About
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!
Main Gameplay Features:
With rich artistic direction and a vibrant world, Darwin’s Paradox immerses you in a visual and emotional epic where every detail reveals more of its incredible story.
The game offers a perfect balance between platforming sequences and moments of puzzle-solving: Swim, hide, infiltrate, jump, and use the extraordinary abilities of an octopus to advance in your adventure, escape perilous situations, or solve the many puzzles in the game.
Discover sprawling levels with a unique and polished artistic direction, filled with puzzles, dangers, and surprising creatures and characters.
Between humor, emotion, and suspense, Darwin takes you on a memorable odyssey.

好玩！就像看了一部动画电影， 幻影引擎还是顶， 虽然有一些地方有引导弱或者是初见杀，但是基本上不影响游玩个人感觉， 期待下一部，希望能有改善，如果有的话
游戏是早上买的，全成就是晚上打完的…不得不说，这游戏流程太短了。 皮克斯动画风格的平台跳跃加轻度解密游戏，比较简单休闲。 画风舒适，有点像电影《海底总动员》，游戏内的小纸条很有意思，顺带完善了游戏的剧情，运镜还有演出效果都很棒，感觉甚至可以拍成一部电影了。 收集物不多，一共20个，全成就难度低，白金党可以放心入手。 本来想再等等，看看有没有更低的折扣，因为这游戏热度不是很高，而且原价很贵。我一直在关注这款游戏，从发售开始几乎每次打折都是新史低，看着这次折扣和史低一样，刚好没游戏玩，就直接入手了。本来寻思能玩个两三天，没想到一天就打完了…总之这款游戏还是非常棒的👍🏻！

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Juego cortito pero muy chulo y cuidado, eso si, mejor cogerlo con alguna oferta porque te lo pasas en una tarde
Legal o jogo, mas eu achava que tinha mais fases extras para jogar no final,. Quando tinha visto o trailer tinha visto umas fases de metal gear, me deu curiosidade de jogar bastante por isso, mas era só de uma demo kkkkkk. Mas em geral é um jogo divertido, só achei os colecionaveis meio danisse podia ser melhor
el juego de púlpito, bastante chévere. Gráficos, banda sonora y mecánicas plataformeras son bastante destacable. Pero lo que si no me gustó de este juego, fue lo desbalanceado que son ciertas partes de los niveles. Y el final? Pues, sin más.
Pretty fun little puzzle/swimmer/stealth game. Very cartoony so it doesn't take itself too seriously. Only criticism would be that it is on the short side (~4 hours) and the ending is a little anti-climactic, but overall a fun ride.
It is not a hard game but there are a number of points where it was simply not worth the effort. I powered through a couple but in the end it was not worth the time to get through them all. That is the good and bad of Indie games, since I had little invested when it was no long worth the time, you uninstall and move on. They got the money, doubt they care much if I finished or not.
Öncellikle bir ahtopot oyunundan ne bekliyorsanız onu veriyor bence benim tek şikayetim bazı bölümlerde çok zorlanmam(kişiden kişiye değişir evet puanıda ona göre veriyorum)Onun dışında güzel keyifli oyun
还是需要打磨的游戏，追逐战没有明确的方向，这就导致基本所有追逐战都不可能一遍过，基本都要背板很多次，很影响游戏体验，而且一些追逐战比如说最终boss，背景太暗了，一个追逐战背景设那么暗根本找不到路
