Joanna Mueller writes: "Sometimes, nature takes an orderly and structured path towards ensuring the survival of a species. The rest of the time, nature has to take what it can get, such is the premise of Niche – A Genetics Survival Game."
Strange and specific simulations and strategy games have always been appealing. Niche provides a full game that explores a biological, population-based form of survival. Though it lacks in-depth explanation to push the genetic mechanic, it creates a fun world to explore and survive.
Remember Spore? Remember how it didn't seem to satisfy that part of you that wanted to control the evolution of an entire species? Well Niche - A genetics survival game by Stray Fawn Studio succeeds where Spore failed!
When has putting a mechanic called Horny Males in a cute game about genetics ever been a good idea?
Cool idea, hopefully it's better than Spore,
