Create universal wonder in Spore, an exciting new simulation game that lets you develop your own personal universe. Work your way through five evolutionary phases, including Cell, Creature, Tribe, Civilization and Space, that offer unique challenges, thrills and goals. For example, you can start in Cell and nurture one species from a simple aquatic organism all the way until it becomes a sentient life form. Or you can jump right in and begin building tribes and civilizations on multiple planets. What you do with your universe is totally up to you.

The powerful creation tools of Spore are easy to use, allowing you to effortlessly design every aspect of your universe. Creatures, vehicles, building and even starships are all within your grasp. While Spore is a single-player game, your creations and other players' creations are automatically shared between your galaxy and theirs, offering a nearly limitless number of worlds to visit and enjoy. You can also go online to view the incredible things other players have made and can even pull those items into your universe. Spore gives you the chance to make worlds and beings that evolve, grow and delight you every step of the way.

Finally all that hard work creating the perfect being can be put to good use. Import creatures that you created with the Spore Creature Creator and watch them live, breath and thrive in the full version of Spore.

Customer Reviews

I *was* jazzed about this game
Honestly, I came here to get a price and, maybe, purchase the game based on the previews. Then I saw that the game uses one of these virus-like DRM schemes. What a shame. I guess I won't be purchasing Spore until EA pulls it's collective head out of it's nether regions and realizes people don't like to have unwanted cripplewear installed when they *purchase* a game.

DRM? You're kidding me. Way to FAIL.
Unbelievable. I came here ready to shell out $50 for the game. Literally, my credit card is on the table. If it's good, I was going to buy two more copies for my sisters whose birthdays are this month.

FORGET IT. DRM that is based on changes of certain piece of hardware is the most draconian, backwards form there is.

Dear EA: Instead of selling this game and gaining customers who would tell others about it... you've managed to do almost the exact opposite. You've alienated your fan base and created a small army of people who will warn other potential customers about the aggressive DRM.

80$ coaster
after buying the 79$ "galatic version, I dioscover that EA thinks im a thief. How could I possible have the temerity to want to intall the game on my computer..

btw: the drm broke my cd burner. I can no longer burn discs due to a "system protection error:

thanks, I needed that.. great game, fun and all that but DRM sucks and blows at the same time
