Our take on Impossible Creatures Steam Edition
Its defining mechanic is army construction from animal pairings: the creatures used in battle are assembled from Earth’s animals before they become part of the player’s strategy.
What is Impossible Creatures Steam Edition?
Impossible Creatures is a 3D real-time strategy game set in a fantastical 1930s world.
