EcoGenesis

EcoGenesis is a turn-based 2D ecosystem simulator. You start with a single-cell organism, then unlock and craft creatures while balancing the environment. Work toward one of three victory conditions: Biomass, Crafting Creatures or Completing Missions.

Build an ecosystem

You manage 14 different resources to craft and upgrade animals in your environment. The ecosystem has five key traits—water, foliage, herbivores, carnivores and temperature—and each affects it in a different way. Creatures have individual stats that determine their environmental impact, the resources they provide each turn and their crafting cost. Most also have abilities to consider.

There are over 100 animal species, from land-dwellers such as bears and elephants to sea creatures such as blue whales and orcas. The roster also includes more than 10 dinosaur species, including the Rex and the Brontosaurus. Each organism has three hand-drawn sprites, one for each level, and every resource has its own hand-drawn sprite.

Weather and events

Six weather conditions range from hurricanes to solar flares. Events can bring a deadly flood or rains that benefit the riverbanks. The game also includes over 1,000 quiz questions corresponding to the different resource types.

Missions and achievements

EcoGenesis features over 30 missions and over 30 achievements.
