About the game

Will Wright's Spore takes your creature from a cell in the ocean to a space empire across five stages. Its creature creator is legendary, even if the game around it is thinner than the hype.

Kit's verdict · 7.5/10The greatest creature creator ever made, glued to five shallow games. Kit · Sadkitty Games

Loved

  • Creature creator is magical
  • Huge galaxy full of player-made creatures
  • A sense of scale nothing else matches

Not so much

  • Middle stages are shallow
  • Space stage turns into a chore

Play it if anyone who wants to design life and fly it through space.

Skip it if players wanting a deep strategy game.
