- This is an entry about an artificial life computer program series. For the gothic side project of Siouxsie & the Banshees, see The Creatures. For Elf Power's 2002 album, see Creatures (album).

Creatures is an artificial life (alife) computer program series, created in the mid-1990s by English computer scientist Steve Grand whilst working for the Cambridge computer games developer Millennium Interactive. The program is regarded as an important breakthrough in the advancement of alife research.
Overview
In Creatures, the user 'hatches' small furry creatures called Norns into a world called Albia, and teaches them how to talk, feed themselves, and protect themselves against vicious creatures called Grendels. Later games in the series introduced a third species, the Ettins. More on [ Creatures ]
