Advantages: the creature and being god

Disadvantages: gets repetitive

When i first heard about this game i thought it sounded amazing, You are god, you have a faithful creature that learns constantly, you have to convert other villages and defeat rival gods. So when it came out i went out with the little money i had, being about 12, and bought it. I brought it home and to my great disapointment, my computer wasn't good enough for the game. At the time the graphics were amazing and a good computer was needed.

The game sat on a shelf gathering dust until i got a new computer and it was installed straight away! The game starts with some villagers calling for help as their child is about to get eaten by sharks. you are then created and the villagers worship you for saving the kid.

What follows is a lengthy tutorial showing the unique controls for the game, which doesnt really use an interface. The game gets going and introduces you to your creature, which I think is one of the best feautres of the game.

You creautre learns though reinforcment. You can beat your creature if it is naughty or stroke it if it does what you want it to do. Your creature, like you, can be mean or nice, the way you raise it changes this.

The game had great graphics then, ok graphics now and the gameplay is good, albeit sometimes a little boring. But one day, my girlfriend deleted my game, and i was genuinely upset by the loss of my tiger, sad times.

Summary: A good game, and it can be found dirt cheap! I saw it for 99p in gamestation.
