Gameplay

Creature — Octopus

"Before my eyes was a horrible monster, worthy to figure in the legends of the marvellous. . . . Its eight arms, or rather feet, fixed to its head . . . were twice as long as its body, and were twisted like the furies' hair." —Jules Verne, *Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea*, trans. Lewis
