NATURAL SELECTION IN ACTION
In the game Evolution, you adapt your species to survive, and stay one step ahead of opponents.

Ratings and Reviews
Excellent implementation of the card game
The physical version of this game has been around for a few years now and is a favourite amongst my friends and family. The premise of the game is to create and evolve new creatures. Points are scored based on the amount of food you eat, number of animals and how many traits they developed.
Each round you have a hand of cards which you can use to create new animals, increase their population or body mass and to determine their traits and characteristics eg: burrowing, tree climbing, horns. Most traits allow you defend yourself against carnivores, gather more food or become a carnivore and hunt other players animals.
Turning into a carnivore is a useful strategy if food is running low in the watering hole but it often needs to be well-timed as waiting too long could mean that players are able to defend against the carnivores and you run the risk of becoming extinct.
Evolution is a fast playing game, one that has a number of accessible strategies. Even if you get a poor hand, there are always options available to do other things like increase population, body size or create new creatures - so luck is minimal.
Note this game has nothing to do with the 1990s PC Game, it is a digital implementation of a card game originally released in physical form in 2014.
Thank you North Star for this great implemention.
Surprisingly good for a simple concept
I’ve heard my gaming friends talk about this but it never really appealed to me; saw it on the App Store and decided to see what it was about and I was very pleasantly surprised.
Once you start to understand the nuances of the abilities then the game becomes an interesting balance between what you’d like to do and what you’re able (available actions are determined by random card draw) but at the same time being mindful of what other players are up to.
I think I’ve sussed how to be an effective herbivore; now to try the carnivorous approach....
Family share unsupported
Really lovely game. Artwork is beautiful and the depth of strategy is very satisfying and challenging. Would love to be able to play with family members like with a purchased board game but as the full game with multiplayer feature is a in-app purchase means all family players buying the full version.
Tempted to buy the board game now though. Really lovely game
