Spore

Spore is one of those games that will have you hooked from the very beginning. In this game, you're the creator of monstrous creatures that are at the same time cute.

To play Spore, the first step is creating your account, after which you can enter the wonderful world of creature creation. To do so, you'll use an extremely intuitive interface where you drag the body parts you want to add to your creature into place, including mouths, eyes, ears, arms, hands, legs, feet, armor, feathers, spikes, and much more, all of which affects the creature's abilities, including health, defense, attack, and even charm, which is a useful skill for relating to the other creatures that populate the Spore universe.

The final step in creature creation is choosing your creature's color, either by letting your imagination run wild or using Sporepedia to select a palette of colors and styles already designed by other users.

When you're done, your creature will enter the Spore universe, where it can interact with other creatures by falling in love, fighting, making friends, having offspring, and more.

This is an easy-to-use game with a fabulous premise in which lots of fun awaits for players of all ages.
