Species Artificial Life, Real Evolution v0.14.2.2 - early access

Species Artificial Life, Real Evolution – is an evolution simulator that lets you create, destroy, observe, and tinker with life as it undergoes an endless, challenging process of refinement. Built from the very first principles of evolutionary science, the game emphasizes three core concepts:

•

Variation: Every creature is uniquely defined by its genes, ensuring each individual is one-of-a-kind.

Mutation: Offspring are slightly modified, randomly altered versions of their parents, introducing new traits into the gene pool.

Natural Selection: The environment plays a decisive role in every creature’s struggle for survival, determining which traits are advantageous and pushing the evolutionary progress forward.

Whether you prefer to study the unfolding tree of life from a distance or take a more hands-on role, the choice is yours. You can simply watch life and death play out naturally, or you can get involved by using the nursery—a safe, isolated area where you can experiment with the genetic makeup of your species. Use rovers to decide which creatures feed and which starve, or trigger global events like ice ages and massive floods to challenge the most vulnerable species.

Every evolutionary step is recorded in intricate detail, allowing you to truly tell your story. With tools such as the clade diagram to track evolutionary lineages, a satellite map to see where species thrive, a web of life to analyze genetic diversity, and comprehensive creature inspection tools, you can dive deep into the evolution of life and witness the saga of survival and adaptation unfold before your eyes.
