This is a funny little game that I found out about by accident.

I was flipping through channels late one night and caught the end of a program that featured two unknown programmers receiving an award for their breakthrough game, Darwinia.

I downloaded the demo and promptly fell in love. It combines my favorite characteristics of video games: strategy, logic problem, interesting story…and being God. Well, god-like. If you liked Populus and Lemmings, this is a game for you. This is a thinking person’s game…not a blast everything in sight and ask questions later type game.

Definitely tryout the demo, it is free and highly addictive!

I am personally thrilled I actually have realized I have something to contribute to the gaming thread!

My cousin plays this game, and I overheard the music from it and discovered the artist who did it has some really great music. Hes called Trash80 http://trash80.net/

I started playing again for fun and man is this addictive. I’ll kiss the wife good night, blink and two hours have gone by.

There is something to be said for blast everything in site games though! :wink:
