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.
