Lionhead Studios' innovative game Black and White , those questions can finally be answered as the opportunity to assume the role of a mighty deity is now a reality. The game offers an extremely unique experience taking on the role of an omnipotent being in which you acquire your power from the faith of your people and your ultimate goal is to spread your influence to other peoples and cultures. Black and White contains several different cultures that include the Aztecs, the Japanese, the Tibetans, the Native Americans, the Norse, the Celts, and the Egyptians. Though there aren't a lot of cultural aspects featured, each culture has unique architecture, wonders, and dance rituals that they perform while worshipping at a temple.
Miracles are one of the most interesting and spectacular aspects of the game.
You can perform a multitude of miracles like creating rain to help grow trees and crops, creating wood or food to supply the villagers, or even blast those damned little maggots with a fun-filled fireball and watch the people scream and run frantically with an evil grin. Playing evil can be loads of fun when you're armed with super-destructive miracles. A lot of the objects are interactive as well. You can carry and throw stones, trees, animals, and even villagers. You can also grab fish from the ocean and grain from the fields.
