Play Overview
What's unusual, apart from the strange cylindrical impending doom, is the scope and breadth of the world. Like the classic evolution game, Spore, it's a vast land full of unique intelligent animals, real-time world destruction, and organic exploration with puzzles designed to encourage you to overcome hazards, enemies and challenges in unique ways.
To succeed, you need to find other creatures to band together with, learn about the world around you, evolve to meet the challenges and mutate to obtain new traits that might help.
The world is teeming with over 30 handcrafted creatures that you need to get to know and learn how to utilise their behaviours to your advantage. This genetic pool combines with over 50 mutations that grant new abilities.

Age Ratings
Rated for younger players in Australia. Rated Parental Guidance (PG) for Mild Fantasy Themes, Mild Fantasy Violence.
Skill Level
8+ year-olds usually have the required skill to enjoy this game. Still, it's important for parents and guardians to consider the maturity required to process the game content. You need to be able to cope with the strange world and find a way to make sense of it. This can work well for quite young players, because experimentation and repetition is a key part to progressing. However, the later stages of the game need more strategy skill and can frustrate youngsters who enjoyed the earlier stages.
