At first you'd think getting out of the cockpit for once is such a great idea, but then you realize that it doesn't add to the atmosphere of the grim void of space. In fact most places you'll land are prettied up and cute and most missions are get this lead singer back to the band.

Did you like unleashing disasters after building a city in SimCity, or SmCity 2000? Spore lets you do this with creatures and at the space age you can destroy planets!

You may appreciate the idea of the developers to give users the possibility to forge mission in this awesome game, but the fact is that users are (or seem to be) not able to create something worth buying this expansion

What he appreciated the most about this expansion pack was the weapons. They add new power features to the characters. Also, it brings more options when visiting a planet. You can therefore land on it, You can also create your own adventures. Great expansion pack!

this game was very fun i enjoyed this game a lot it was fun and was the spore experience i wanted and better the space stage is very fun would recommend this to anyone who plays spore it's worth the money
