Long before Charles Darwin reached the Gal pagos Islands, another man discovered what evolution could become. Bryo Dukla awakens on a black volcanic shore with no memory of where he came from or how the ocean carried him there. Alone on an island untouched by civilization, he must learn to find water, make weapons, build shelter, and survive a landscape he does not understand. Then the animals begin to change. Native creatures transform at an impossible rate. Gal pagos penguins become coordinated hunters. Giant tortoises develop terrifying strength. Flamingos erupt in brilliant orange feathers. A carnivorous plant called Root Mouth turns an entire section of forest into a feeding ground. And above them all rises Green Scale-a monstrous winged marine iguana capable of hunting across land, sea, and sky. Bryo soon discovers that the color orange accompanies the island's accelerating evolution. As volcanic activity intensifies and the creatures become increasingly dangerous, survival demands more than strength. Bryo must study the monsters, understand their territories, exploit their instincts, and eventually turn the island's predators against one another. His only hope is to escape before the Gal pagos changes him-or destroys him-too. Centuries later, in 1835, Charles Darwin arrives aboard HMS Beagle and encounters islands filled with extraordinary variations of life. He will never know what happened there before him. GALAPAGOS is a cinematic survival-horror adventure about isolation, adaptation, monstrous evolution, and the forgotten survivor who witnessed the islands at their most terrifying.
