Over thousands of generations the peaceful Darwinians
have been evolving in a beautiful digital world, but now their whole way
of life is under threat from a devastating computer virus that has infected
their world and decimated their numbers. Without your protection they don't
stand a chance and it’s up to you to lead them into battle to recapture
their lost world! Once you've proven your command ability, take your Darwinian
army online and challenge your friends to strategic combat, as tribes of
Darwinians slaughter one another in a desperate struggle for supremecy.

In 2006 we won three out of five of the IGF awards for Darwinia for the upcoming Xbox Live Arcade Service. Our intention was for a quick and direct port of Darwinia that we would release before DEFCON hit the streets. Things didn’t quite work out like that and in the following three years we developed a whole new multiplayer game (Multiwinia), re-worked and harmonised the control and User Interface systems, crafted new tutorials and added cool Xbox features like Avatar Awards. In short (and sometimes against our will) we reviewed the entire game and tweaked and tuned the systems and components until we achieved the best possible version of Darwinia – The Director’s Cut if you will.

If you know Darwinia / Multiwinia or even if you simply like the look of what you see - why not head over to Xbox.com and rate the game.
Discuss the game on the Xbox 360 forums here.
