3.0 out of 5 stars I didn't read it...just bought it because my brother wanted it, July 9, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Impossible Creatures: Sybex Official Strategies & Secrets (Paperback)
this game is alright, but it wouldn't let me and my brother install the insects add-on and we couldn't really play the game to its full potential...so there wasn't really a need to read it...but from what it's worth, it is a basic strat guide...we just used it for the stats on the animals...I wouldn't buy it again because it is an out-dated game that this goes to...neat to a point...
