Just What I Was Waiting to See! – Endgame: Singularity II Review

I can't believe that I haven't heard of this game before. I'm sure many like it exist, but this is the first I've been able to find in which you play as the self-interested evolving AI. For those that didn't look, this is basically an open source game originally developed in Python for all operating systems back in 2008 or so. Basically, unlike similarly themed games, there is no "hacking" element. Your view is restricted to a map of the world, in which you select countries to add computers for earning money and researching concepts in order to advance up the tech tree. Don't get attached to your bases; after the first few days, the humans will become free to search and detect you, and they will. Constantly. I assume intelligent play involves constantly opening bases as others are discovered, but not so many that your Suspicion reaches 100% and the game ends. Overall, more intriguing than most research advancement sims, including those with graphical interfaces. I understand the meat of the game comes later, as well. I think it says something that I'm more interested in playing this than Pocket League Story. Do yourself a favor and pick this up or download its PC counterpart. It's just that good!
