Spore lets players create their own creatures, civilizations, worlds and even whole universes. The game includes a number of creative tools which players can use to customize almost every aspect of their Spore experience, from their creatures and buildings to their vehicles, and even spaceships. Players will begin with a world in its infancy, create its creatures, and take them from small cultures to complete civilizations, even ones with highly advanced technology.
"We are so excited to finally get Spore into the hands of fans and players," said Lucy Bradshaw, executive producer of Spore at Maxis. "The Maxis studio has had an absolute blast creating Spore , but the fun is just beginning. The most engaging stories are truly the ones people create themselves, and we can't wait to see how players not only craft and explore the Spore universe, but hear what stories they have to tell as a result."
