* CrossesTheLineTwice: "Norn Bread" [[GameMod game mods]] resulting from a [[RougeAnglesOfSatin misspelt post]] on a Usenet thread, archived [[https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/alt.games.creatures/w5n3K46wvNQ here]], where there was a joking debate between [[KickTheDog laughably dog-kicking]] Norn-eaters and a just-for-fun AnimalWrongsGroup.

* NightmareFuel: The CruelAndUnusualDeath of falling into the piranha pit in ''3''; it's supposed to be cartoony, with a BigBallOfViolence to [[GoryDiscretionShot cover things up]], but the shredding noises and the fact that your fuzzy Norn (or Grendel, or Ettin) is being ''eaten and torn apart alive'' would make anyone cringe.

* NightmareFuel: NightmareFuel:
** The statue in ''Creatures 2'' is rather impressive by itself. It's huge, depicts a Shee sitting on a throne, looks directly at the camera and has white jewels in place of the eyes, giving it an EmptyEyes effect. The scariest part comes when a creature approaches the statue. Its jewel eyes will turn purple, it'll play an ominous sound and will inflict fear upon the creature. The creature can literally ''die'' of fear if it stays too long near the statue.

** The first instance was during the Website/{{Usenet}} days, where there were many, many [[SarcasmMode totally civil]] debates about whether [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential torturing or neglecting]] Norns, considering the sophistication of their genomes, was cruel.

** Ettins too, depending on whether you find the pale dreadlocks, dark featureless eyes and lack of nostrils creepily cute or just plain creepy.

** Upon details of ''4/Online'' being revealed, the [[TheyChangedItNowItSucks altered]] Norn designs along with the Shee being revealed to be RubberForeheadAliens has drawn a lot of flak.

* CultClassic: Probably one of the biggest in all of gaming. The series remains mostly unknown, but its fanbase is thriving and making mods even after several years without a new game.

* ScrappyMechanic: The power ups in C2 and C3/Docking Station, which unlocked various useful tools and abilities, can only be activated by a creature and are scattered around the map, requiring sometimes extensive creature wrangling in areas containing dangerous plants to get. Creatures Labs eventually released a tool to activate them via script in an add-on for C2, and several third party mods exist to easily activate them in C3/DS.

** Creatures Online as a whole recieved a lot of bile for changing many things, most notably for looking much more like a generic app game than any of the original trilogy.
