About

Join Darwin, a smart and lovable octopus, on an epic journey! He’s been taken from the ocean and is now stuck inside a huge, puzzling factory. Use Darwin’s amazing skills – like swimming, blending in, and more – to help him escape tricky traps and dangers in this exciting platformer, adventure, and puzzle game.

Deep in the ocean, a young octopus named Darwin happily explored his underwater world. But one day, a mysterious light shone down and pulled him upwards, away from everything he knew. He woke up confused and alone in a massive junkyard, overshadowed by a large, intimidating factory.

Something feels off. Surrounded by menacing machines, bizarre containment units, and unsettling creatures and people, Darwin quickly understands he’s in serious trouble. To escape and return to the ocean, he’ll need to be clever, adapt to his surroundings, and uncover a vast conspiracy – one that could determine the future of humankind!
