A game for those with a massive amount of patience. However, if you're a fan of top of the line simulations, the Norns may be a good pick.

Sure, you can punish them all you want or play ball with them, but soon it all becomes rather too monotonous and, most importantly, you really don't care when the little freaks kick the bucket.

Only the most patient, bored and PS2-deprived gamer should think of wasting the many hours it takes to get enough Norns hatched, trained and breeding to make the three worlds in Creatures come alive.

I think that there's just too much to this game to be ported to the PlayStation with it's limited memory, and the design team didn't seem to cut corners in the right places.

Sarah B. gave it a 6:
It is fun but i really don't understand everything.

Tahnee B. gave it a 4:
It is good for a little while but when u get a lot of norns the little life bars at the bottom crowd ur view so u cant see. And its soooo annoying when they kick the food!!! *hisss* And i only get attached to up to 2 norns at a time then the liitle messages appear at the top "u have not looked after betsy for a while" so i check her, thinking shes dieing and shes fine. Then, in the island world (havent gotten to tree yet) the dumb green things!!! this game is ok but i like FF8 the best. Ive heard PArasite eve is good tho too. Maybe i'll go buy it.
