An interactive game asks you to catch a virtual fly before its simulated escape circuit fires.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-12 issue.

Field notes

The game reduces a fruit-fly escape response to a short reaction challenge: players drag to position themselves, release to swat, and receive a reaction-time result across three attempts. Its explanatory diagram names LPLC2, LC4, and the Giant Fiber, while the page identifies the simulation as simplified rather than a full neural reconstruction. Scores can be attached to a public nickname and placed on a global leaderboard without email, phone number, or password.
