A downloadable game

Earth has become a hot and dry place. The struggle for food and water has led to a breakdown of civilization and caused devastating wars and destruction. From the ashes of modern society, the survivors have organized themselves into tribal structures and are fighting each other for survival in the barren wastelands.

Devolution - Global Warming is a real-time strategy game that requires quick tactical decisions and a good long-term strategy.

Your goal is to unite the survivors of the apocalypse. But there are others who are trying to do the same. To win, you have to defeat all your opponents or at least stay alive longer...

System Requirements:

This version of  game was created for MS-DOS.  It can be run in MS-DOS either on a real machine or an in emulator like DOSBox.

Great game, addictive and simple but challenging gameplay. I just predordered the DOS-version on Polyplay. :)

Thank you for your feedback. It's always nice to see when someone enjoys what we do. And especially that the extra effort for the DOS version was worth it :-)

very good
