IGN: Spore Galactic Adventures review Keeping in mind that Spore is aimed at a wide range of gamers and ages, the missions turn out to be challenging without being overly difficult, save for those rare examples where you get stuck for various reasons. Sometimes the game seems to throw you in missions you’re not ready for, such as battling a particularly difficult foe while you lack any decent gear. In others, you might lack the right social interactions needed to succeed. While some of this is on purpose (you have to design a Spore Captain capable of accomplishing the mission), other times it feels arbitrary and awkward. And speaking of the difficulty, there’s no way to save in mid-mission. This can be wearisome if your Space Captain is killed during some of the more lengthy adventures, forcing you to start the entire thing from scratch. review here
