Where Curiosity Meets Competition
Aileron Games makes playful, science-educational games that make learning feel like winning. From DNA Chess to Science RPG — games built for curious minds.
Our Games
Each game is a collision between scientific curiosity and game design obsession. Some are ready to play. Some are in the lab. All are worth watching.
A pun-fueled card game where your wits are the only weapon. Think you can bear the wordplay? Prepare to suffer — brilliantly.
Chess reimagined through the lens of genetics. Pieces evolve, mutate, and adapt. Every match is a different organism.
Play as history’s greatest scientists. Battle scientific villains. Unlock the universe. Full character roster of heroes and enemies below.
A negotiation and trading game where every deal has a catch and no one leaves the table without making enemies.
RPG where technology and magic are indistinguishable. Cast spells with circuit diagrams. Power your staff with solar panels.
A tangram puzzle game built around geometric principles. Stack shapes to grow your tree. Geometry was never this alive.
A particle physics gambling game. Quarks, leptons, and bosons as chips. The house always wins — unless you know your Standard Model.
A resource management game where players trade and convert energy forms. Kinetic, thermal, nuclear — everything is currency.
A procedurally-generated narrative exploration game set in the deep ocean. Every playthrough discovers a different ocean story.

About Aileron
Aileron Studios was founded on a simple belief: the best way to understand science is to play with it. Not read about it. Not watch videos about it. Play with it.
Every Aileron game embeds scientific concepts into mechanics, not just aesthetics. In Science RPG, Heisenberg is dangerous because you can never be sure where he is. In DNA Chess, pieces evolve because that’s how genetics works. In Subatomic, the rules change because particles do.
Based in Richmond, VA. Powered by curiosity.
