    EVE is primarily about doing things with your ship; mining, combat, missions. Where as TerraGenesis is about building up planets and terraforming them. Not the same type of gameplay.

    Space Engine is a space visualizer. TerraGenesis is a game. While there is planetary exploration in TerraGenesis, I just think Space Engine shouldn't be the top result. It definitely should remain listed.

    In the final stage of the game (the space stage) you are able to go to other planets and colonize and terraform them too.

    You start as a simple organism, a single cell, and your task is to grow bigger and follow one of the evolution trees. Eat smaller creatures or tasty objects and gain enough mass to evolve into another, more evolved living organism.
