Gamespot – From Dust Hands-On Preview – Playing with Fire
In the stylish, downloadable god game From Dust your powers may be divine, but they're far from limitless. The brainchild of game developer Eric Chahi, creator of the classic PC action game Out of This World, this game puts you in control of a benevolent deity called forth by a band of wayward villagers. For those who played Peter Molyneux's Black & White, you'll feel right at home here. However, the only humor you'll find is what you make yourself by tormenting your loyal followers. You can help (or hinder) them by transplanting different types of terrain to guide them through a barren world. We went hands-on with the game and tried to keep the accidental casualties to a minimum.
