Instead of building new life-forms from genetic bits falling to Earth in a meteor, Darkspore picks up its story after widespread DNA experiments have gone terribly wrong and infected the universe with a mutating virus. ![]() Its construction, along with its designer’s self-described status as an “agnostic atheist,” prompted me to speculate that ” some will see as a creative and involving apologetic for Darwinian evolution” while ” others may decide its ludicrous ‘process’ and wacky creatures diminish the idea that brainless blobs can somehow come up with a game-plan for world domination.” One thing was more clear: The game lived up to its E10+ rating.ĭarkspore keeps the pseudo-evolution theme and pushes the rating to a T by adding fierce firefights between glowing-eyed critters with hacking Wolverine-like claws (and many other such meanies and beasties).
