I know a few people on my friends list have been playing Don't Starve (a cute survival game it's all too easy to die in). Niche takes that idea and adds breeding/genetics to it. Only the demo is out now (free download), but even just that is lots of fun -- I've played it five times in a row.

It's really quite cute, both the graphics and the minimal sounds.



You breed new creatures (if you're lucky) and use points you earn to improve their genes.

It's quite fun, and at least in my experience thus far, is as challenging to survive as Don't Starve is.

OH COOL! Sounds like a blend of Don't Starve and Spore/Sims. I may have to download this and give it a try!

The demo is free and available now, so check it out! I'm having fun with it.

You're right about the mix of games, that does seem to be the genetics (haha) of this one.

Downloaded and tried it for a bit this afternoon. Very cute and challenging! I hope the developer continues work on this; it has a lot of potential. :)

Agreed! I'd like to see more of it.
