I can't believe I only found out about this recently. One of my favourite games from back in the day, Impossible Creatures, is now available on Steam, complete with added Steam multiplayer and all the DLC for the original. It's an RTS where you combine animals in different ways to build armies, then, as is the way with RTS games, destroy the other player's base. The graphics are of course terrible nowadays, but they were okay for the early 2000s. Gameplay probably isn't quite as good as I remember, but I remember it being excellent so maybe it's still pretty good. I also never actually finished the campaign, which this now gives me a chance to do.

Omg I was thinking about this too! I have recently watched a lot of this game. This could be helpful when they turn into multicellular?

Visit its Steam Store page and it should show you the price in your preferred currency. For reference it's Β£8.99 in good old British money.

alright so it isn't too much money if I convert that to US dollars. Actually that's the price I bought Spore for a second time. (I had to get a second copy to finally make a spore account.) I wonder if eelhounds, badgermoles and other creatures from "Avatar: The last Airbender" are possible? [EDIT2]: I got the game because my dad still owes me money. I'm probably going to keep spending it until he doesn't owe me anything. [edit3]: Me makes Mooselion. :3

The graphics still look fine, in my opinion. It's aged better than some games. I recently rebought this on GOG ( link). On there it's DRM-free, only Β£6.89. Original version with patches, so all the old mods still work. Creature Chaos & Insect Invasion are the big ones to try out. GOG take old games, update them with support for modern computers (and OSX sometimes), and make them available for download DRM-free. No client or online checks, just the game. Might be preferable to Steam for some people. Impossible Creatures summary, for anyone interested: You first build an army in the editor, then when you start a game you can select an army to use. In the campaign, you build up a single persistent army using creatures you collect from the islands you travel through. The game has a sense of humour, and, in my opinion, quite a difficult campaign (I got stuck in later levels, beat it once with cheats). Really a great game, worth a try for anyone who likes Thrive. EDIT: multicellular already?
