From the depths of the stone age to space wars of the future, walk all the way of the evolution of mankind and defeat the enemies in the new game, “The Wars 2 Evolution”. At the first glance, the idea of the game is simple and trivial – to destroy the enemy’s base. But it may not be as easy as it seems. To successfully accomplish the mission, you must think as a military strategist. Choose your game tactics at each level and age. And only the right balance between defense and attack will give you a chance to win. Engage super weapons and gain a tactical advantage over the enemy. Destroy the enemy’s units and wipe the enemy’s base. For that, you will gain the knowledge for studying units and buildings of the next age. The gold obtained along the course of the game can be spent on valiant soldiers who would not let you down in battle and on weapons for defending your base. The faster you gather all the knowledge and move on to the next age, the better are your chances to be the first who delivers the crushing blow to the enemy. But hurry up, the enemy is not standing still either and is preparing an insidious plan to wipe your base. Remember, each age has its unique attack units, defense weapons and special weapons of mass destruction, using which you can cause a significant damage to the enemy. Complete all nine levels of the game to become a “Master of War”.

Celene and her brave teammates have already earn a reputation for themselves: this is why they were chosen to be the first group to explore the neighbouring continent of beastmen. The task will be dangerous though, as the continent is currently plagued by the same orc threat the elven lands had to fight against not too long ago. Of course nobody is expecting you to defeat the orc army single-handedly. Our elves will do what they do best: prepare the path for the main forces, explore, distract the enemy and cut their supply lines. But there's something strange about these woods... the orcs might not be the only threat, and the beastmen are too preoccupied with fighting them off to come and greet Celene. Or are they?
