The game it self is great, the only problem that everyone has is that the game gets repetative after a while and makes you wanna break it. hahaha! Well I wouldn't buy it but just borrow it from a friend and you should get enough use out of it. or buy it and sell it to a friend. YEAH! Good Luck!

Good Style of Gameplay

When I was deciding whether to buy this game, I was discouraged by some of the reviews on the site- generally by comments about how interacting with villagers was 'boring.'
However, any fan of a game like Civilization or Age of Empires should find the villager interaction interesting. You can create the village and supply the villagers with resources- or (as I did) have a competition with your friends to see how many houses you can knock down with a single thrown rock. The possibilities for villager interaction as well as the highly sophisticated creature AI are extensive and not to be tossed aside. Unless you are concerned with the moral implications (which is very reasonable) I would get the game and play God. Its a lot of fun, believe me!

This review is to anyone who hasn't purchased this game but is thinking of doing so. If you are reading these reviews then you are probably not sure. Allow me to help you. If you have or may possibly have suffered from migrains or other chronic headaches, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. It is not bad at first, but after a while, it hurts. For those of you who don't, buy and enjoy.

Don't Buy it!

This game even with a patch not only still has many bugs, but once you install the patch many if not all could not run the game. You had to download runblack.exe or unSafeDisc to get it to even load. I had to deal with tech. daily, all they tell people is check your video drivers for update, directX is wrong, adjust the accelerator. I never was able to get Creature Isle to work. This game should have never hit the market. There has not been any mention of another patch to fix the still many bugs remaining. It's a waste of time. The only good note is that the Tech's. did reply pretty fast, even though their solutions were off the mark.

Fun, but semi-repetitive

"Black and White" is a good game overall. You start out as a god who gets to control a creature to carry out tasks to the island you control. The people build things for you and worship you. The fun comes when you can be a good god or evil god, depending on your actions. Thi game is fun, but you'll probably forget about it in a couple months.

Pretty good!

I really love this game. although taking care of the villages can be quite grueling, it's still a good game. you are god, you control your villages, you have cute little creature and you do quests. here's the story: you are a new god, you have your own little village and creature, when this other god, Nemesis, comes and destroys everything, wanting to be the only god. you're supposed to defeat Nemesis. I recommend this game.

This is almost the worst game I have played. It's great until about 2 weeks of playing it then it gets old. There are some quests impossible to complete. I have found a ton of glitches and im only on the 3 stage of the game.

Awful!!

This game starts off really good telling you all the controls and some shortcuts so you dont have to spend hours in the manual before you play. The best thing about the game is that you can choose if you want to be evil or if you want to be a loving god. The graphics are really awsome and when u become evil how the sky changes and the tower changes with the cursor which is a shape of a hand. The creatures are really cool with awsome AI. You get to choose from a tiger a cow or a bull which really is a hard choice. The creature gets leashes each one with a different ability and you can teach the creature tricks or how to do certain stuff. The first level is easy which is to open a gate and find hidden secrets and get the town to believe in you. That is probably one of the hardest things to do in a game but there are many things you can do to help them have faith in you. The second level is cool because you have to get rid of a god and his creature. You get to use miracles to help you accomplish and you have another god helping you. The game gets really addicting and you will not want to stop. I havent got passed the second level for I just recently purchased it. My only thing to tell you is to buy it. For nineteen ninety nine that is a really good deal.
