Finished it again. Just like the last thousand times. Now I tried installing countless mods. Game crashes so much.
Note: Don't install the mod named "YourMom". It just turns every text in the game to "Your Mom".
So, if you are looking to spice up your Spore experience, you don't have to put yourself through the agony of installing countless mods you don't know, like I did. Just install dark injection, auto save and some graphic patches, and tweak some game files to skip the intro and unlock your FPS. On top of it all, install Reshade and you have the ultimate Spore experience.

Ah yes. Spore. The genius creature creator from 2008.
It still remains to this day as one of my favorite god/sandbox games.
The gameplay is quite simple, you start in the cell stage, where you must nurture and grow your species to the next stage and the next after that. The game continues from the cell stage to the creature stage where you must survive the land, feed and mate and collect parts, while befriending or destroying other creatures. After that stage we have the tribal stage, which also ends the evolution segment and starts the social segment, where you must bring your tribe to victory with any means necessary, either friendly or hostile. After the tribal stage we have the civilization stage where you must control a civilization and your goal is the domination of the planet! The Final stage is the sandbox like stage, the Space Stage. This marks the beginning of the exploration and colonization of space, starting with the home system of the creature.
In the end the most fun I had in this game has always been while creating creatures or in the space stage. Other parts are fun, but I find myself usually wanting to get through them as fast as I can. Despite that, the whole game is very entertaining and it's very heavy with nostalgia for myself and probably many others as well.
Great old game, definitely worth the hefty price of 20€ these days as well. Highly recommended.

This was probably the coolest thing ever when i was 10, 7 years later, it still is the coolest thing.
Game crashes a lot, the contrast between gameplay types is jarring, but even so, the game is very charming and fun, and all of the gameplay styles are fun, with the space one being a little lame at the start but really opening up later on
i recommend.

A wonderfully creative game with lots of personality that was too ambitious for it's time and budget.
The game goes through 5 stages that stand alone as completely independent games, all completely unique from each other, but still keeping choices and reactions from every choice you make along the way. This is combined with a creature creator that's unlike anything in any other game on the market. You also create cars, buildings and spaceships. At the end you can even terraform planets. The games is also filled with a wonderfully charming personality and uniqueness that stays with you long after you play the game. As a creative little kid this was one of the most engaging games ever.
However looking at it from an adult view, the game is disappointingly simple in each of it's stages, and should probably have more stages. Going back and playing the game now can only carry my attention for a couple hours, and even then it's mostly carried by nostalgia. It feels like a game that was meant to soar high, but was shot down before it could really rise. I wait for the day when someone makes spore 2 and releases the full potential lol
