Evolution: New World

Evolution: New World tells the story of how animals of all shapes and sizes develop and evolve. The game lets players take control of the evolutionary process across an entire ecosystem and create populations of species competing for scarce resources. In Evolution: New World, you create animals and give them traits essential to surviving in an ever-changing environment.  Evolution: New World is an updated and extended version of the basic Evolution: The Origin of Species game. It includes both well-known animal traits and new ones, complete with refined descriptions and colorful illustrations. Food is now generated using Area cards, and animals can use shelter to hide from predators. Over the course of six Epochs, your successful animals evolve and procure food, while poorly adapted species become extinct or fall prey to predators. At the end of the game, victory points are awarded for your surviving animals and the traits they possess. The player with the most points wins the game.
