Aphids Attack

A peaceful city of wheat is besieged by a group of misfits, including the aphids "Padi" and "Gramino", along with their inseparable henchman called "Humile" (represented by an evil ant). During the hottest months, between December and February in the southern hemisphere, “Padi” and “Gramino” go in search of food, their main target being the sap of the beloved wheat. For this reason, the farmers of the city organized to defend themselves and enlist the help of the superheroes "Eri" (represented by a funny but daring little Chinese girl) and "Ervi" (a parasitoid that twists its abdomen). The mission of these heroes and biological controllers is to save wheat crops, unleashing a great adventure that includes six levels for a player who must defend through the actions of Ervi and Eri, the dark adventures of Padi, Gramino and Humile.

Aphids Attack is an educational video game for mobile devices, which aims to describe the ecological interactions between organisms and the environment, using as a model agricultural pests and biological controllers of agroecosystems.
