In this guide, East is the way where the Dojo is, South is where the crashed boat is, West is where the volcanic region is, and North is where the farm is.The way this will work is I will tell you where you will need to do something, how to do it, and then that will make you all happy. 1a.Tutorial 1aa.Controls How you control the game: Most of the game is simply controlled with the mouse, but you can also use the keyboard for some things. In the tutorial, if there is a move you can do by using the keyboard OR mouse, I will only list the mouse function. Move How to do it Move across ground........Drag move button across ground Change Pitch..............Move mouse to top or bottom of screen and use the move button up or down Rotate Screen.............Move mouse to right or left of screen and use the move button clockwise or counter-clockwise Zoom in/Out...............Use Scrollball OR press move and action button and move forward or back Zoom to Temple............Double-click spacebar Quick Zoom................Double-click move button on desired location Save Angle................Ctrl+1,2,3... on desired location Action....................Action button Describe Object...........F1 over desired object Zoom out to view island...F3 Main room of Temple.......F4 Creature Cave.............F5 Challenge Center..........F6 Save Room.................F7 Options...................F8 Library...................F9 Main Menu.................Esc 1ab.Creature Probably the most noticable features of Creature Isle and Black and White is the amazing AI of the Creature. You can make him evil or good, which offers a lot of variety. There are three ways to teach him stuff: #1:The Leash of Learning: While you have this on, he will pay attention more than normal to you. Good for learning Miracles. #2:Good Boy! or Bad Boy! Once he does something you think will affect whether he will be good or evil, you can slap him or praise him. To slap him, use the action button on him until there is data shown. Then, move your hand quickly from left to right. This will tell him he did something wrong. To praise him, do the same except move the hand up and down. #3:Watching the Villagers: Tie him up to the village store. He will watch the villagers and you don't have to watch him. There are 3 different leashes you can use. Depending on which one you use, your creature may turn evil or good. #1:The Fluffy Leash of Compassion This makes your creature nice and good hearted. Tie him up with this leash to the village store and he'll try to take care of their needs. #2:The Leash of Agression This makes your creature bad and malicious. Use the action button on a building to make him destroy it. #3:The Leash of Learning: While you have this on, he will pay attention more than normal to you. Good for learning Miracles. You can make your creature learn any miracle you do, make disciples that you make(more on that later),and basically, can do anything you can. It just takes a little time. He may seem small when you first get him, but at the end, you will have a huge, powerful creature. 1ac.Villages Your boundary of power is marked by your Influence. The way to make more Influece is to raise your villages. There are many village building you can make to expand your influence. You build these buildings by placing scaffolds around the town. The greater number of scaffolds, (generally)the better the building is and the more Influence is given. # of Scaffolds Building Description 1 Adobe/House Increases maximum population, allows more pregnant villagers. 2 Large Adobe Same as Adobe, but it is more effective and large. 3 Civic Buildings There are 4 civic buildings: Creches, Workshops, Village Stores and Graveyards. Creches protect the young'uns until they're are adults. Workshops creates scaffolds for a price of wood. Village Stores store food and wood.Graveyards make the villagers not mourn when someone dies. Each civic building except for the workshop can be built only once in each village. 4 Field Grow food. 5 Village Center Creates new town. 6 Miracle Dispenser Stores a miracle and creates one shot miracles. 7 Wonder Increases Influence massively and gives a certain bonus, depending on the culture of the town. 8 Soccer Field Makes bored villagers happy. There are different cultures of villagers. Each one makes a different wonder. There are many different villages that don't believe in you yet, so you have to impress them in a variety of ways to gain their influence. You can monitor your impression by putting your hand over their village center. 1ad.Miracles You can cast Miracles or spells to impress a town and/or destroy the town. There are two ways to cast miracles: One time miracles and Gestures. One time miracles come from miracle dispensers. Gestures are cast by your villagers prayer power. You can get prayer power by raising your totem or sacrificing villagers. You move the mouse in a certain symbol and that will tell the computer what miracle you want to cast. If you do not have enough prayer power, your miracle will not be available. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2.Walkthrough- Here we go, hang on tight and enjoy the ride! The story begins by seeing those demanding idiots on the boat from the first game. Fortunately, it crashes on Creature Isle, an Island full of godless creatures, therefore, no competition. The sailors talk to the natives and get you and your creature over to that island. Now the fun begins... 2a.