Evolution will play out on not just your own creature, but those around you, each competing to survive within the simulated environment.

This line makes me wary of WB

Whats WB?

Warner Bros have a gameplay mechanic patent which has pretty vague wordings.

And although this game doesn't seem like it'd turn out similar to any of the games they made under that patent, I would expect them to try harassment.
