in gaming •  7 years ago 

Spore is a game that allows you to be the one who takes charge of the evolution of your species, a game that at the time gave me many hours of entertainment. It was released for sale by Electronic Arts on September 7, 2008 in the United States for Microsoft Windows and Apple Macintosh, was developed by Maxis and designed by Will Wright and is undoubtedly a very interesting and original game of its kind. The game gives you the possibility to guide your own civilizations through evolution, from unicellular beings to being a galactic species, however, it is quite different from the typical strategy games that give us similar possibilities.

In Spore you will have with 5 different stages of evolution: Cell, creature, tribe, civilization and space stage, and each of these stations has its own challenges. You will have to mold your species according to the needs it has, and you can develop your creature to your liking so that it can survive its environment. Not only can you decide the characteristics of your creature, but you can also take care of the organization of your tribes, your cities (creating buildings, military ships and resource extraction vehicles), and you can even intervene in the evolution of other species in the universe.

From the beginning you can decide if you want your species to be carnivorous, herbivorous or omnivorous, which will define your behavior and diets when evolve a creature, the herbivore will define a peaceful behavior with respect to other creatures, while if you choose to be carnivore, your creature will be more warlike, and finally the omnivorous being will have a bit of both at the time of interacting with other creatures of the planet.

The Cell Stage it's about to collect DNA and depending on the nature of your creature, you will eat plankton or you will eat other weaker bacteria, but you must be careful because there are also creatures lurking to devour you.

On the other hand, being a creature the game mode changes to a kind of RPG where you can explore a large area of ​​the map to join or extinguish other species, in this you will continue to collect evolutionary characteristics for your creature, which will learn to interact with different forms with other species, sometimes you will not even be able to interact with some of them because they are warlike, after completing the necessary requirements you will reach the point where you can evolve to the Tribal stage, where you can join with other tribes to have the control of the map, and at the same time you must protect yourself from tribes that will want to destroy you. Being in the tribal stage, you will be able to tame those non-evolved creatures, and you will have several special abilities.

These cities will be developing at the same time, and an arms race for resources will lead to a conflict between the strongest civilizations on the planet, and of course it must be you who wins the war, for that you will have the capacity to build, edit and improve different types of combat vehicles, such as: tanks, ships, airplanes and armed turrets that will defend your city and will serve you to enter enemy territory.

Having overcome this stage of evolution, you will be the only race on the face of the planet, and you will be able to enter the Space stage.

The ultimate goal in the Space Stage is to reach the center of the Galaxy, where something very special awaits discovery, but it will not be so simple, since you will first have to face the warlike empire of space, a well-known species called Grox, who will not allow you to try to enter the center of the Galaxy until you have finished with them all.

Without more to say about this entertaining game, I invite you to take the time to enjoy it, maybe it becomes one of your favorites. Until next time!
