Puzzle elements

When this game first came out, magazines celebrated it as a very good successor of pupalar game Lemmings. Even the distribution company declare this game wants to be more famous, than Lemmings series. As time has shown, they have ultimately failed, but still it is a very good puzzle game. Soo, what's this game about? It is about nice, stupid, greedy, but also kind-hearted creatures - people, or The Humans. The game begins in prehistory, where you start with a couple of people who do not have many abilities. The goal is to hammer out until present time. You have to lead people through various traps, find new tools, learn to use them and develop other skills. For example, when you find the spear, you have to learn how to jump into the distance, lit her shrub that stands in your way, or frighten away a dinosaur that threaten you. Humans are, at the very beginning, of course, only barbarians and you have to lead them to learn something. During the game you will discover several inventions (such as the wheel, gunpowder, guns,...) which you must know how to use, so you may proceed to the next level. Difficulty increases with each level and even at level 10 the game is pretty difficult.
