I am very disappointed by both the Wii and DS versions of Spore Hero, as neither version succeeded at bringing even the core features of the 2008 PC game to these platforms, let alone expanding the appeal. While the Wii version comes off as a generic action-platformer, the DS fails to offer that, instead presenting us with a repetitive and limited combat centric ladder-style game that is lacking in depth and breadth. There is nothing here to justify a purchase, especially at the time of year when there are at least one or two high-quality DS games released a week.
