User Rating:Have you used the accelerometer on your mobile device to its fullest potential? You can with the Spore Origins app. This is a fun and exciting game that asks the player to guide their character by tilting, turning, and guiding it through an oozy land of single cell creatures. The Spore Origins app allows the user to modify their single cell character by touching the screen.
They can stretch its body, add eyes and other senses, and color it in any way they want, and then they must use this creature to devour smaller ones and build up to become one of the biggest in the tidal pool. This is far more complicated than it sounds because the game requires the user to tilt and turn their mobile device to maneuver their creature through mazelike environments and to also dodge predators.
There are thirty evolving levels of complexity and challenges, and each will ask the player to use their eye to hand coordination, some strategy, and pay close attention to their surroundings in order to survive.
There are many games for mobile devices, but the Spore Origins app is unique in its focus on the use of the accelerometer as a key method of playing the game. It operates strictly with iPod Touch and iPhone devices.
The cost of the app is $.99, and there is also a free “lite” version too.
If you want to use your mobile device to play a fun, challenging, and highly addictive game, then this is an app to try today.
