Your attempts to play are confused by an arcane brew of user accounts and DRM

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.

Spore: Galactic Adventures is the first expansion pack for Spore, a game where you have the freedom to create any creature you wish – from a worm like herbivore to a giant, flying, flesh eating ball with legs, horns and eyes!

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
