Evolution: The World of Sacred Device (known as in Japan) is a role-playing video game for the Dreamcast and Neo Geo Pocket Color (developed and published by SNK under the name Evolution: Eternal Dungeons, known in Japan as ). It was developed by Sting and published by Entertainment Software Publishing in Japan and Ubi Soft in North America and Europe. Evolution is a dungeon crawling game that follows the adventures of Mag Launcher. Mag Launcher and his companions use Cyframes, technology discovered in ancient ruins. These Cyframes are sought after by adventurers who explore caverns to find them. Combat in Evolution is non-random and occurs whenever the character touches an enemy. The battle system uses 3D graphics and is turn-based, with each individual combatant having their own turn. This game and its sequel, Evolution 2: Far Off Promise were compacted into Evolution Worlds on the GameCube. Gameplay This game features multiple different gameplay elements. The battle system within the game not only has "experience points" but it gives "skill points" to characters so they can learn new abilities. In the latter half of the game, there's a lottery system that allows rare items, not found anywhere else in the game, to be obtained. The appraisal system was one of the first alchemy-like interfaces in a game in the 20th century version of Evolution. Main characters Mag Launcher - The 17-year-old protagonist of the series.