-The Beginning: After the opening cinema, take your creature over to the Dojo at the southeast of the island(it looks like a big building will stones in a ring around it)and activate the Gold Story Scroll. Rufus will talk to you about the Brotherhood, Eve, Creature Isle, and how you get into the Brotherhood. 2b.-Trial 1:The Egg: Look in the first town(Egyptian); you should see a scroll. Activate it. They will tell you to knock an egg-in the southeast of the island-off a tree. Near the crashed boat there is a rock. Break it. Make your creature pick it up and head to the egg. With the rock in the creature's hand, make him throw it at the egg by using the action button on the egg. If you zoom out, you should see a volcanic region on the island. Make your creature pick the egg up and bring it to the volcanic region. There should be an area in that region where steaming gas pouts out constantly. Put the egg there. The egg takes a while to incubate, so we'll take care of the next Trial while we wait. (continued on 2d) 2c.-Trial 2: Cow Bowling: Very close to the incubator, there is a cow next to a bowling alley. Bring your creature there and activate the scroll. It's time to bowl! Throw the marker where you want your creature to throw the bowling ball. The game is fairly easy, but it may take a few tries. *STRATEGY*: Try to throw powerfully and aim just a little offcenter in either directions. Once you win, the cow's plinth will be activated at the Dojo. (The following is an addition sent in by King Krang Kong) You can use rocks to block the cow's throw and to knock down pins. 2d.-Lil' Tyke: After you bowl, the egg should be done incubating, so walk over to the egg and move your hand over it. If the bad conscience doesn't say anything yet, you have to wait longer. Once the creature is born, you will see a small video and end up in a wheat field. Have your creature eat it until Tyke knows how to eat. Then, you have to show Tyke how to use the village store. To do this, use the Leash of Compassion and hook it up to the village store. Your creature will show Tyke how to use it, but to speed up the process, simply sacrifice townspeople(by going to the temple and putting the people in the saucer outside of the temple) and use the food and water miracles in the village store. After he has learned that, teach him 4 miracles out of the six available. *STRATEGY*: You should try to get Tyke to learn all six, but if you don't want to, here's some tips: If you want to be a ruthless, killing machine who doesn't care about the consequences, teach Tyke Lightning, Fireball, Water, and Heal. If you want to be a caring, gentle creature who wants to do good, teach Tyke Heal, Water, Food, and Wood. You can also teach him to fish and dance right now. Now, you can't do anything with Tyke for a while, so we'll some the other Trials(continued on 2m) 2e.Trial 3:Horse Farming: WAAAAAYYYYY on the other side of the island is a horse who is trying to get into the Brotherhood, but he still has to water his plants, so you volunteer to grow them for him. This is a fairly easy trial, but it is loooooonng. After the crops have grown, the horse will activate his plinth at the Dojo and you can eat his crops if you want to. *STRATEGY*: When it becomes sundown of each day, start to walk over to the farm. Since it takes awhile to get over there, you might as well get there early. When you get there, water each field once. Once you have watered the plants for the day, you can do what you want for the rest of the day, such as training Tyke or doing other Trials. Repeat this process over a couple of days. 2f.Trial 4:Sheep Herding: Near the Japanese town(the one with the tall grey tower), there is a Sheep who needs all of his sheep brought back to their pen. The only problem with this is, you can't pick them up and neither can your creature or Tyke. So, you have to herd them. The Wolf will try to take as many sheep as possible and drop them off far away, but they walk back. This is actually a pretty hard Trial. Once you get all 10 sheep in the fences, the sheep will turn on his plinth. *STRATEGY*:Once you get a single sheep in the fences, it will not escape(THANK YOU LIONHEAD!!!), so just take the sheep one at a time. The best way of herding them is to get behind them. They will run in the opposite direction. Watch the sheep carefully, and if it changes track, get behind it again and chase it into the fences. It gets harder and harder with each sheep. 2g.Trial 5:Wolf Chasing: Pretty close to Trial 4 is the Wolf. He will challenge you to a game of Hide and Seek. The only problem is that he is invisible. Once you spot him 3 times in a row, he will activate his plinth. This is an easy Trial. *STRATEGY*:The reason this is easy is because it is easy to follow him. There are 3 ways to spot him: 1.Sound-You can hear the wolf howl every couple of seconds. 2.Tracks-If you're close enough to him, you will se his most recent tracks. 