STEM
GeneForge
Extract DNA, map inheritance with Punnett squares, simulate CRISPR gene editing, and debate bioethics — explore genetics and biotechnology from Mendel's peas to modern gene therapy through hands-on virtual lab experiments.
Meet your mentor
Every Spark & Anvil app has a friendly mentor character that demonstrates, praises, and patiently scaffolds learning. On-device AI personalizes the mentor's responses to your kid's progress — never connecting to a server, never collecting data.
#29B6F6 GeneForge is a virtual genetics laboratory where you become a junior scientist! You will extract DNA from fruit cells, predict what baby organisms look like using Punnett squares, simulate cutting-edge CRISPR gene editing, and discuss real bioethics questions. It is hands-on science right on your de
What's inside
DNA Extraction Lab
Follow step-by-step instructions to extract DNA from virtual fruit cells. You will crush, filter, and isolate DNA strands just like a real scientist. Watch the
Punnett Square Builder
Predict what traits baby organisms will have by filling in Punnett squares. Cross a tall plant with a short plant and see what happens. Learn about dominant and
CRISPR Simulator
Use a virtual gene-editing tool to change an organism's DNA. Pick which gene to edit, make your cut, and see what changes. This is the same technology real scie
Bioethics Board
Discuss big questions about genetics with your AI mentor. Should we edit genes to prevent diseases? What about changing how people look? There are no wrong answ
How GeneForge handles your kid's data
