Interesting idea, terrible strategy game

The Good
The game's idea is excellent; you need to find various animals, sample them, breed them and then attack your opponent with them. You can breed two different kinds of animals to create hybrids (flying Mules, anyone?), strengthen your animals by sampling others, and all sorts of tricks. A wonderful intro movie presents this idea to the player.

The Bad
The implementation. You have to micromanage three-four odd resource systems, while at the same time attacking your opponent with creatures you accidently manage to pickup. It's tedious, it's not fun, and it's boring.
Another problem is the game's special effects. Your team members scream whenever they need help, your animals do all sorts of terrible noises, the narrator has an annoying voice and the music... Don't even mention the music!

The Bottom Line
One of the worst real time strategy I ever played; too bad, because it could've been a successful turn-based game.
