Science Kombat: Who would win in a fight between Einstein and Darwin?

Science Kombat is a new browser-based game that lets some of history's most famous scientists duke it out in an epic grudge match

Here's something fun for a Friday: If you miss the heady days of over-the-top fighting games from the early 90s, then Superinteressante magazine has a neat little surprise for you this week.

Science Kombat is a free-to-play browser game that pits eight science heavyweights against each other in a one-on-one brawl. You can choose from Einstein, Tesla, Pythagoras, Hawking, Turing, Darwin, Newton and Curie (it would have been nice to see more female scientists on the roster), and each comes with their own set of science-based power-ups. Stephen Hawking can create black holes to inflict damage on your opponent, while Curie harnesses the power of radium-coated hands to unleash a fireball reminiscent of Ryu's Hadouken.
