MUMBAI: Hyderabad-based 7 Seas Technologies announced the launch of a casual online game on Swine Flu, a pandemic that have killed several people in Mexico.

Named as Swine Flu Killer, the game is available on the company's online gaming portal www.onlinerealgames.com.

To play the game a player needs to vaccinate as many patients as possible in time, kill the virus, save patients and become a Swine Flu Killer. The more quicker a gamer's movements are while clicking on the patients, the more points they gain.

"Our idea is to come up with more such games with newer concepts and provide entertainment to our gamers through our online gaming portal," said 7 Seas Technologies Limited MD Maruti Shanker.

Earlier the company had created online games such as The Big Fight (based on the US presidential elections) and Operation Big Bang (on the research being carried out by European scientists on the Big Bang theory), an official statement said.
