I had high hopes for this game but in the end I was slightly let down. I did not like the fact that the first few stages were so short, I was able to finish the cell, creature,tribe and civilization in an hour or less for each stage. These stages should of been longer so it felt like your spore was actually evolving in a balanced manner. Then we get to the space stage the part of the game I enjoyed the most.
The quests were fun to play and changing the way planets looked was pretty cool but it did seem a bit repetitive after a while. The graphics were decent enough and I like the way you could change the music by creating a anthem so it never became irritating listing to the same thing over and over. Overall Spore isn't that bad its just not what I expected and it does have a lot of replay value.
