E.V.O.: Search for Eden

E.V.O.: Search for Eden Description

<p>the storyline of <strong>e.v.o.: search for eden</strong> follows the same patterns as modern evolution theories. the players first controls a prehistoric sea organism, and fights to gain evolution points with which he can improve his fish’s body parts and upgrade his attack/defense abilities. the gameplay is not completely linear, which means that certain choices of paths and stages will affect the player’s success. <strong>play e.v.o.: search for eden online!</strong></p><p>the game is composed of a series of stages, in which the sea organism slowly evolves into an amphibian, and later a land-only creature. the physical changes are fairly scientifically accurate which gives the game a semi-educational purpose as well.</p><p>e.v.o.: search for eden is based on the japan-only computer game 46 okunen monogatari: the shinkaron. while the basic premise of the game is the same, there are significant changes in gameplay and the layout of the game world.</p><p>in the computer release, the battles against other creatures were turn-based; here, the combat is real time, which effectively turns this version into an action rpg. the stages, while retaining similar themes, have a completely different layout. side-scrolling view prevails over the original’s top-down perspective. there are also boss battles that were absent in the original version.</p><p>character building (“evolution”) is also different. instead of distributing evolution points into four parameters, the player now basically “buys” upgrades, which have a fixed “price”. the player is able to acquire such upgrades for the creature’s body parts (jaws, neck, body, etc.), raising their parameters and becoming stronger.</p><p>story elements, friendly characters (npcs), and quest-based structure that characterized the original game have been reduced and/or omitted in this release.</p>
