Now I have this game, and it's expansion Creature Isle. I've actually had them for a LONG time, jut never played em (They came together in a Bundle for $9 at Wal-Mart so I snagged em forever ago) I only barely started up the game before I ended up getting distracted...

Now, got a few things.

A) Who all possibly has this, and knows anything about the Online thing. When I hit escape it offers to let me join an Online Game... This intrigues me.

B) No matter where I go or what I do, after having played for a while, all the of the sudden every now and then I hear a womans voice whisper "Death" while I'm walking around. What did I do wrong and why wont she shut the hell up, and why is she constantly saying it.

C) I accidently killed the drowning people where you had to have your pet save them. He ate them before I could stop him... After it happened though, I did not regret it. Does this make me a bad person? I wish I could have eaten the damn guys who sit there and sing that stupid song when they are building thier arc. Annoying bastards.

Online games are horrible, but its a good way to teach your creature some of the difficult things, like the megabeam of doom ability, that they learn .5% every cast.

Weren't you supposed to be able to play a CD or Music or something while you played the game, and your Pet would adapt/like/dislike it and all that as time went on? How does that work. (Buying in Bundles kinda sucks, because your manual consists of basic setup instructions, or however much they can fit on that stupid little JewelCase Booklet. aka, I have no Manual beynd setup, and basic controls.)

Don't play online, ever. The only people that play online are german über gamers who will show you no mercy.

I joined an online game and, literally, within 10 seconds, his creature had walked across the entire continent (took about 3 steps, because it was FUCKING HUGE), captured every town ON THE WAY OVER (again, because it was FUCKING HUGE), and proceeded to launch fireballs at my temple, killing it within said 10 seconds.

At the end of the game, in the "Haha you just got owned" chat room feature they so graciously put in, the german guy said "Me play long time" and left.

i HAVE IT. I never quite got the hang of it.

the death you hear is when a villiger dies if you grab the skellington you cna use if for somthing but i forget what.

the ark guys are annoying, my darn creature ate half of them. despite the trouble i took to try to train him not to.

if you ever get to the 5th island....they come back and help you so you can be evil and kill them or help them for the payback latter


i never left the first island I jsut got frustrated trying to get my creature to do the things i wanted it to do.

Im confused as always[xIMG]http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-8/356687/somthorsig3.JPG[/img]

I have it. It rocks. As you go along you'll unlock other creatures with different variable capabilities.

What you have to ask yourself is...do you want to be a beneficent deity with a good pet? evil god with evil pet? evil with good? good with evil?

being an evil god with a beneficent pet is difficult, but quite a lot of fun. Someone begs you for help?? FLING THEM ACROSS THE ISLAND AND RAZE THEIR HOUSE INTO THE GROUND! And train your pet to help with food and blessings and defending.

Good pets look cooler (usually...some of them look stupid) than evil pets on the whole, but evil is cooler.

The only thing I liked about B&W was the detail on the creatures' physiques... Strength determines how hard they hit, and you can have them hold rocks and run around to raise strength. Fatness determines how many hits they take and how fast they go - 0% is fast but has low damage endurance, 100% is slow but has high endurance.

You can, I thought. I flung one of them into the ocean, flung another halfway across the island, and I coulda sworn I had my creature eat the third one.

My tiger rocked, it took ZERO craps its entire life, I beat the all living hell out of it the first time it tried to empty it's bowels, and it never, ever did it again.

I would just leash him in my town and not even bother checking back, heh. he would summon food for my worshippers, summon wood at any construction sites, and keep the food brimming to the top. And when he wasn't doing all my work for me, he was breakdancing for a horde of villagers

He also had a thing for setting like everyone to mate, heh.

I had a Tiger that only took 2 craps. I beat him to death after the second turd and the game glitched so that he was always full, but never needed to take a crap. Was pretty cool.

Trying to teach the pet to skip vilagers like stones was a challenge. He kept eating them instead.
