Summary
Game Description
Will Wright invented the simulation category with SimCity, then perfected it with The Sims. Now Wright's team is whipping up an ambitious new game that will take players from single-celled simplicity to imperialistic galactic colonization. Spore's flexible Creature Creator, available in a free "lite" version or a $10 download, allows you to build your own dream alien. You can then upload your beast to the Sporepedia or YouTube for all to see. The full game is still rather mysterious, but it's got a galaxy full of potential.

Spore isn't Poor
Getting used to Spore is really easy. Spore is all great and stuff. I mean, who could NOT enjoy a fun way of seeing the "human" evolution from cells? I wouldn't. However, Spore does have some bad stuff. The levels are REALLY long (especially the Creature stage). And the game is REALLY repetitive. All you do is go around, eat stuff, go around, find new parts, go around, eat stuff, and so on. BUT, it is pretty addicting. The Creature stage may be long, but it's fun because you can make Allies and Enemys. And the multiplayer is OK, but no text chat.

Awesome!
What can i say? It's the best game i've ever played since Starcraft. The only flaw i found was where i was going over mountains or leaving the atmosphere of a planet, the camera freaked out.

Great for Kids
Spore is an another project for kids.
You will create a monster as it comes from your imagination and as we know its not built for teens and adults but i know it will satisfy all the kids because of the cute sounds and nice graphics and it's quite fun and addicting! But they should improve the other contents like story and more body parts. But for me its boooring. because of lack of enjoyment. You will kill monster and you will grow then create your own colony and then nothing to happen. But if you go online is quite enjoying because you see other players creations and i know all of us will be inspired when we see other player creations. There are no problems about the control
I rate this game as 7/10
