Mastering the genes In the future humanity will become masters of genetic engineering. The ultimate product of this technology is the Genohunter. The Genohunter is the truly ultimate warrior. It can adapt to any situation simply by integrating the superior qualities of the enemies that it kills into itself. If a slain enemy had the ability to jump high, the Genohunter would incorporate that enemy's DNA into its own and mutate itself so that it too would have that particular useful quality.
This is the basis behind Computer Artworks Ltd.'s newest creation, simply entitled Evolva, after the Genohunter's unique characteristic to evolve and change itself.
In the game you play an Evolva, one of the futuristic military commanders, sent out to destroy a parasite that is invading the galaxy. The parasite spreads its huge tentacle-like limbs around a planet and places its own eggs in the planet. Once the eggs are ready, they hatch and are launched into space to destroy the next set of planets, destroying the host world in the progress. In the meantime, it also produces hordes of "guardians" to protect itself and ensure its survival.
