Evolution Games!

Sea Monsters Adventure Game - Can you survive the seven deadliest seas of all time in this game? Take the plunge!


Big Al Game - Eat enough to grow from a hatchling to an adult male Allosaurus. There are four levels to progress through as you gain more weight. At the start of each level you will be asked a question. How you answer will affect your life as Big Al.


How did you do? Did you enjoy the games? Were they helpful in understanding the principles of evolution?

  1. The Big Al game is really interesting but i couldn't survive!! i can't believe baby dinosaurs were just left to live on their own with out their mothers. In some cases the mother ate her baby!

  2. The big al game was really fun!
    For the sea monsters adventure game, I tried downloading the new version of flash, but it still wouldn't let me play the game. I need help!
    But other than that, thanks so much for posting some really cool games!

  13. The Big Al game was fun, but it was really hard to live! It's crazy how hard it was (is!) for a creature to survive, especially when eveything's so much stronger and fiercer than it. It really shows the competition to survive in the wild. The other game wouldn't work with my mac, but I'll try again, downloading the software and restarting the computer.

  15. I tried the seven seas game. I lost in the 4th round...it was hard! It does help me understand how animals are adapted to their environments.

  16. I love the games!! I think I enjoy the Al one.... I got to level 4 ish i think and got killed by an alligator :(. I must agree, how can a scorpion be stronger than a dinosaur??? Oh well. I enjoyed playing anyway. Thanks Leslie!

  17. Just as I finally got the hang of how to survive, my mother didn't recognize me and decided to eat me... yay! Don't you just love how spontaneous this game is?

  18. Big AL is a bit hard but it's fun! in level 2, u guys should eat the eggs on the other side of the river when the croc's not there. kinda funny... NOTE: you have to go up and over the river through the quicksand.

  23. Hi Leslie,

    Wow! The Big Al Game is so hard. I could only make it up to about 4kg and then a crocodile would eat me. It must have been a very difficult childhood for little dinosaurs.
