Amazon.com Product Description Reprise your role as a good or evil god and expand the power of your Creature in Black & White: Creature Isle, the highly anticipated expansion pack to the bestselling, critically acclaimed PC game Black & White. When the missionaries from your land of Eden wreck on the coast of Creature Isle, you and your Creature are suddenly called forth through the vortex to encounter the Brotherhood of Creatures, a collective of giants without deities. Explore new lands and win the worship of new tribes to expand your godly powers beyond your wildest dreams. Raise your Creature to new heights and teach him all-new abilities as he completes the trials of the Brotherhood. In addition, your Creature gains an apprentice to raise as his own, and falls in love for the first time with the beautiful Eve. Only by successfully completing the challenges imposed by the Brotherhood and defeating their leader can you and your Creature become the supreme rulers of Creature Isle.

Great May 31, 2007 I really enjoy the Black & White line and this game is no diferent. Hours of fun, I love them!
Somewhat fun... March 19, 2004 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have not yet completed the game, but so far it is somewhat fun. The trials are interesting, and usually not too easy/too hard. Tyke is cute, especially the clucking bit. But the game runs far too slowly; more than once I've come close to punching my monitor (not good since it's near the edge of the desk). Black & White was slow occasionally, but NOTHING like Creature Isle. The game constantly "freezes" for a few seconds, before it works again; if you were zooming/moving around, you'll find yourself on the other side of the island.
Don't get me wrong, this is a nice expansion pack, but don't waste $15 on it. Buy used, cheap as you can get. it's not worth more than $5, tops.
5/08/05 Update:
I have since completed the expansion pack, although that was quite a few months ago. I had forgotten about this review, to be honest. I will still stand by what I said, that this pack is not worth the $15; buy used if you must buy it at all. The little games were amusing, and I loved the idea of allowing your creature to actually help your villagers build buildings, but this pack doesn't actually add anything to the game itself (the way Marine Mania adds to Zoo Tycoon, for example). You need Black & White for the pack to work, but it is not integrated in any way with Black & White. This is quite unfortunate, as I would have loved to test out the new miracles and the creature building ability in the main game, throughout the lands.
Must Play This Ever Hard Challenging Boring Game May 31, 2003 BNW CI is a very good game with lot new attractions. Here you will face very boring, challenging, and very funny trials. Rufus the second leader of the Brotherhood of band of creatures will guide you to face the trials and impress the main leaders adopted daughter called EVE (she is not so attractive but who cares) At the start of the game you will see the old missionaries from Black and White. Here you will see your creature's new battling skills. After crushing Nemesis in Land 5 on Black and White, after becoming the new ruler of Eden its a pretty cool game to find out what your creature really should be.

One sentence: bring Black and White (another great game) to a whole new level!
It's worth the money March 19, 2003 0 out of 7 found this review helpful
Even though I don't have this game I think it will be fun.My cousin owns this game and I think if you turn the creatures evil they look cool.Tip:If your creature eats people and you pet your creature after that it will turn evil.I don't think it would be fun if your monsters were good.I read the other reveiws and I was inspired to write one myself.I'm going to get the game soon.Call 775-4214 if you want to talk about it.My name is Justin Thompson and I live in Cadillac,Michigan 49601.
