They're using an enhanced Spore's Creature Editor to customize your character. Interesting idea. I never had a problem with that. It was the actual game itself (past tribal stage) that I had a problem with.
Interesting idea. You can upgrade your creature by finding components on the planet.
Hack And Slash ARPG's are like digital crack for me . As mindless and repetitive as they are they will always be a must for me , a true stress relieve- mind number. Wizard Needs Food Badly !!! remember those days with a pocket full of tokens in your JAMS playing Gauntlet......
