What you'll practice
A full Sea Wolf Game run takes you through every step of the real game — and repeats the whole sequence for all three ocean sites, on one 30-minute clock:
Profiling characteristics
pick exactly two of the site's attributes and traits to filter the microbe database. The wrong two make every later step harder.
Categorization
sort 10 microbes into current site, next site, or back to the database — under real time pressure, with next-site previews to weigh.
Prospect pool
grow your pool from 6 to 10 by picking one microbe from each of four groups of three.
Treatment
select the 3 microbes whose averaged attributes land inside every required range and whose traits satisfy the site — the step where 50 data points meet a shrinking clock.
Every run is timed and scored out of 300. Paid runs show exactly which selections cost you points, with unlimited new scenarios to fix them.
