On the game i have acquired the power-up that lets you pick up creatures, but no matter where i clock or with what button i can't pick-up my norns or any other creatures for that matter. I'm running windows seven and the game runs fine otherwise i just can't pick up my critters :.:

If you have definitely got that power-up, holding shift and right-clicking a Norn should pick it up. If I remember correctly, you need separate power-ups to pick up Grendels and Ettins.

oh thats how it works? cool thanks for the help

Yep. For the record, it also works in Docking Station, whether docked or undocked, without the need for power-ups.
