all bad.

The game is out in New Zealand right now, which means it'll be landing in the UK at midnight tonight. When it does it'll set you back £1.49 / $1.99.
