Darwin's Paradox review: "This octopus adventure feels gleefully XBLA-core, which is both a strength and a weakness"
Darwin's Paradox is a charming puzzle-platformer where players control an octopus to thwart an alien invasion. While it features unique octopus abilities like sticky-jumping and camouflage, the game struggles to innovate within its genre and offers a simplistic experience that lasts only about three hours. The review highlights fun platforming challenges but criticizes the basic stealth mechanics and a particularly dire mech section.
