Cell Lab: Evolution Sandbox

[lajoswinkler]

In my not so humble opinion, this is an underrated game with only 3.7 points scored on Google Play, but deserves at least 4.2.

It's a quite difficult one, I must admit. I've been playing it for months now. It requires thinking on several levels at once and everything you do induces changes to the point of chaos. Try it out, you won't regret it.

That game is really, REALLY hard, even with all those tutorials, it depends on timing, luck and placement as much as designing. I unlocked all the levels but with skipping some and I only managed to complete 80% of it maybe? Me not understand multicells.

I got to the thirteenth level and now I'm stuck. Help a brother.

Im sorrt but it was long ago (two months) and I cant say that I remember anything. There are wikis and youtube videos that can help. Maybe if you tell me the objective Ill try to remember...?

Really, you have to "cheat" and exploit precision placing while frozen.

Honestly, it doesn't seem that great. You really rely on luck far too much; or using multiple creatures

[lajoswinkler]

So far luck helped 2/12 times. I'm having problems with the Infestation level. All I get is typical population fluctuation.

I've passed the 13th level and now I'm baffled by the 14th. :3

Is there a way to just hack-unlock all the levels?

Not that I know of.

This is not an advert for it, please don't report me, but I saw a few people on the forums saying that the bacteria stage in SPORE was the best stage (which is something I agree with) and I think I've found something even better.

So the game is for android and it's called "Cell Lab: Evolution Sandbox". It's a bit hard in the beginning, but IMO it's amazing once you learn it and is also pretty realistic, it seems. Go check it out and rate it higher than it is, because the game totally deserves it.

I played this maybe 6 months ago. While the idea was great, the user interface seemed to actively fight me on every turn so I stopped playing after an hour or two.

I played this game some time ago too, it is fun, but then there is that one level you can not finish. It can get very frustrating at times.

Here is one more thread

Oh, ok. Mods, feel free to lock this one then.

[monstah]

Well, the other post was old and I hadn't seen it, so thanks for bringing it up again anyway.

Oh, wait, Android only. Oh, well

Two threads about the same game have been merged.

I've created a cool predator today. It munches down other cells with its mouth in the front and spawns baby cells out the back. Shame the genomes can be shared via emails only.

I have also unlocked all the cell types up to Neurocytes. These ones are really complicated though.

The game is beta now and you can help testing the prerelease. It's on v98 and available on Google store. The creator added more cells which include gametes that make reproduction much more interesting.

I recently evolved (by pure chance) a Hydra-like organism that can repair its own mutated cells.
