About this game

Create a Creature is Eduardo Pinho's 2025 DOS character-making toy. The title invites you to create a named creature, then opens a simple editor with a live character preview. There is no scrolling course to navigate: the activity is choosing the creature's appearance.

Use Up and Down to select Shape, Color, Eyes, Mouth, Legs or Arms. Left and Right change the selected feature, and the small preview shows the result. Work through the choices in any order, comparing a new feature with the rest of the character before moving on.

When the design is ready, select Done and press Enter. The next screen presents the completed creature with its name and an Enter-to-continue prompt. Press Enter to return and make another combination. The opening menu also includes Exit when you are finished.
