Get your Freakémon on in Freaky Creatures.
While
most MMOs tend to get lumped into clearly defined genres based on
either core gameplay elements or setting, there are those rare few that
ultimately defy such easy classifications. This can be due to a myriad
of factors such as a unique artistic style, or simply turning the
conventional concept of what defines an MMO on its ear. Once again proving an insatiable appetite for all things MMO, Reuben “Sardu” Waters recently took a bite out of the MMO burrito known as Freaky Creatures, an upcoming game that uniquely blends the familiar with the bizarre:
Think of Freaky Creatures as a strange Pokémon trip set in space, with the addition of customizable lairs that are a cross between EQ2-style player housing and a Sims mini-game. Lairs can act both as a social hub as well as a place to do things like tickle your creature until it passes out from exhaustion. You can also feed them all sorts of bizarre foods from a menu that changes daily, many of which your creatures will refuse to eat depending on which flavor of slugs they prefer. The only thing really missing from giving this aspect of FC the full Sims treatment is the lack of a bathroom for your creature to constantly nag you about needing to use.
