Create universal wonder in Spore, an exciting new simulation game that lets you develop your own personal universe. Work your way through five evolutionary phases, including Cell, Creature, Tribe, Civilization and Space, that offer unique challenges, thrills and goals. For example, you can start in Cell and nurture one species from a simple aquatic organism all the way until it becomes a sentient life form. Or you can jump right in and begin building tribes and civilizations on multiple planets. What you do with your universe is totally up to you.

The powerful creation tools of Spore are easy to use, allowing you to effortlessly design every aspect of your universe. Creatures, vehicles, building and even starships are all within your grasp. While Spore is a single-player game, your creations and other players' creations are automatically shared between your galaxy and theirs, offering a nearly limitless number of worlds to visit and enjoy. You can also go online to view the incredible things other players have made and can even pull those items into your universe. Spore gives you the chance to make worlds and beings that evolve, grow and delight you every step of the way.




Rating: - Attention!!
Do not listen to other reviews! This game is very fun despite what anyone says. It has the greatest custimizing system out there. You do very fun arcade like gamplay in cell stage as a fish like creature. In creature stage you are in a 3D world inhabbited by built in creaturs and creatures made by other players. After you custimize your creature for the last time, you move on to tribal stage. Tribal stage is real time strategy where you control all of your creatures. Then you go to civilization phase ...

Rating: - Excellent Computer Game, Not Many Shortcomings
When I heard the news about SPORE, I immediately decided to purchase it when it came out. However, I became slightly discouraged by (a) the repetitive creature creator and (b) the anti-secuROM reviews on this website. As a result, I was a bit reluctant, but I ended up purchasing the game. When I installed the game with no difficulties, I was pleasantly surprised. The game was not overly simplistic, and most of its elements I found to be very fun, with only a few shortcomings.

All stages (besides ... Read More

Rating: - Fun didn't last very long
The game starts off very fun: creating, growing, surviving. The game takes you through different gameplay styles from 3rd person action adventure to RTS style gameplay. However, the missions remain the same and as you progress through the game it gets tedious and boring. 3 Stars for the game. 1 Star overall for the use of SecuRom.

Rating: - A 14 yr. olds Review of a HORRIBLE game
When I first heard of Spore I was very excited because all of the reviews had been positive praising the games ability to let the user evolve the creature, and also sculpt huge empires. I was hugely disappointed when I played the game. My favorite games in the past have been the Age of Empires series as well as the Civilization series. When I heard of sculpting an empire and having your own creatures living inside of it I was absolutely pulled into the huge net that EA and Will Wright had spun. The truth is, ... Read More

Rating: - My kids LOVE this game
OK, so it was purchased as a present for my husband, but its actually my 6 and 8yo boys who adore this game. They play it almost daily, and even have friends come over to "watch". It definitely, to me, is great for younger kids, and I would ignore the 10+ rating. My 10yo daughter likes it too. I can understand the low marks this game received since it was marketed to adults but is really a child's game. I love the concepts it has taught my kids about life, life cycles, and evolution.
