No idea what this website is (Routes?), but they have some fun science themed (loosely science based) Flash games, like SNEEZE!
They also have 'DNA Hero'-- Guitar Hero with ACTG sequences, and 'Ginger Dawn'-- increase the frequency of that recessive gene, baby! LOL! And it looks like there are a few more games in the works... gonna have to investigate this site more.

British TV, baby! YEAH!
Like American TV, but with IQ.
Oh, man! SNEEZE is very reminiscent of that soul-sucking Chain Rxn game that's going around on Facebook.
