Wows, you started a topic about Spore? Anyway, I play on occasion(Rarely, because it takes forever to load, so many creations.) and tend to be economic in the Civ. Stage(Sometimes) to get economy boosts in the Space Stage, and let me say, religious colonies are ANNOYING. They ask you to pay them(Probably just to give all your money to Spode, so annoying. ) and let me say again, ANNOYING. If you don't pay, war happens. If you do pay, they leave you in peace but it sounds like they are hating anyways. Plus, valued spice is hard to come by on a planet to get the revenue to pay them. Which makes them-AGAIN-Annoying(Going deep in details to explain annoyingness.). I find myself rarely with the revenue to pay them constantly. But somehow, this doesn't tarnish my love for this game and how you can detail your creatures. Fun!(Lols, why am I posting review?*Unrelated*) Space Stage: Fun, but can get annoying. Civilization Stage: Fun and Easy! Tribal Stage: Less hard to pass than the Creature Stage, but still hard. Fun-ish! Creature Stage: Challenging to go through, but nonetheless fun. Cell Stage: Underdeveloped, easy, but still fun. In all, this game is fun! Neo out.
