Recommended for sure.

An oldie, but still fun. I love maxing out the armour and letting the little green guys blaze away.

One of my favourite games ever.

A fantastic game with a variety of intuitive controls and great gameplay overall, contrary to what people say of Darwinia costing only $10 I payed £30 in England when it came out for my boxed edition of the game and I have no regrets buying it at that cost, as well as buying it again from a recent humble bundle, stunning game.

One of a kind

This game is so different from anything else out there, that if you have only 10 bucks in this decade to buy a game, fork it out for this one. I liked the pre-update control system better, worth to give both versions a shot. A gem, it will always be on my top 5 list. I truly wish the Introspective guys will come up with something at least comparable to Darwinia.

Highly underrated!

This game deserves more attention though it can be hard to pick up on controls..
