I didn't expect this game to be much when I heard about, but I decided to try it out anyway. Starting with the cell stage was fun, it's pretty much a top down roamer where you eat meat and/or plants so that you can eventually evolve and go onto land. After the cell stage is the creature stage where you can either befriend or cause the creatures there to go extinct, giving you points to evolve further. After this stage is the final stage of evolution and your species gains sentience. You go onto the tribal stage which is pretty much an rts where you yet again either befriend everyone or make them go extinct. The next stage is the civilization stage which has the same premise as the last one except it's a bit more complicated. You can either take them over religiously making the people convert and the city surrender to you, you can buy their city from them using trade, or you can conquer them the old fashioned way. After that is the space age which is my favorite. Exploring the galaxy is a dream in this stage, everything you have done in the game up until this point effects what your civilization is at this point. So there are many reasons to replay this game over and over again. I give it a ten out of ten for it's good graphics and the amazingly diverse creature creator, along with the diversity in game play it brings to the table.
