Creatures 3 represents the most advanced artificial life available in a consumer product. The Norns, Grendels and Ettins behave as though they were really alive- they even have their own DNA. Explore a vast living spaceship, discover incredible machines and defend your Norns against a vicious breed of hunting Grendels and some of nature's worst creations! Over a thousand years ago, the ancient civilization of Shee left the world of Albia in a giant spaceship to find a new home. When the Gendels attached them during the flight, they escaped to their new planet's surface, abandoning the Norms and their spaceship in orbit. But the Norns are not alone, and with your help they can thrive. You'll find a host of advanced machines to help you- all of which can be plugged together to make hug automated devices. But watch out for Grendels, a breed of vicious mutants. Remember, even in a virtual world there are real dangers.
