Explore, Interact, and Grow with
Pocket Creatures for iPhone and iPod Touch

Exotic Open-world Sim from
Tactile Entertainment, Founded by development lead on Crysis

Tactile Entertainment, a leading
iPhone game developer founded by a former lead member of Crytek, today unveiled
their first title, an open-world pet sim called, Pocket Creatures. A Pocket
Creature is an interactive creature that inhabits an exotic island in your
iPhone or iPod Touch. On this island you’ll find a variety of plants and animals
to interact with and explore. As you discover new things to do, you will notice
how it affects your creature’s unique abilities and its relationship with its
surroundings. Pocket Creatures is about experimentation, exploration and
discovery.

“Our philosophy in founding Tactile
Entertainment was to bring a new kind of game to the iPhone platform,” said
Asbjoern Soendergaard, Founder and CEO of Tactile Entertainment. “With Pocket
Creatures we feel that we will set a new benchmark for visual fidelity and
deliver weeks of open ended gameplay that will change the way everyone thinks
about gaming on the iPhone.”

Start your Pocket Creature adventure
by choosing its color and hatching it from its egg. After that, it’s up to you
to guide your Creature through its new island habitat. What it eats, when it
eats, when it sleeps, what you teach it to love or hate; all can influence its
behavior and appearance. Make friends with nearby animals and use them as fun
tools to explore the surrounding environment. You can even plant a garden with
mysterious seeds that produce magical fruit, providing your Creature with
special abilities it can use to change its environment, and discover new objects
and surprising abilities.

Pocket Creatures contains the
following key features:

  • Teach your Creature which objects
    are good or bad with positive/negative feedback

  • Create your own magical garden
    where you and your creature can thrive

  • Watch your Creature develop
    powerful moods and abilities that can be used to manipulate its surroundings

  • Earn achievements and change the
    look of your creature; get horns, wings, flowers, ancient jewelry and many
    others
