I can fit my whole review in here....this game....... *CENSORED*
Another nice element is the ability to either be friendly or aggressive towards the other life forms(usually both hehe). Do you want to take over nests by wiping out all the other creatures or by forming alliances?? This is mostly how you gain new body parts. Forming friendships or killing other creatures usually makes them drop new body parts although eventually there is nothing left to give in which case they have outlived their usefulness......
To make friends with other creatures you either have to "cuddle" with them by catching these smiley face cloud thingies and rubbing it all over the other creature with the stylus or by dancing together which is done by tapping on these flower petals as these glowing dots pass over them. Of course the further you go in the game the dancing starts to suck because the dots increase in speed and complexity.
Fights are pretty easy, A ring of giant fangs or claws or whatever sprout out of the ground to encircle the combatants. Then you just slash through your enemy with the stylus for a normal attack or click on one of your bio powers if they are available. Using powers takes energy and although there are parts that regenerate your energy using your bio-powers is usually a one or two shot affair. They probably use a % of your energy instead of an actual amount. Your parts also determine your attack power and defense. if you get in over your head you can move to the edge of the ring and then click a red arrow to run away, but you will sacrifice health to do it.
Depending on what type of mouth/s you are using you can refill your health by eating plants and/or meat. Energy can always be refilled by eating specific plants.
About the only other really cool thing about the game are all the goals. The game keeps track of a ton of different tasks and when you complete one you get told in game, you unlock a medal or badge, and you get these "points". You can spend points to unlock special parts and or cheats. Cheats can only be unlocked after you complete the game and I highly recommend saving them till then.
Which brings us to the bad stuff about this game. Should we start with how pathetically short it is or the glitches? How about the fact that you cant backtrack in the stupid game. What about the insanely stupid low level cap??
One thing I wish would have worked different is the body parts. There should have been ways to upgrade body parts(like by eating meat from fallen foes). Usually you just have to stack body parts onto your monster to make it stronger/tougher. 2 mouths, 2 pairs of legs, 2 arms. I mean come on, it looks like crap. All the other creatures use only 1 type of body part. The way they did means that everyones creatures will probably all be using the same body parts by the end of the game. They will all look different but only in proportion and color and position.
So anyways my favorites parts in this game were making friends with a nest of creatures and then killing them and eating them. Then it was making friends with them and making them help me kill members of their own species and then turning on them and killing them. And then my all time favorite moment in the game was when i killed a creature and then chucked the meat it dropped to its buddies who in turn ATE HIM lololol!!!!.
The worst part in the game for me was when....errr guess I shouldnt say....lets just say I had to help defend something and you have to play this stupid minigame and it took me like 5-6 tries before i finally accomplished it. I think that stupid event is what I was doing when my character hit max level lol.
The cheats are pretty cool but since you only get to use them after you beat the game they are pretty pointless. The only fun thing about them is the time and effort it will take you to unlock them, by earning all those badges.
This game was mildy fun to play but there is no way in hell it is worth buying. Maybe when its on ebay for a penny and 3$ shipping lol.
