Cute and good arcade title from the early years of PC

The Good
The game has quite original idea, 6 different levels with 6 different gameplays, every level represents one evolutionary form (amoeba, tadpole, rodent, beaver, gorilla and human). Every levels plays well, graphics is ok for the time and original idea makes that the game stands out a bit compared to other games from that year (even if it's not so famous).

The Bad
I tried to play with keyboard and it was quite difficult (especially very first amoeba level), but with controller (easy to simulate joystick in DOSBox) it was much better. So I don't recommend to play without controller, it will be more frustrating.

The Bottom Line
Quite sleeper arcade hit, not so known, but very solid.
