Black and White is one of the most innovative games of its time period. You play as a god who oversees the prosperity of certain towns and eventually you compete with other gods for control of these towns. However, what makes this game so innovative is the freedom. If you love the freedom of games like Grand Theft Auto then you should give this one a go. The fundamental choice you must make is your alignment and your creature. Obviously you can be either a "good" god or an "evil" god. This choice affects the way you have to move through the game. For example, if you use evil spells to bring a town to their knees it will be faster, but you will need to rebuild the town once it is yours and vice-versa for using good spells. Your creature is a huge godly animal that is an extension of yourself. Your creature learns from you and imitates you, almost like young children. The variety of such creatures is excellent as well. The graphics and sound on this game are absolutely superb, being its best qualities. The gameplay can become repetitive at times, but is generally very good. When you finallly finish this game after a long 20-40 hour quest, you feel a large sense of accomplishment. This game is definitely worth the money.
