Creature Lab To Soon Terrorize Steam

Developer Image Power will soon be releasing their creation, Creature Lab, upon an unsuspecting world. The video game is fated to hit Steam sometime later this year.

Creature Lab is a “mad scientist sim” that will allow you to grow your own monsters and let them loose upon the populace, then track their progress. With the ability to grow individual parts from a variety of chemicals that are different each game, there are near-endless possibilities to what you can cook up in your lab.

Though it’s tempting to let your creations ravage the countryside immediately, it’s not smart. You lack the resources to make the BIG creations, and you won’t go out to get them yourself for some reason. You must order your monsters to gather resources, and they must do so without being found out too early.

• Single-player Campaign Mode: Embark on a path of a genius, yet wicked scientist whose main goal is to make the ultimate mutagen to turn the entire world into creatures controlled by them. Avoid the government by spreading panic and playing a role in the Dark Web.
• Take on Side Quests with The Dark Webs system: Accept deals from shady corporations to do a variety of tasks such as sending out a specific mutagen or monster into the world. In return, players acquire resources and tokens. Use tokens on the city map to destroy military forces, destroy evidence and more.
• Endless Replayability: No playthrough is alike, chemicals in the lab will constantly change, forcing players to discover hundreds of different mutagens to experiment with.
• Complex Inventory Management: Manage resources and expand your hideout. Send your experiments to collect or steal resources.
• Mad Scientist Simulator with Strategic Elements: Conduct crazy experiments, mix mutagens, grow DNA-based body parts, and attach them to test subjects. Plan accordingly when sending out mutants into the world to carry out missions.

A Kickstarter campaign is currently underway for Creature Lab, but it’s not for the PC version — that version is inevitable; the crowdfunding campaign is meant to finance a possible console version. With three days to go they need a bit more cash; maybe you can help put them over the top. Whether the game comes to consoles or not, it will launch on PC soon.
