Amazing

I played this game when I was 4 years old and it was amazing. These days I was thinking about it again and again because no other game offers its complexity and its challenge. For example the kit you have are not that simple to get (antigen, antibody and so on) so you have to search a little bit for them, there isn't the brainless tutorial telling you everything, you must discover things all by yourself. While you are trying to get a clue to the game, your norns are growing, the dangers are a lot (mushrooms, diseases for example) and at your first disease case you have no idea what to do to save your precious norn. Is like in the reality when you have no experience on breeding and you start with one subject, that subject suddenly feels sick/doesn't listen to you/get pregnant and you don't know what is the best for her/him. After certain time, you get some notions, starting to understand that that plant produce a desired/undesired effect and you move accordingly. I read a few reviews telling that norns don't listen to you. This is another tricky part, first you have to teach them the language (like a child) but at the same time you have to build a relationship with your creatures, so that they are going to listen to you more frequently (but sometimes they simply don't obey you, because they have a mind and they use it). Don't confuse this game with The Sims. The Sims - in my opinion - doesn't offer no challenge at all because there aren't unexpected events, your sims will not die or lose jobs unless you want them to. Creatures in the other hand is a lot more difficult, sometimes you are not looking at a specific norn and he decides to travel far away, till near a deadly mushroom , eating it and dying and you feel guilty about that. Genetic part is the core of the game. What traits you want to transmit? How to deal with a genetic problem? Is there any mutation? Are there any recessive/strong traits? Is a norn more suitable to transmit the traits you want and why?

Missing a key feature

Try as I might, I am unable to find the "Norn Converter" (or "Nornverter" as some websites call it), to allow me to bring my C1 Norns into a C2 world... If I had known that was missing, I would still be using the disk of the original Creatures game that I have on my shelf! And I'd be a little richer for that foresight as well. >:(

For me, a burst of Nostalgia...

I first played these games when I was merely a child, and of course I didn't understand it all too well, but I got the gist of it - care for the creatures and you'll enjoy it. Now I come back to the game after finding it here, and now understand the mechanics better, I can safely say if i'd never played this game as A child, i'd never have noticed it now. A true masterpiece, one of THE best titles of its time, and a crying shame that the original developers went bankrupt/stopped making games.

Adventurous~

For those of us who were exposed to Creatures at a young age, it probably left an imprint of something peculiar, at least for me it did. Unfortunately I was never allowed to play this by my cousin[when I was but 6 and she was 9 respectively]. Despite this being pushed to the recesses of my mind, some 12 years later I stumbled across it again, at which point I said, "If I don't buy this I'll never have an experience of my own..and I also have no credit card whatsoever...". However, my grandfather was kind enough to buy it for my birthday and I just have to say this game is simply adventurous, the little norns always keep me on my toes. I have no idea what they'll do next!

Still as captivating as I remember it.

This game certainly takes some getting used to, the initial creatures (norns) have no idea how to take care of themselves, and the world can be rather overwhelming at first, but once the third or fourth generation rolls around you can take your eyes off of them for a little bit longer! The world they live in, Albia, is amazing, the diversity of one area to another is captivating and beautiful. There are some areas where it's very dangerous for your norns to be, there are others where your norns can thrive for generations. I can play creatures for hours and not even realise the time has gone by! This game is so easy to change and alter to your hearts content with the amazing amount of user created content available on the net. Even though the game has been around for so many years, it's still an amazing game that can entertain for hours. Once you figure out how the various apps work the game is even easier to play! It definitely takes practise, but once you get the hang of it it's a lot of fun.
