► IT’S AN EVOLUTION REVOLUTION! Dive into the primordial soup and get eating in this beautiful and entertaining survival simulator where your goal is to climb the food chain one organism at a time. Start the game as a small fish in a vast ocean and chomp your way through eons of history on the long rocky road to civilization. There are plenty more fish in the sea, and some of them are a whole lot bigger than you, so while you’re chowing down on your prey, just make sure you don’t end up as somebody else’s dinner. Only the fittest will survive, so activate your animal intuition, engage your reptile brain, get in touch with your inner caveman and watch your back in this Darwinian adventure game that’s red in tooth and claw but provides hours of relaxing evolutionary fun. ► SOMETHING TO CHEW ON… • The evolution’s here: progress through entire geological ages in the vast Paleozoic ocean, growing from a tiny little primitive sprat into a mighty predatory shark, turning turtle, really coming out of your shell, and emerging on dry land as a beautiful lizard. • Master survival in a new environment and you’ll soon be going the way of the dinosaurs, before you move up another class to go nuts as a squirrel, take on the mammoth task of being a mammoth, and pass the test to see if you’re a good, average, or truly great ape. • Feeling a little more human at last? You’re not quite finished with evolution just yet, work through your neanderthal attitudes, take out your caveman aggression as a hunter, and finally finish the game by settling down to a little farming as the paragon of animals and the undisputed chamption of the food chain. • Eleven stages of evolution with a total of 81 levels in the game, each with a new twist on the satisfying core gameplay. • Complete levels with high scores to unlock exotic evolutionary missteps including mermaids, unicorns, and dragons for even more foraging fun. • Simple but stylish graphics with beautiful creature designs and stunningly varied landscapes that bring to life the different ages of the history of the planet right there on your screen. ► PLUMB THE MYSTERY OF PRE-HISTORY Want to see the origin of species in action?

Verdict

Tappy Crab also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 2 months). Hyper Evolution's advantage is ratings volume (43K vs 19). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
