Darwin's Paradox Review: Destructoid's Take on the Ingenious Octopus
About Darwin's Paradox!
Darwin's Paradox! is a narrative-driven action-adventure platformer, developed by ZDT Studio and published by Konami. The player plays as Darwin, a talented octopus imprisoned in an industrial complex, who must find his way back to the ocean using his natural abilities: camouflage, suction-cup arms for climbing, agile swimming and ink to confuse enemies.
The gameplay blends demanding platforming, puzzle solving and stealth sections inspired by espionage. With its vibrant art direction, heavily inspired by animated cinema, Darwin's Paradox! delights the player with the richness of the world it depicts, but also with the right balance of humor, emotion, suspense, action and enjoyment in an unforgettable odyssey. Released April 2, 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch 2 and PC (Steam, Epic Games Store).
