What did others think of Darwinia?

Like I said, fun to try, gets boring real quick. I don't think you'll get a different answer. It also applies to the strategical layer of the game. Innovative, but not much depth so leading your Darwinians quickly stops being cerebral and becomes a matter of reflex.

I'm kinda surprised no-one copied Introversion's concepts yet. A hacking game built on the same concept as Uplink but with more diversity and longevity would sure get extremely popular real quick. And since there's no need for 3D graphics, such a game would be cheap to develop too.

So anyone want a game of Defcon then? It supports 6 players in one match with a spectator option for those that just want to watch or didn't make it in time.

I may give it a try, I only played the tutorial but it's pretty obvious what I should do.

Yup just build your radar on the edges of your territory, next to a few gun emplacements so that they don't get nuked and you become blind. Have your ships in fighter/bomber mode with 1 or 2 in sub detection and that's it basically.
