DRM and Security doesn't work
I haven't got to try this I have to lower security settings so it can install I assume it is because of DRM since MASS Effect does the same thing. I think the game idea is great the graphics look awesome but it bothers me that the my security treats this like a virus and tells me to stop. Malware is not something I want to pay for a game that crashed a buddys computer is not something I want. A game that can get 5 stars and I cant read the reviews why the whole thing is very corrupt .

So much fun!!
I first tried the free demo of this game (unlimited time demo with 25% of creature parts available) and it was absolutely a delight.
I purchased the full version and it is being used by grandkids, niece, nephews and even the neighbor kids. ENDLESS fun.
With a simple drag and drop format, you can create the most professional animated creatures; comparable to something found in a Disney movie. Actually...these are better...MUCH better.
Try the free demo version at Spore.com. Kids from 4 to adult will enjoy this. It stimulates creativity and imagination.
Play offline or log in to upload your creatures in seconds (with a one button click) to your Spore web page where it can be viewed by millions of Spore fans. Your personal Spore webpage is FREE and is
auto created when you register your demo or full version of game.
I highly recommend this over any game I've ever found. EVERY single kid and adult I show it to is immediately interested in making their own creature. So much fun!
Please note that you do need to to use an internet connection the first time you load game, to register it. This provides three installs of game.

Excited
Even though it was just a preview of the game, it really showed the time that's been going into the final product: Spore. The level of customization is amazing. A good deal more than a million different creatures have already been created by players of this game. The interface is very user-friendly, and I can tell that Spore is going to have great game-play and graphics.

$10 worth of fun? I think so!
We tried to put this program on our Mac first, and it didn't work. So we tried it on my XP-running PC. There was no problem installing it there, and it was amazing how quickly we started creating creatures, we being myself and my 12-year-old daughter.

You decide what qualities you want your creature to have, and you're given choices of limbs and extras to give your creature those characteristics. Add wings, and your character can glide. Add a spikey tail, and watch your character's attack points go up. Add armor parts to make your character's health go up. You can then watch your character attack, dance hip hop, swoon with love and more. It's so much fun!

I suspect this will probably get about 30 hours of play before my daughter gets bored of it, but 30 hours of entertainment for $[...] isn't bad at all. I'm not sure if she'll ever play with her characters online (we don't approve of violent video games), but that's fine with us. Spore Creature Creator is loads of fun on its own.

Seriously, this is worth the $[...] if you have a creative teen or tween.

It didn't work.
I saw a video of this product that made it look easy and fun so I ordered it. It would never install and the support on the Spore site did not address the issue. So I had to return it.

Too bad.
