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

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.

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.

I do not like this game. I'm a big fan of the original B&W but this one just didn't do it justice. You still get to build villages and have worshippers but there are trials now. I've had this game for almost a year and I still haven't passed the first trial. This game is difficult and not very enjoyable. It's not expensive so it's not a huge loss if you buy it, but I suggest to spend your money on something else.

A pretty good expansion, but not the best in the world.

If you have gotten to at least Land 3 in the original B&W, this expansion won't dissapoint you. It is really creative, and I like te new creatures (Rhino, Chicken, Alligator). The trials are pretty fun, yet some of them are quite annoying. The biggest problem with this game is that it won't upgrade your original Black and White. This Really ticked me off, cuz I was hoping to beat the game with an alligator. However, like I said before, it's still really fun until you've beaten it.

A very interesting and involved expasion pack

Not a bad expasion pack! Great new concepts-such as the Brotherhood:a group of elite creatures that need to pass trials to join the group. New mircales; speed and cancel all mircales can be useful at times. 3 new creatures; all of which are at least fairly interesting-the croc is my new favorite, and the chicken is hilarious to use-the rhino is pretty cool too. At the same time, you get a small chicken follower, simply known as 'Tyke'. Tyke will follow your creature and learn miracles, skills and other abilities.
Unfortunatly, there is some bad press: both technical and gameplay. In technical, the game is not any faster than before, in fact, it's somewhat slower, sometimes jerking or slowing down-however, a minor drawback for the patiant and those with good computers. In gameplay, Tyke is difficult to control-he is EXTREMELY intellegent-learning most miracles and skills at %20-25 at a time, and sometimes more. However, you cannot control Tyke, and your creature must, therefore, Tyke may be good or evil against your will. Also, it is more difficult to sustain being good as a god, as well as keeping your creature good...if you are playing the 'goody' way. Some of the trials may also be frusterating, repetative or annoying. Still, many of the trials offer a good laugh and/or a lot of fun. I recommend this expansion-it's worth the minor amount of money.
