Evo Cell

It's time to develop! One of the many pieces of evidence to support evolution is that of embryonic development. Take your zygote through its steps of development by collecting power ups to grow your embryo and avoid enemies that will cause you to lose life. Pay close attention to the similarities that each of the vertebrates exhibit in these early stages.

Missing Links

You get to be a paleontologist. Fossils are quite rare but you'll be lucky enough to find a few. Once you've dug through the dig sites, you'll take your finds to the lab and assemble the fossils to view the evolutionary lineage of some common animals. You'll learn a little bit about how the animals evolved and what their ancestors were like. You might even make a new discovery!
