If you know what Creatures is, you probably don't need to read this. If not, you probably do want to read it.

Creatures is an A-Life game where you raise small, cute animals called Norns. The Norns hatch from eggs, eat, grow, and develop, and eventually reproduce. (Nothing vulgar, they reproduce with a sound known as a "kisspop".) Both Creatures 1 and 2 take place on Albia, a disk like world with a few dangers. Creatures 3, the latest in the series, takes place on a spaceship. This site mainly deals with Creatures 3.
