Impossible is nothing. If not fun!

<span class="bold">Impossible Creatures</span>, an outrageous RTS that lets you "mesh" around with animal DNA and build your own mutant army, DRM-free on GOG.com. Get it now with the 40% launch discount.




Noah put two of every animal in the Ark. This was cool at the time, but now along comes Rex Chance, a '30s war correspondent, curious to see what happens when you smush two animals into one. Why? Because DNA fusion is fun, and because he thinks there is great untapped potential in these strange pairings. Unfortunately, so does Upton Julius, the megalomaniac villain who stole the mysterious Sigma technology for himself, and is now threatening to conquer the world with his own army of mutant beasts.

Collect animal DNA, build your own unique units, and defeat Julius and his evil lieutenants in 15 different maps stretching across jungles, deserts and snow-ridden landscapes that make up the mysterious Isla Variatas. Create your own menacing winged scorpion, adorable kangaroo-shark, angry horned bear or any other Impossible Creature you desire - the possible combinations are only limited by your own imagination (or gross-out threshold). Then, go online and test your DNA-fusing skills against other wannabe-mad scientists in three different multiplayer modes.




Play God in this 3D hybrid of strategy and creativity, as your <span class="bold">Impossible Creatures</span> march forward, DRM-free on GOG.com. Get them now with a launch discount that will last until next Thursday, December 3rd, 1:59 PM GMT.

Gnostic: For a moment I thought you are referring to the developer of After Reset who sell his other business to fund the game. So I am wondering what is dishonest about him.

I know you probably get the reference but just in case someone doesn't...

I was actually referring to the U.S. president who was known as "Tricky Dick" (see footnote 62 )

JudasIscariot: WINE 1.8-rc1 is my current WINE version.

You will be able to play the single player game just fine BUT the game seems to be affected by this WINE bug. I say this because the first thing that pops up in my termina; is the following error"

err:ole:COMPOBJ_DllList_Add couldn't load in-process dll L"C:\\windows\\system32\\dpnet.dll"

Googling "dpnet.dll" brought me to this page: http://wiki.winehq.org/DirectPlay

So no multi-player under WINE but the single player mode works quite well :)

But did you test the multiplayer portion, though? :)

tokisto: Oh, amazing! Thanks Judas and vv221!
Wow, I thought I edited that post :/

Anyways, just use "winetricks directplay" in order to get the multiplayer portion working :)

(I wrote this in case I missed an edit somewhere :D)

eiii: I've never heard about this game, but it looks crazy enough to consider it. :)

Nice release, Nordic and GOG, even with German language support!
(still waiting for that support on several other Nordic games I own on GOG, especially looking at my Spellforce collection, Silver and the Nations games :P)

Has anybody tried the GOG version under Linux/Wine?
The reports about the retail version on WineHQ are rather mixed, graphics problems, low FPS, high load times, .. But the reports are also quite old.
Hi,

I have :P

WINE 1.8-rc1

1. Run "winetricks directplay" to enable multiplayer in the game.
2. Install the game.
3. Run "wine ICConfig.exe" in case you'd like to tweak your settings for the game.
4. Run "wine IC.exe"
5. Enjoy :)

JudasIscariot: 5. Enjoy :)

As always you are faster than me ...
Only because vv221 and I went through this yesterday :P
