The Evolution: Worlds Nintendo GameCube Rom - A Mixed Bag of Upgrades and Downgrades

Evolution: Worlds, released for the Nintendo GameCube, is a remake of sorts that combines two previous games, Evolution: The World of Sacred Device and Evolution: Far Off Promise, into one package. While it brings some welcome improvements to the table, it also retains some of the original's flaws.

Graphically, the game has seen significant redone for the GameCube, with character models that have been nicely rounded and feature good expressions. However, the backgrounds are still sparse and plagued by ugly repeating textures and framerate problems. Unfortunately, these issues hold the game back from truly shining visually.

In terms of story, Evolution: Worlds revolves around Mag Launcher, an adventurer who bears a striking resemblance to Justin from Grandia. The narrative follows Mag and his friend Linear Cannon as they search for the Historical Society's research facility in the ruins surrounding Pannam, seeking to unravel the mysteries of a prehistoric civilization that created advanced technology, including Cyframes - magical machines that can grant their hosts great strength.

Cyframes are an integral part of the game's world, serving both as tools and sources of power. They attach to a person's body and can enhance their abilities in various ways.

While Evolution: Worlds does offer some improvements over its predecessors, it still feels sub-par graphically, and could potentially be rendered on the Dreamcast without breaking a sweat. Nevertheless, fans of the original games may find the updated visuals and combined content worth checking out.
