I'm not overly impressed. The game itself looks quite barren, and the artstyle has historically left an awful taste in my mouth. I'm impressed that they still managed to fund this, and who knows, maybe it'll bring new life to the series. But judging from this video I don't think creatures online is designed with my demographic in mind.
This game seems to be targeting the young as well as the mobile market, which I don't fault, both are lucrative if not unstable market options. It's a shame that we couldn't really get a true to form successor for the series, but i can't imagine that happening for quite some time yet.
I mean for all intents and purposes this game may actually play better than it looks, and i'm keeping as open of a mind as possible, just right now I'm not really feeling it.
creatures caves is your #1 resource for the creatures artificial life game series: creatures, creatures 2, creatures 3, docking station, and the upcoming creatures family.
