- You are playing on the maps with an existing ecosystem that is producing various sources of food.
- You can expand to new territories.
- You can invade enemy species.

- Species are hostile only when they share the same source of food and have similar size.
- You can have various goals like target biomass, biodiversity, or dominance in ecosystem.
- Species in the ecosystem can die out or can mutate to new species in time.
- Species can be herbivores, omnivores, or carnivores and can have one of four different sizes.
- Species lives complete life from being born to death, need food to survive.
