  1. The sheer innovation of this new direction in gameplay shows the developers at Lionhead to be very creative thinkers and is worth the acquisition of the game by itself.
  2. If you fell in love with the virtual pet aspect within the original, the Creature AI is more dynamic and the insertion of variety keeps the adventure from becoming redundant. [Mar 2002, p.88]
  3. This expansion has just as much potential to both infuriate and delight gamers, and will likely earn a split crowd of followers and haters.

    I’d compare the enjoyment once can get from Creature Isle to that of sitting on a cross Atlantic flight for 14 hours in a seat next to a crying baby. It’ll have you raving to your friends for hours, but for all the wrong reasons.

    It's okay.i agree that many actions you do take a while.and there are limits that what you do.such as if you wanted to be good.its hard becuase of your creature doing somethng bad.or accidental.can get frustrating.B&W 2 lets you create a militia to fight off enemy creatures.lets wait for that and get some action in it.it should turn out like the Command & Conquer sort of game or Age of Empires.
