Creatures 2 is a game, of sorts, but not in the usual sense. Think of it as a very clever piece of software which creates Cvirtual' Tamogotchis on your PC and then puts you in charge of them. There is no ultimate goal but, as with Creatures, the prospect of raising your very own computer pets proves an entertaining enough diversion in itself. Verily, it is a labour of love. That's not to say Creatures 2 is a walk in the 'digital' park; there's a challenge to be had here alright. And that challenge is the creation and maintenance of life itself. And life, as we all know, is a bitch.
Gameplay consists of hatching eggs, which produce creatures which you must then raise from birth to adulthood. This is achieved through interaction with a thankfully friendly and intuitive interface: simply scroll around the game world, clicking on icons, pressing hot keys and persuading your creatures to learn basic words from a computer.
The creatures directly under your control are called norns. You can check what your noms are looking at with the Creature's-Eye View, and there are handy kits available to tell you how your little ones are feeling: you have kits which monitor everything from health, breeding and ecology, through to family trees and individual chemistry.
While your immediate objective is to keep your norns alive and well, you eventually have to teach them how to talk and understand things; nurturing them to comprehend what's right and wrong, differentiate between pain and pleasure, and then how to deal with it is an essential part of the game. If, for example, they get a little peckish but haven't learnt how to feed themselves yet, they'll simply curl up and die. Sad, maybe, but it's up to you to make sure this doesn't happen.
The Brain Game
As you might have guessed, the Al in Creatures 2 is of NASA proportions, and therefore a little scary. It urinates on just about any Al routine we've seen in any PC game to date. Boffins worldwide have got all excited over the game engine, which is considered to be the world's most advanced artificial life simulator commercially available. This is quite a claim, but when you consider that the creatures in the game are the only digital pets that we've come across that can live and think on their own, these claims suddenly start to ring true.
Not that you'll notice all this background cleverness to start with. Your first hour or two in the game will be spent getting your noms to a point where they can just about look after themselves.In later stages though, you'll have the opportunity to mess about with the Genetic Splicing Machine which enables you to create your own creatures. Mix the genes from the loveable noms with the evil grendels, add a couple of genes from anything else you find lying around, and there's a distinct possibility you could end up 'inventing' your very own living, breathing nightmare.

Perhaps the most emphatic proof of the appeal of this type of game is the phenomenal following Creatures has on the Internet. Since its release, over 400 dedicated sites have appeared. On these you can find and download thousands of new creatures, plants, animals, toys and tools. The newsgroup alt.games.creatures is one of the busiest on the Net, and recently set up a petition to close a site for advocating cruelty to norns. Only in America.
Anyway, Creatures 2 is here and I'm terrified. Why? Because I can't help loving my creations. Whether they're thick or clever, independent or docile, or even annoying, I care for them. I'm normally a bloke who likes beer and fags and farting, so what the blazes is going on?! The noms are taking over my life. Is that a risk you're prepared to take?
