Hi, is it possible to instal Creatures Adventures on Windows 7? I have got my own game but i don't know how to instal it.

Good question! I have Windows 7 and Creatures Village, but haven't installed it yet. But I assume it will probably work fine, since I didn't have any problems with C3/DS and it's based on the same engine. :) If I get a chance to install it some time soon, I'll be sure to post the results.

[edit] After a brief play session I can say that it installs and plays just fine... for me, at least. And I didn't need to tinker with game files or anything like that to get it to work. So far everything looks good!

Well... personally I'm not sure about CA, but GOG.com is selling Creatures Village, which is CA-esque. It might help satisfy your craving just in case you can't install it!

Here is the link to download it. It's on sale for 3 bucks right now!

I'm curious as well since I only have CA on disc and the only OS I have to work with on the laptops is Windows 7. So far I haven't been able to get it to install, but the autorun and the little video works.

At the moment, I have other things to spend my money on than games. As one of my bibbles has said. [nlaugh]

Tried compatibility mode on the installer file? Windows 95 or 98 should work if you have the option.

Unfortunately, Windows 7 isn't all that great with the original discs. Chocosaurus posted a great link to the GOG.com version, which I purchased in the past and can attest to it working on a Windows 7 system! It's always a shame when old discs don't work out, but at least you still have yours. Hope you eventually get to play again soon!
