Deadly Creatures for Wii

Developer: Rainbow Studios

Publisher: THQ

Console: Wii EXCLUSIVE

Release Date: Dec 22, 2008


This game could be best described as "Discovery Channel on steroids". You play as two insects, a scorpion and a tarantula, each with different gameplay

The scorpion is more action focused, beating the crud out of enemies and even performing finishing moves.

The tarantulas is more stealth/platforming based, and can shoot webs to slow down enemies. You alternate playing each character for each level.

The game mostly takes place in a desert, but eventually you get to explore human buildings, and you even encounter actual humans!


IGN has several previews on their site since the game was announced some time ago, and they all seem positive. I hope that this ends up with the Conduit as examples of great third-party Wii games.

Looks pretty cool so far. Pretty original concept for a game, since bugs don't get nearly as much video game attention as they should.

I remember reading about it in NP a few months back. I've not heard anything new about it since, and have hence forgotten about this little gem. Thanks for bringing this to the public.
