The Lab

    Evo's Net Race

    Evo carries your holiday photos all around the world, from Lith to the cloud. Jump over viruses, duck under phishing hooks and grab the things that really protect you. After every stage Evo gives you a tip.

    To the start line

    Six stages

    On your marks, get set, go!

    Three hearts per stage. A virus costs a heart, antivirus gives one back. The more bits you grab, the higher your score.

    Evo's Net Race

    Evo carries your holiday photos from Lith to the cloud, all around the world. On the way, viruses, phishing hooks and fake buttons lie in wait. Jump, duck and grab the good stuff!

    Space, arrow up or a tap: jump (twice for a double jump). Arrow down or a swipe down: duck. P: pause.

    Power-ups

    Power-ups in the game, best friends in real life

    Everything that helps Evo helps you too. This is how it works outside the game.

    Antivirus

    In the game, one heart back. In real life you keep it switched on and up to date, and it catches a lot of junk before you notice.

    VPN

    Open Wi-Fi at the airport or in a café? A VPN or your own phone's hotspot keeps snoopers out.

    Two-step verification

    A code on your phone as well as your password. If someone steals your password, the door still stays shut.

    Updates

    Updates patch the holes that intruders crawl through. Turn on automatic updates on your phone, computer and router.

    Password manager

    A long password of its own for every account, and you only need to remember one. Then a password thief gets one at most.

    Backup

    Your time machine. If ransomware locks everything or your laptop falls, you put everything back. Remember 3-2-1.

    For parents and teachers

    Play, then talk

    • Six short stages, handy for the classroom or the kitchen table.
    • Every stage ends with a tip you can talk about together: what would you do?
    • No account, no adverts, nothing is sent. We keep your best score only in your own browser, if you agree.
    • Calm mode or reduced motion on? Then Evo runs a bit slower and no sparks fly.
