16-Bit Gems #2 – E.V.O.: Search for Eden

Very interesting, hadn’t seen this game before. Seems like an early Spore-idea of sorts.

Derek, I feel you. It sux to think games like this are old school obscurities. Born in 82′, and this game was a breath of fresh air back when games were, while still novel, a rote genre for the most part, excepting the classics. Please give this a try. Think of it like a recomendation from your older brother/sister that you don’t immediately get why they recommended it. I am afraid however the amount of experimentation needed to see the depth of the game may be lost on an even more “entertained” generation than when it was created. Read a book, please there is so much out there too learn that the last generation failed to tell you. I recommend  ”The Underground History of American Education” by John Taylor Gatto but I digress.
