If you are an avid gamer that enjoys titles such as Crysis and Call of Duty, then Spore is probably not for you. This game is going to appeal to a wide range of players, possibly the widest range in gaming history. Evolved from the very successful The Sims game, Spore is going to be the ground-breaking game of the year and may possibly become the most played game ever. Spore game designer, Will Wright, has come up with a brilliant concept which is letting you build your very own virtual universe from nothing... but a spore! As the player comes out of one evolutionary phase, what he, or she, did in the preceding phase will strongly affect how they start in the next phase of the spore game. As you work through each step, the tasks will become increasingly more difficult and so this will definitely be a challenging game.

If you enjoyed The Sims with its interactive game play, building and buying stuff, you are really going to be addicted to this new game. You start out with a single cell organism and it is up to you how you evolve your creatures from the primordial soup. I don't think there is such a thing as an end to this game. Once you have your creature, then there is the tribe you can create. From there you can build a civilization and then on to your very own universe and space. At this level gamers will be able to use tools, like water and terra-forming, to tinker with their universe.

There are countless of creations to be made and shared. Upload your own design and let other spore players use them as well. The creation tools that Spore provides you with are going to give you hours, or days, of fun creating, building and sharing your own universe. This game is going to be hugely popular with female gamers and I predict they will eventually rule the Spore cosmos.
