"It is kind of interesting that one of the original inspirations of the game was the SETI project, looking out into the universe for alien intelligence." Wright continues, "It is an interesting question to me because it ends up collapsing all of the known sciences, physics, chemisty, biology, and astronomy, into one interesting question that any five-year old can understand. What I really wanted was for it to be inspirational and motivational," says Wright. In some sense, we didn't want this game to be overtly educational. "Well, at any stage, if it felt like that was interfering with game play, we diverged. "How careful were you, as you were developing it, to stick to, or allow yourself to depart from the realities of earth science?" asked Andersen. This game, even before it was launched, in the last few weeks, has gotten considerable attention from biologists and evolutionary scientists. The game’s creator, Will Wright, who also invented "Sim City" and "The Sims," weighs in on the intelligent design debate. This even extends to the creations others players make, as one player's creature could be another player's demise.The new computer game “Spore” lets users create single-celled microbes and, as the game progresses, they “evolve” into complex creatures and highly developed civilizations.
Actions from one creature impact the entire universe, even across save files. What Spore is, however, is an amazing universe simulator. On that note, Spore might not be the "everything simulator" that it was dubbed pre-launch. The game really feels like a living and breathing galaxy that reacts to the actions of just one creature. Little details like these make Spore such a unique experience. Speaking of multiple saves, players can actually interact with their other save files if they find the planets in the Space Stage. RELATED: Hades: How Supergiant Games Reinvigorated the Roguelike Genre The Space Stage is so expansive that it's really hard to see everything that the universe has to offer on only one save. There's also a wide range of unique events that can happen, so players who want to experience everything Spore has to offer have reason to return. Spore encourages multiple playthroughs with different creature types, as the gameplay changes depending on the nature of the player's creature. The only real direction is to interact with other space-faring civilizations, but the definition of "interact" really depends on the nature of the player's creature. The Space Stage is incredibly open-ended, and the player isn't given a direct goal. The real draw of this stage is the sheer scale of the galaxy that only some games, like the indie gem Galimulator, have managed to capture.

The player's actions from stage to stage also grants them different special abilities in each stage. If they have killed more than they've socialized, for example, the player's ideology will be more militaristic. The player's own ideology is determined by how they've played the game up until this point. In the Civilization Stage, each opposing civilization is made up of the player's creature with different ideologies.
