Adapt or Perish

This is more than just an odd looking strategy game, it is a strategy platform. Genetically engineer amorphic creatures & buildings, in real time, in an endlessly open world that adapts to your playstyle. Share, and even battle your designs. How much will they be worth?

Adapt or Perish provides a freshly unique single-player experience. Read the FAQ for more information in the discussion boards!

Yes, there is building bases, ordering units & explosions -- but you get to do so much more, like change units & buildings on the fly, rescue lost units, hunt Overseers & see just how high of a Market Offer you can accept.

Enemies are procedurally generated, as is the world, so no two games will be alike. Difficulty is adjusted in real time to provide newbies room to learn & veterans a challenge.
