The Creature can harvest, build, entertain, fight, specialize in one of these fields or just wander aimlessly, eat rocks and trees, gag and poop randomly. Each action it considers to do can be encouraged or discouraged by the player (by slapping or petting) so that a creature does something always/frequently, occasionally, rarely or never. is much more advanced now and revolves around 'lessons' learned. The player once again has an animal avatar of his choice (between Lion, Ape, Wolf and Cow) which can be trained or left to its own devices. An evil god will recruit armies and conquer them. A good god will improve the city of his followers and eventually attract the inhabitants of neighbouring hamlets, be they neutral or even hostile.

The player assumes yet again the role of a God and chooses if he will be Good, Evil or something in between.Īs a deity that interferes directly with mortal affairs, the player will help his followers, the Greeks, survive and prosper in a mythical land.

The sequel to Lionhead's open-ended god game, Black & White, attempts to offer more focused gameplay and larger scale.
