"Species: Artificial Life, Real Evolution" is a simulation game where players create and evolve unique species in a dynamic ecosystem. Observing and manipulating various factors such as genetics, environment, and behavior, players can watch as their creatures adapt and survive in a real-time evolutionary process. With countless possibilities and a sandbox-style gameplay, this game offers a fascinating look into the world of evolutionary biology.

"Ecosystem is a single-player strategy game with high-quality graphics and approximately 23 hours of playtime. The game's unique feature is the simulation of evolving virtual creatures, whose bodies, behaviors, and nervous systems are all determined by their synthetic DNA, which can be modified by the player. These creatures evolve on their own to adapt to the physically-simulated ocean environment created by the player."

"Thrive is a single-player open-world game where you guide the evolution of a single-celled organism on an alien planet, starting from the Last Universal Common Ancestor. Survive in the environment, adapt your species through mutations, and compete with other emerging species in a population dynamics-driven simulation. Gameplay involves both individual cell survival and editing your species' traits to ensure its success."

"The Bibites" is a simulation game where players observe evolution in action. Each bibite, a small critter, starts with basic genes and no behavior, but mutations can lead to new brain connections and behaviors, such as movement or food consumption, enabling reproduction and energy gain. As time passes, complex behaviors like hunting and stockpiling emerge, with features including procedural sprites, self-awareness, pheromones, material simulation, and grabbing/throwing.

From an uninhabited planet in space to an ecosystem full of life. In Planetary Life you will be able to shape a planet in the purest Sandbox Simulation style, playing with its mountains, seas and even its climate, to create the perfect habitat to harbor life.

The Sapling is a simulation game where you design your own plants and animals, and put them in a world together. Or you turn on random mutations, and see what evolution does to your ecosystem!

Space Engineers 2 offers a fully playable survival experience where you can explore diverse biomes, mine resources, and build structures on destructible terrain. Manage your engineer’s health, power, and resources while crafting tools and establishing basic production chains. Utilize advanced building tools like holographic projections to design and construct ships, rovers, and bases as you begin colonizing the Almagest system.

Vilmonic is a pixel-art artificial life simulator where you protect and breed unique creatures and experiment with natural and artificial selection. Each creature's body and function is determined by its evolving genetic code, with pixels and body shape affecting hydration, nutrient use, movement, and perception. Your goal is to bring life back from the brink of extinction and uncover the secrets of the past.

"FantasyMapSimulator is a single-player historical strategy game with around 2 hours of playtime. Create and customize your own fantasy world, watch as nations diplomatically interact, develop, and wage wars over hundreds to thousands of years.
