comment |
Steppenwolf: The X-Creatures Project is an episodic, web-based, adventure game developed by Sarbakan and published by Warner Bros. in the early 2000s. Told across six chapters, each containing four playable episodes, the story follows Intrepid Reporter Meg Crimson as she travels the world documenting the existence of near-mythical creatures. On her first assignment in the heart of Africa, her boss advises her to find a scientist named Alan Kane, an expert on cryptozoology who went off the grid years ago and now lives as hermit known as the Steppenwolf. Not all is as it seems though, and it soon becomes clear that Meg and Steppenwolf are pawns in an international conspiracy centred on the X-Creatures Project: a failed scientific experiment based on using the DNA of cryptids to create a serum capable of granting humans immortality….Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Steppenwolf plays like a classic adventure game with the player exploring an environment, gathering/combining items, then using them to solve puzzles which would open up new areas and/or advance the plot. Depending on the episode, the player controls either Meg or Steppenwolf (depending on the chapter) each of whom have slightly different functions. Meg receives emails from various supporting characters which may contain hints or provide background information that helps further the plot. Steppenwolf has a GPS system that functions as a mini-map, giving details on the area and alerting the player to potential threats and enemies. Some episodes also include action segments involving platforming or avoiding various foes, and the final episode of each chapter always focuses on attempting to subdue one of the cryptids.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })What’s notable about the game is the sheer amount of depth the creators put into the story and visuals by the standards of Flash games, with fully-voiced cinematics, many context-specific animations, detailed backgrounds, and a surprisingly engaging Myth Arc that spans the twenty-four episodes.Unfortunately, sometime in the mid-2000s, Warner Bros. took down the site. While the playable episodes can still be found freely available on various online game sites and the Wayback Machine, the numerous biographies and cinematics for the game are quite difficult to find now. All cinematics and many of the biographies can be found on Wayback, but due to broken links and inconsistent URL naming conventions navigating them can be quite difficult.A functional fan reconstruction of the original site with the cinematics, lore and save game functionality restored is available at http://steppenwolf.epizy.com/home.jsp .Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Not to be confused with the band of the same name. |

Rasputinian Death: Reggie. In the final episode, he becomes the Nigh-Invulnerable Heruka. He is — in no particular order — trapped beneath pylons, shot at with a cannon, forced into a cloud of steam, shot with a cannon again, and finally, electrocuted by exposed wires and shot yet again, and finally destroyed. |

Immortality Immorality: Donovan is a sufferer of Werner's Syndrome, and seeks to cure it by injecting himself with a DNA cocktail of various cryptids. He uses Steppenwolf's wife, Shelly, as his personal guinea pig, testing the original samples on her and transforming her into a violent, flesh-eating beast known as the Heruka. |

Butt-Monkey: Derek in the first chapter manages to get shot with poisoned arrows, knocked out with gas, imprisoned, cut with knives in preparation for a sacrificial ritual, nearly sacrificed to a dinosaur, and has to carry heavy luggage. Takes a dark turn at the start of the second chapter when he apparently is killed. |

Doing In the Wizard: Downplayed, but noticeable. The series revolves around cryptids mythical creatures that are often given magical attributes in some form or another, but they're referred to as "beasts of science" in the intro for chapters 3 and 4, and really don't seem to be a whole lot more than animals that the general public simply believes to be myths. It is, however, unclear why the Chupacabra responds to the tune of the Brotherhood's whistle. |

Arc Villain: While Reggie Donovan remains the consistent Big Bad throughout the series, the first chapter sees the main threat in the form of the natives who worship the Mokele Membe, the second chapter has a Tibetan militia looking for the Yeti, and the fourth and fifth have their own villains (respectively, the Dagger League and the Brotherhood) during Donovan's Enemy Mine with Steppenwolf. Derek also serves as this in the first two chapters. |

Corrupt Corporate Executive: While his father was the founder of the X-Creatures Project and responsible for the cover-up of the Heruka incident, Reggie Donovan is — by all evidence — far worse than he ever was. He turned Alan's wife into the bloodthirsty Heruka, tries to stop anyone who comes close to discovering the X-Creatures Project by sending the Albino after them, disturbs the habitat of several strange animals, and has numerous people killed, threatened or blackmailed, all in his quest for immortality. |

comment |
Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": Averted with Steppenwolf, aka Dr. Alan Kane. Meg sometimes calls him by his real name. Played straight with the Albino. |

comment |
Decoy Protagonist: Meg Crimson. While she does eventually become the deuteragonist, the story is very much about Steppenwolf and his past with the X-Creatures project and the Donovan Corporation. |

Expy: Olaf is pretty obviously inspired by Ahab. He wants revenge on the Kraken because it took one of his legs. |

comment |
Non-Malicious Monster: The eponymous X-creatures are really nothing more than animals that have gone unseen by most people. While the Mokele Membe and the Heruka appear to be genuinely hostile, the Yeti and the Kraken actively avoid human contact and the Chupacabra only attacks those marked by the Brotherhood. |
