I'd posit that if you're making a genome from scratch, you're going to fail roughly a billion times.  Just like the universe did.

Could work if they give you a bunch of premade stuff, and let you tinker, mutate basically

Cool idea.
But sadly, there is more to genetics than genes. It is called epigenetics.
It would still make a cool game though, just not completely accurate. But, being a game, that doesn't really matter. Afterall, a game is merely another map. And maps and territories should never be indistinguishable.
