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

-Watering hole running dry? Evolve a long neck to reach food in the trees.
-Staring down a Carnivore? Develop a hard shell to fend off an attack.
-Evolve up the food chain to become a the most successful species.

TRY BEFORE YOU BUY!
Unlike most board games, evolution lets you try the game for free first. Freeplay includes the tutorial, the easy AI opponents, five campaign levels, and 1 multiplayer game a day. Pay a one-time cost to unlock unlimited functionality such as the Weekly Challenges, the Hard & Expert AI, Pass and Play, the full Campaign, Private Multiplayer Games and Asynchronous Games, and unlimited Matchmade Games.

CHALLENGING AND ADDICTIVE
Do you evolve protection from Carnivores, or find a way to eat if there is no Food in the Watering Hole? The ecosystem is constantly changing, and you’ve got to figure out what your opponents are up to.

INTERACTIVE TUTORIAL
Our friendly professor will guide you from one watering hole to the next on our learn-as-you-play tutorial, showing you how to survive before sending you off to make a name for yourself. Hone your skill as you progress from lowly Biology Intern to competing for the Nobel Prize!

EXPLORE THE CAMPAIGN
Explore the mysteries of Evolution Island and discover distinct Boss opponents. As you move through the campaign you’ll unlock new “Apex Species” that are masters of specific strategies; defeat them to add them to your menu of single-player opponents.

MATCH MADE MULTIPLAYER
One click and the game will match you with players of similar skill in a fast paced online game. Make friends in the game and set up custom games, or rank up in the ongoing seasonal tournaments and see how far you can go.

ENDLESS REPLAYS, ONE PRICE
This isn't a collectible card game, the full set of cards are included in the base game. Thousands of possible species combinations evolve from 17 unique trait cards, meaning no two games are ever the same.

PACE & POLISH
With a smooth user interface and fast, informative animations, Evolution was built to satisfy a quick fix of intense strategic battles. Easy to learn, almost impossible to master, one game and you’ll find yourself addicted. Evolution isn’t just a top tier strategy game – it’s a whole new animal.

Good but unbalanced

This game is a good alternative to the cardboard, but not as good as I wanted.
At some levels I was freaking out, I mean levels 10, and “especially” level 18, when there are lots of hungry herbivores. At one of my 10 replays there even was no card such as “fat tissue” and “cooperation” during the whole play! These are essential card for this game, and instead of them I got only defensive or attacking cards, when my opponents got all the cards they need to win. I didn’t even “have a chance” to win that play! It’s unfair! How do you imagine such thing happens in real cardboard when my opponent get all herbivores cards and I get none! How would you explain this!
And I was playing at normal mode, not brutal.
So I advise you to add some “helping” — if the player is herbivore — give him herbivore cards, if carnivore - then carnivore cards, and in between defensive cards. Otherwise it’s not fair at all!
Although I’ve completed the whole campaign, the level 18 made me really angry that I was thinking about money request!

Also, it seems to me that carnivores somewhat prefer to attack the player than other AI, so the player won’t win! Add some randomness to the carnivore attacks, otherwise it’s also unfair.

And one more thing — add a local multiplayer — I mean the ability to play with friends on “one” screen. It’s a cardboard game ripoff, what you were thinking about by not including this feature at the release? Why can’t all 4 players play on one iPad?

So, is it worth it 8 (or 10)$ now — no, with such unfair balance and no local multiplayer.
Will it be worth it after fixing this? — yes, definitely. It’s a good game, and AI is smart and fun to play with (if it’s not cheating, because it’s doing some things that wouldn’t be possible in real cardboard even with a skilled players)

Multiplayer is awful

In multiplayer every third game is stuck. If you WIN a game, frequently your score is DECREASED. Sometimes when you lose, it actually increases. If you quit stuck game your score is decreased again. And this happens for 2 months already, devs are clearly scripting kiddies.
