[edit] Storyline
Players in Dominant Species control a Mindlord on the planet Mur, in constant battle over the precious resource Anima. In the single player campaign, this battle is first against free roaming creatures, presenting a tutorial for the game. The campaign usually follows your hive rescuing and destroying the invading army of humans.
[edit] Gameplay
Dominant Species is a traditional real-time strategy game, with resource gathering (anima), production of battlefield units (with a bio-engineered theme), a single-player campaign and multiplayer mode.
Along with Total Annihilation and Dark Reign, it was one of the first RTS games to make the transition to 3D graphics.
[edit] Critical reaction
Strategy Gaming Online awarded the game 8.2 out of 10[1], finding it innovative and fun but with disappointing sound effects.
