About Darwin's Paradox!
Embark on a grand adventure worthy of a true animated movie with Darwin, an octopus as charming as he is clever, ripped from the ocean and trapped in a massive and mysterious industrial complex. With his extraordinary intelligence and incredible abilities – swimming, camouflage, and many other fascinating skills – help him overcome the most formidable traps and dangers in this captivating platformer, adventure, and puzzle game. In the peaceful vastness of the ocean, Darwin, a young octopus, explores the deep sea… until a strange beam of light pierces the abyss and pulls him toward the surface. Thrust out of his aquatic world, he wakes up disoriented in the middle of a gigantic junkyard, backed by a foreboding factory. But something is wrong. Between the threatening machines, strange holding tanks, and the mysterious and dangerous creatures and characters that inhabit the place, Darwin realizes he is in danger. To return to the ocean, Darwin will have to outsmart, evolve, and reveal to the players through his journey the mysteries of a conspiracy that goes beyond anything one could have imagined… and which could very well seal the fate of humanity!

Great game, Fun gameplay, amazing visuals, and an enjoyable experience. There are some minor optimization issues, but overall I had a great time playing it.
Very very good. I've always needed a game like this, and it's delivered.
Pretty fun little puzzle platformer. I was excited about this game when it was first announced, I managed to 100% the game in about 6 in-game hours. Considering how quickly i got all achievements, I would highly suggest waiting for this game to be on sale first. The puzzles were fun and not too difficult, the slight humor was enjoyable and I thought the graphics went well with this game. 9/10 puzzle platformer, I had a lot of fun! I just wish it was slightly longer.
3/5
Amazing game, sometimes frustrating but in a good way. Story is fun, the art and scenery is amazing and it's really a fun game. Recommend for sure!
