The property has already been targeted for post-release expansion packs, Wii, and iPhone adaptations are already underway. While there is no hard ending that acts as an end to gameplay, the final space section culminates in a one-off meeting at the galactic core where you are rewarded with the terraforming staff of life item.ĮA is already planning Spore not just as a game but an entire franchise. Will Wright has stated that the game's overall goal is to get to the center of the galaxy, and that the game does, in fact, have an ending. Cities are built, technology is researched, and eventually the player's species becomes capable of space flight the player is able to first explore and colonize their home solar system and later, the entire galaxy. Eventually, the creature evolves to the point of sentience, and a new gameplay mode begins in which the species establishes its own civilization. From this point on, the player has the ability to change the physical shape of the creature, giving it different evolutionary traits depending on what path the player wants his life form to take. The player begins the game in the form of a microscopic organism that arrives on a planet via exogenesis or panspermia, deposited in the primordial oceans by a meteorite impact. I haven't had any problems with the DRM but I only have it installed on one computer and I only have one account on the computer.įor someone who is a casual sim player I highly recommend it.Spore is the latest game from the prodigious brain of Will Wright and aims to simulate the development of an entire species. The background graphics are a little shoddy and buggy at times but I am OK with that given cool creatures all over the world. Well my question is, what are you comparing it to? For a casual sim/RTS it is awesome! The creature graphics are very slick, the bio-mechanics in the creatures is really fun to tweak as you go through the creature stage.
But after spend a handful of hours with Spore I am very pleased and addicted.Ī vocal minority are screaming that it is "dumbed down" and over-simplified. Spore had an Everest of hype to which it obviously fell short, games with that much hype rarely deliver. Granted I have not devoted thousand of hours of my life to Warhammer, WoW, or StarCraft but I have casually played my fair share of sims. I have been reading all the negative reviews and I honestly don't get it. Regardless its still a game that is very cool in many ways and in the long run this game will only have a positive impact on videogames in general. I wont deny that this game was ovehyped and I wont deny that it has problems. That is the evolution of games and I for one think that this game was a legitimate step forward in many aspects. Some company, maybe even the company that made Spore will take this concept, look at what spore did and what it did wrong and they will improve upon it. Some people like it and some dont but there is one thing that is undeniable and that is that Spore will influence future games just as Spore itself was influenced by previous games and that is a very good thing because these are games that have a lot of thought going into them and they are games that are really trying to make games so much more than they currently are. Sure this game could have been much better but as with any game that really tries to push the envelope of gaming, some hit, some miss and some fall somewhere in between like Spore. I for one like to step back and take a look at the bigger picture. Wow everyone seems to be complaining about this game.
