Creature Creator for SPORE
Spore, the highly anticipated game from the creators of The Sims?, gives players their own personal universe in a box. Create and evolve life, establish tribes, build civilizations, sculpt entire worlds and explore a universe created by other gamers. Spore gives players a wealth of creative tools to customize nearly every aspect of their universe: creatures, vehicles, buildings, and even UFOs. Players can then seamlessly share their creations with the world or explore infinite new galaxies created by other gamers.

 Amazing...and just a preview of things to come... June 18, 2008

The Spore Creature Creator is a very interesting piece of software on a number of levels. It is a very entertaining program allowing the user to create a wide variety of creatures by dragging and dropping elements into a build screen. It is also a way to jump-start the online set of creatures that will populate the upcoming Spore game (which will be released in September). Finally, it is a very clever marketing tool that will build interest in the complete Spore game.
The Creature Creator is priced ($10) as an impulse buy. Once installed, it is very easy to use and sports a well done and intuitive interface. Creatures are created by dragging and sizing body parts from a menu. The simplicity of the interface will make this a hit with kids.
In addition, as you add body parts the Creature being built reacts (for example, when you add eyes it looks around and makes a happy sound and when you add legs it dances!). This kind of feedback adds to the fun.
Once you have created your Creature you can put it through its paces by walking it around a limited area, having it do some simple tricks (sit, flip, etc.) and other things. You can also snap pictures and make movies of your creature and save these on your system.
However, the real fun is registering your copy of Creature Creator online so your own Creatures can be shared. You can upload your own Creatures and download Creatures made by other people. (You can even automatically upload your Creature Movies to YouTube).
The Creature Creator is not a complete game like the Sims, but it is only $10. Perhaps the most effective aspect to Creature Creature is engendering a desire to get the full Spore game.
If this is just one part of the full game then I suspect Spore will be a massive hit. If Spore lives up to the promised feature list you will be able to create and share not only Creatures but entire Worlds.
Make sure you don't get a copy of Creature Creator on a Monday or Tuesday because you will be tempted to blow off work for the rest of the week so you can play...
Making creatures that walk backwards was funny July 3, 2008

All I can say is I am definitly getting spore in september when its released or soon after. This is a ton of fun. I can't wait to see my cousin's little girl try this when they come for visit . This will keep kids and us older folks amazed for hours. It definitly teaches you bout anatomy as I know I made two or three things first that walk backwards til I figured how it went. Which is fun I can't wait to see how those things move around when the spore game comes out haha. Its why this game is so fun. Rated E Everyone can play it good change from those bloody gorey things I am used to playing. Person who made the sims made this also so I guess if you love sims and zoo tycoon stuff this is gonna be even more fun then those. Imagine making your own creature and watching it evolve and survive. Possilibites of this are going to be endless and fun. Can't wait for the full version by then haha with this I outta have some pretty weird looking creatures thanks to this pre starter pack. I love it glad i picked it up . For 9 bucks you get lots of entertainment outta this thing thats for sure. haha I love it what else can i say.
A fun and creative interface. July 24, 2008

It should be noted that this review pertains only to the "creature creator" feature of the Spore game and not the game itself. With that being said the "creature creator" is a lot of fun and its user interface allows one to create as much creatures as their mind can conceive of. Also the interface is extremely easy to use and has many humorous features to it, particularly where it concerns seeing examples of how your creature (s) actually functions if the game was currently live. All in all I highly recommend this product for anyone who wants to get a good understanding of how the game is played or who has a very vivid imagination.

I know that some people are troubled about paying $10 for the "prelude" to what is sure to be an amazing game. But even this little nugget of the real game can offer hours and hours of fun. So it's definitely worth the sticker price. The coolest thing though is knowing that the creatures you make are actually going to populate the final game... well as long as you don't make them look like genitals anyway.
Creature Creator is Awesome! July 19, 2008

Electronic Arts has hit a home run with Spore if the teaser Creature Creator is any indication. I purchased CC for my 10 year old grandson and he loves it. In a month he's created over 100 creatures that amaze me with their diversity and creativity. Not only do the creatures have every physical feature imaginable, they have personality too. I enjoy watching them flip, dance, and laugh across the screen.
