Description
Evolution centers around Mag Launcher, a jaunty young man with a mop of spiky red hair and a cybernetic frame strapped to his back. The CYFRAME is a large device from which a cartoonish white hand can protrude and whack enemies during battles, or it can be used for such things as zipping down a rope to escape a collapsing ruin, as shown in the opening movie. He is joined by the mysterious and silent Linear Cannon, a blond waif with huge pink eyes and strange powers. His faithful butler Gre Nade, the foxy Pepper Box, or the strange, small, and creepy kid Chain Gun can make up the third member of your party. The plot centers around Mag and company's excursions into ruins scattered throughout the Northrop Continent as they scour these huge multilevel dungeons for treasure and get rewarded at the mysterious Society that is devoted to these explorations.  Just who is the enigmatic Linear, and where did she come from? Why is Eugen, the commander of a huge military force, so interested in her? What does she have to do with the CYFRAME Evolutia? And just what happened to Mag's father?

Like Grandia by Grobyc 07 Aug 2007
IF YOU LIKED GRANDIA FOR PSX YOUL'LL LIKE THIS BUT IF YOU HATED IT YOU'LL MOST DEFENITLY HATE THIS GAME EVEN MORE.


There's two things I love about this game. by John Roberts 30 Apr 2007
There's two things I love about this game.
One is the gorgeous graphics. SEGA once billed the Dreamcast's
Graphics processing power as "graphics that give reality a
run for its money", and despite the cartoonish appearance of the
characters, this game really makes the truth of that statement
apparent. The other thing I love is the marvelous story and the
quirky characters that inhabit it. This is what makes RPGs fun.

That said, there's two things I hate about this game.
One, most of it is spent in dungeons, which almost reduces
the game from an RPG to something like a first-person shooter.
Two, extending the idea a bit, you have to do an inordinate amount
of "power-up" fighting to be able to beat the final boss, and it
makes the final chapter of the story very clunky, and is somewhat
annoying.

Is it worth your money? Certainly. I hope to see better things
in the future though. I've just finished this game, and started
Evolution 2. I'll let you know what I think.