3.Sight-You can see some stank coming off of him(good to use if you're far away) 2h.Trial 6:Tortoise Racing: At the stadium near the Dojo, there is a Tortoise willing to race you. The only rules are that you go between the gates that mark the track. He will use everything at his disposal to slow you down, like Freeze miracles. Once you beat him at his own game, he will activate his plinth at the Dojo. Doing this the honest way is REALLY HARD, so look at the strategy to learn how to cheat. *STRATEGY*:After the second or third gate, to the left is a shortcut that cuts off about half the track. Use this, and you're almost guaranteed to win. 2i.Trial 7:A Zebra, a goat-man, and a gun This is one of the most fun and funny Trials in this game. Near the horse Trial(have you been keeping up with your daily chore of watering the plants?), there is a zebra with a crossbow-like machine. Activate the scroll and learn about this goat man who needs three flowers that aren't accesible by walking. How will we get to them? BY FLYING!! You have to put this deformed man into a cannon and blast him to where to flowers are. However, this is not as easy as it sounds. It will take many tries to try to get to these flowers. Once the man has the 3 flowers, he will become undeformed :( and the Zebra will activate his plinth at the Dojo. *STRATEGY*:The first flower is directly in front of you, but in the distance. The bottom pointer should be just a little bit above the mountain. Give it full power(Even if you miss, it's still hilarious to see this guy falling down the mountain screaming for his life). The second flower is to the right. Line up your sights with the light the place gives off and aim a little bit higher than usual. Give full power. The third flower is behind you, behind the mountain. Aim as far up as you can go, to the right of the pointy rock. This time, only give about 48% power. 2j.Trial 8:Mandrill soccer: I do not like this one. This Trial is frustrating. Anyway, the Trial activates in the same place as Trial 7 right after you complete it. You must kick a soccer ball through three targets and a goal. To block your way, there are 3 mandrills that will throw your ball the other way. Also, there are volcanic geysers that will catch your ball and toss it around. Once you are finished with this very hard Trial, the mandrill will activate his plinth at the Dojo. *STRATEGY*: Not much I can say here. Rotate the camera if you need to. When you get to the end, just be careful not to click the cancel scroll. I did that once, it made me MAD! 2k.Trial 9:Leopard Board Game: If you zoom out, you will see a large white mountain with little tiles on it. At the base of the mountain, there is a leopard waiting for you. Talk to him, and you understand the leopard's problem. He needs to get to the top of the mountain, but the only way is to beat the ogre at his own game-Board Games. The first one to the top wins. Once you win this trial, the leopard goes to the Dojo to activate his plinth. This trial is based on luck, so it can range from easy to hard. *STRATEGY*:As I said before, the game is based on luck, but there is a way to get sixes easily. Apply just enough force to roll the die so that it rolls over to a six. 2l.Trial 10:Monkey Guarding: There is Japanese Wonder around the area of the soccer trial(If you see 2 close together, you're in the wrong place. That is Trial 11. Keep looking.). You should see a brown monkey that tells you about how some giants want to destroy the Wonder. You have to guard the tower from the giants. Basically, it's a juggling game. Once you do this, the monkey's plinth is activated at the Dojo. This is a moderately easy trial. *STRATEGY*: Once your creature walks to a stone, the giant walking there will back off. Once the creature moves to a different stone, however, the giant will come back. At first, simply keep the guys off your back. Once two guys have stopped trying, concentrate on one giant until the other one gets pretty close to a stone, then scare that one away. Once the giant is far away to leave alone, go back to the one you were concentrating on earlier. Repeat this process until the one you concentrate on stops trying. Then, just stay at the other one. 2m.Tyke Training FINALLY!!! We get to finish Tyke's training. Near Trial 10, there is a desert/beach. There are 4 monkeys there that will teach you how to build. Just strap the leash up to it, and wait. While they are learning how to build, they will also learn how to make Fireball and Lightning about halfway. After their lesson, talk to the guy in the Egyptian wonder. He will make Tyke raise his plinth. Now you can become the chicken. 2n.Trial 11:Gorilla Bashing Near where the four monkeys taught you how to build, there is a Gorilla that wants to challenge you to a destruct-a-thon. You must destroy 4 houses and a wonder before the Gorilla does. If your creature's strength is bigger than the destruction left behind it, the Gorilla's plinth is activated. This is a fairly hard trial. *STRATEGY*:Before you challenge him, put on the Leash of Aggression and your creature will be like a creature from hell! Simply right click on the house you want to destroy. The house qualifies as "destroyed" when there is no more shiny powdery stuff coming off of the structure. To destroy the Wonder, grab a big stone and chuck it at that big old hunk of Japanese junk. It may take a few times to win, so don't get discouraged. 