Young Darwin

An educational history simulation game by Benjamin Breen (UCSC)

The year is 1835. As a young naturalist aboard HMS Beagle, you've arrived at the Galápagos archipelago – a volcanic wonderland teeming with unfamiliar creatures.

Explore Isla Floreana, collect specimens, and record your observations. Every detail could lead to profound scientific insights. You might even stumble on something unexpected... like an escapee from the penal colony of political prisoners in the central highlands.

A scientific adventure awaits

Will your observations lead to revolutionary understanding, or merely catalog curiosities?
