SPORE™ Collection

Spore isn't that a doubt one of the most badly designed, clunky, poorly polished games I've ever played in my life. You would be better off finding a copy of EVO for Super Nintendo or maybe just sitting in your backyard and watching the grass grow, It would be a more entertaining and rewarding experience than playing Spore

Fantastic game. Unfortunately it (GOG?) fails to allow migration to a new pc. Since it's a game that relies on *COUNTLESS* hours of progression on a single system/pc, one must be prepared to replay the game from scratch, every single time it's restarted on a new pc system - you're history is gone & pointless - counter to the nature of the games purpose. The save options are only valid if one chooses to stay on the same pc that one has spent years establishing ones progression. Otherwise all is lost at every turn of any system-rebebuild. Despite the temporary space-age establishment of this game, I would love to give this 5 stars, but the continuity issues are a complete drawback when one is forced back to the start upon any system upgrades. What a shame... Continuity does not exist with this game even though it states its purpose as such (eg: evolution).

Yet another game, originally released cross-platform, but inexplicably Windows-only on GOG.

I bought this on disk when it came out, it was very buggy, threw a bunch of Malware on your PC, and wasn't very satisfying. It was fun for a few plays, then you end up losing interest. Now the DRM is probably removed, as it's on GoG, but purchasing it again just doesn't seem worthwhile, and i wouldn't recommend anybody else to either, although there aren't really many similar games to this, it just doesn't do it well enough to be worth your time. As they once said a long time ago, Avoid the Noid.

I originally bought this game in a store, a DVD and documentation on paper in a real box! Cost an arm and a leg to buy, but it seemed such a good game. Stage 1 - the 2D fase in which you're a simple cell organism eating the smaller ones to gain DNA points, while avoiding being eaten by the larger ones. This stage was enjoyable, but too short. Stage 2 - creature stage. Essentially a 3D version of stage one where you left the primordial soup, and now roam the land with similar goals. This stage was the most fun, but much too short! Stage 3 - Sentience. Getting killed by Legendary monsters that other players' creatures worship. These monsters are 20 times the normally attainable height, and kill you by simply stepping on you, even accidentally. The worst is it, when your creatures get killed over and over by the same Legendary, which was based on one of your OWN creations. I've never seen stage 4 and 5, because after seeing six or seven of my own worlds fall victim to the same Legendary monster every time, I gave up, uninstalled the game, and gave the box to a friend of mine, who never even tried it. Had there not been Legendaries, or had there been an option to disable them, or even to play completely WITHOUT the need to be online, things might have been different. Now I'll just consider it a loss. I'm not wasting money on it ever again.