2o.Trial 12:Saving Bears isn't easy... ...until you cheat(explained in STRATEGY). Near the Japanese town there is a bear who needs rescuing. He is tied to a windmill that you must destroy. If you try to enter from the front, either a pack of wolves will spot you, or a wise man will hear you. Once you figure out how to save the bear, the plinth will be activated. Unless you cheat, this is VERY HARD. *STRATEGY*:Take over the Japanese town. Using the Teleport miracle, put one of them in the town and one next to the bear. Using a leash, click next to a bear. He will use the Teleport miracle to end up next to the bear. Destroy the windmill, and you're done. 2p.Trial 13:Polar Bear's Polar Winds Go to where the crashed boat was. Hey! It's fixed now! But the crew has gone missing. With the help from the Good Conscience and his ability to blow(don't laugh, these guys want to go home!), you can pick up their friends at the different docks around the island. After all five of the crewmates are picked up, the Polar Bear will activate his plinth. This is VERY HARD. *STRATEGY*:Where your hand is, that's where the wind will blow. If you touch land, you will fail and start from where you picked up the most recent crewmate. Press S to get a general view of where the sailors are. Another good way to find them is by storms. The men are usually very close to storms. Just circle the island by starting west and you will eventually get all five of them. This is the order my game found the crewmates, it may be different for your game. I'm not sure. #1: This guy is easy to find. he is found on the southwest beach next to where you start. #2: The next one is a little more hidden, but still easy to find. He is in the gulf located around the corner of the island. #3: This guy is just a little harder to get to. On the west side of the island, there is a mouth that goes in quite a bit. Go through it, but be careful. He is at the end of that river. #4: This guy is hard to get to. Navigate your way SLOWLY through the small river you start in and then go north. Pass the first storm you see and go to the second. Go right past it and around the small island. Get the sailor from the other side instead of risking the bat through the storm. Trust me on this one. #5: The last one is pretty close. Follow the coast of the mainland and then very soon there will be an island just off the coast. He's on that one. 2q.Trial 14:Rhino Rampage In a valley between two mountains, there is a rhino who wants to fight you. The fight is different from all the other fights because this rhino has The Source. The Source is one of the hardest thing to beat. The fight is very hard to beat unless your creature is very strong. Once you beat the rhino, you get his plinth activated. *STRATEGY*:Become the leopard. Queue a bunch of attacks on his head with a few special attacks as well. When you have about 1/2 of your health left, cast heal. Never get discouraged, or else he will win. 2r.Trial 15:Marbles: The game of champions Near the 4th crewmate, there is a Orangitang(I think) who wants to play you in a game of marbles. You aim for a certain point on the board, and your creature will throw the marble there. The marble won't necessarliy land there, however. It will roll into a spot. This is a pretty hard trial. Should you win against him, he will activate his plinth at the Dojo. Get ready for the last trial. *STRATEGY*:Aim in the middle of the blue section to get dead center. If he gets a dead center, try to knock it out of place. It will take many tries to win. 2s.The Final Trial After you win all the other trials, you will face Rufus. You must take a ring, bring it to the top. Repeat twice. It's not this easy, though. There are ogres scattered all over the mountain, and If you get caught by them, you will be frozen for 40 seconds. Trying this trial the honest way is near impossible, so we must cheat. Should you win, the lion's and the alligator's plinthes will be activated and the credits will roll. Congratulations! You have beaten Black and White: Creature Isle! Or have you? *STRATEGY*:To cheat, pick up a ring and go back to the base level. Go AROUND the rock by walking through the water. Walk up the ramp and place the ring at the marking. Repeat. You may be frozen by an ogre, but it won't matter. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 3.The Aftermath WARNING!! SPOILER ALERT!!! After you beat the Rufus, the alligator will want to fight you. Since he has the Source, just use the same strategies as Trial 14. He is quite easier than the rhino, however. Now you get your chance to meet Eve(SCORE!). Your creature and Eve will go behind a hill and come out with a smaller creature (I wonder how THAT happened?)than the one you used to beat the alligator with. This is your new apprentice. He has all the skills as Tyke, and he's not a chicken(does it get any better?). You can continue using your apprentice and teach him almost anything you want. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 4.Secrets This is a new section, so it's pretty short right now. Anyway, you can try these out, but some may be hard to do. The Gauntlet Beat all of the creatures at the Dojo and you get something called the gauntlet. All I know about it is that when the rhino tells you how to use it after you beat everybody, it's looks cool. Cow Bowling Fireballs At Cow Bowling, throw the marker lightly. When fire throws the marker off the screen, right click on the fire. Sometimes, you can pick up a fireball spell. It takes a bit of practice though, and it only works until you beat that trial. Infinite Fireballs This worked on Black and White, so I'm not sure it works anymore. Throw a Fireball spell. When it has grazed a building, pick it up. The building will still be on fire, but you will still have the Fireball with no loss! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - That pretty much sums it up. Anyway, thanks for using my guide. It was fun(sob). Sincerely, peacekid(austin_abrams@hotmail.com) Read the copyright notice at the top of the guide for information.
