Multiwinia

Multiwinia is a real-time strategy game with six different modes. Each mode is designed to support between one and four players (human or CPU) and up to 50 unique maps of varying difficulties. As a multiplayer, and much more processed randomly generated universe version of Darwinia's, it has statistically inspired a random stochastic layered atmosphere.

Domination

Multiwinia follows its predecessor Darwinia, in which a computer scientist, Dr Sepulveda, created a digital world that existed within a computer network. This world, Darwinia, was inhabited by a two-dimensional digital life-form called Darwinians and was to become "the world's first digital theme park". In Darwinia, the player eradicated a computer virus that infected the world and threatened the life of the Darwinians. After this, Dr Sepulveda deemed the world safe again, while being concerned about the fact the Darwinians once had to fight their infected kin.

Over time they became more aggressive, dividing into factions and fighting. Now labelled Multiwinians, the tribes continue to fight each other.

The game received "generally favorable reviews" according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.

Eurogamer called the game "a quirky but devilishly compelling distillation of all that strategy games can be". IGN cited the crate power ups as the game's "most questionable element" and stated, "while it's still undoubtedly fun as a lightweight experience, it's far from being cerebrally rewarding or especially clever." PC Gamer UK said the game was "endearing, yet thin". GameWatcher called Multiwinia "A true triumph."
