Evolution and Mutation
Updated for Brotato 1.2.0.1 · checked 2026-11-05
Primal Dread adds Evolution. You advance it by picking up drops on the Jungle map. Mecha feeds weapon parts and stats; the notes describe a mecha dinosaur that shoots lasers and leaves slowing oil. Mutation copies item effects at random; the mutated dinosaur breathes acid. Patch 1.2.0.1 raised the Mutagen drop from 2 percent to 3 percent and stopped Mutation from copying Survivor's 'no weapons in the shop' effect.
The wiki's Evolution page, when I opened it, was little more than a definition. Caps, and any effect on structures or pets, are not in the notes I have. I mark them unconfirmed. I will not invent a maximum.
T-Rex speed is capped at 95 percent in the same 1.2.0.1 note. That is a dinosaur line, not a general speed cap for every character.

FAQ
Can you take Mecha and Mutation together?
The notes describe them as two directions. I do not have a line that says you can finish both.
What is the Evolution cap?
Not published in the sources I used. The cell stays empty.
