Life Inc. — From a Single Spark to a Living Galaxy Begin as the simplest spark of life and guide your species across millions of years of evolution, civilization, and cosmic catastrophe. Choose your world, shape your organism, and decide how life adapts, thrives, and conquers the stars. Every choice writes a different history. CHOOSE YOUR WORLD Settle lush Earth-like planets, frozen moons, radioactive wastelands, volcanic hellscapes, and more. Each world type changes everything — resources, climate, the threats you'll face, and which species thrive there. Worlds unlock one by one as you master the last, so the galaxy opens up as you grow. EVOLVE WITH A DEEP PERK TREE Climb a branching tree of Evolutionary, Technological, and Social perks. Rank up your favorite traits for stacking bonuses, unlock species-specific abilities, and discover synergies that turn a fragile colony into an unstoppable civilization. Hive minds, silicon life, and other archetypes each play completely differently. SURVIVE GRAND THREATS Asteroids, supervolcanoes, pandemics, alien armadas, and gamma-ray bursts threaten everything you've built. Read the warning signs, brace your population, and battle world-ending disasters in fast, fun mini-games where every tap counts. Famine, disease, and war can erase billions — adapt or go extinct. GROW FROM MILLIONS TO TRILLIONS Watch your population explode from thousands to millions, billions, and beyond — each milestone reshaping your resource needs and the challenges of a modern era. Balance growth, technology, and survival across the ages. REACH THE STARS Your ultimate goal: ascend beyond your homeworld, reach a new planet, and terraform it into a thriving home for your species.
