    It's a lot of fun but somewhat repetitive. [Nov 2002, p.220]

    An excellent compilation of two good Dreamcast RPGs which didn’t get as much recognition as they should have received.

    The problems with Evolution are many, but in the end it still tells a cute story featuring charming characters.

    The game uses plot as an afterthought and focuses instead on a woefully undeveloped combat system and skill tree (or pole, as it happens to be).

    As RPGs go, Evolution Worlds just about flatlines somewhere in the middle.

    Worlds' unappealing characters, boring gameplay and woeful presentation make it one that probably even the hardcore should skip.

    This game is amazing throughout. The voice overs are well put together and the game is solid and fun.

    Really creative and fun RPG, my favorite on the Gamecube in fact, if not of all time. The characters are so memorable, and the story isReally creative and fun RPG, my favorite on the Gamecube in fact, if not of all time. The characters are so memorable, and the story is hooking and compelling without overstaying it's welcome and dragging on. There is just so much to enjoy with this game. Every character is fully voice acted (in the early 2000's mind you), there is an item crafting system in combine that is great for inventory management, the cyframes are all super unique, all combined with an unforgettable story!

    I have fond memories from 16 years ago playing this game, and have beaten it multiple times. One of the best, most creative RPGs of all time!    … Expand

    A complete waste of your time. If your looking for a good RPG for the 'cube, get Skies of Arcadia.
