About

Probandle

Probandle is a daily diagnosis game for clinical genetics, inspired by Wordle and Doctordle.

Behind it is an almost fully automated pipeline: cases are built from clinical facts extracted from four public databases (the HPO, Orphanet, MONDO and GenCC), drafted by AI inside a set of game and validation rules, and reviewed by a person before they can be scheduled.

The cases are simplified for the sake of the game, so they may contain inaccuracies.

Help review the cases

Every case is read before it goes live — so far, by one person. If you work in clinical genetics and want to review cases, email verify@probandle.com.

How to play

Name the disorder in six guesses. Each wrong guess reveals the next clue.

Type a disorder and pick it from the list, then press Guess.
Stuck? Leave the box empty and press Skip. It costs a guess and reveals the next clue.

A new case every day at 05:00 Amsterdam time.
