Microsoft Game Studios today announced that the official Impossible Creatures site is now live at http://www.microsoft.com/games/impossiblecreatures/.  Visitors will find strange creatures such as tigorpions, hyenbats and spitting cheetahs invading the site. Gamers who have ever wondered what it would be like to see a scorpion with a tiger's head can check out the creatures section, which features many of the thousands of animal combinations possible with Impossible Creatures. The official site also features information about the structures, combat and story elements of Impossible Creatures, along with two versions of a downloadable FSK (Fan Site Kit). Gamers can also find out more information about the mod tools that will soon be available for this unique real-time strategy game.
