Specifically for this post, I was wondering if there was a way of playing Spore without the need for a Windows PC?

Ideally without the need for a laptop at all. I think it’s something Darwin would enjoy, and wondered if there was a simple solution.

Your options are all at the bottom of https://www.spore.com/ .

One of them (PC) is bad, the rest are very bad.

Oh, that’s a big shame.

I saw a few options and they were all PC via various services like Steam. I was hoping they’d made a console release at some point and that I just couldn’t find it.

Not to worry, thank you for looking.

It's not very good.

There's a mobile game, too.

It's also not very good.

Aw, that’s a shame that they’re not very good. Fair enough, I’ll give it a miss, then.

Darwin’s been playing Cell To Singularity, but the constant tap-tap-tapping is awful.

That’s the first place I found d when I was initially googling, but it only runs on Windows, and we don’t have a windows PC here.

I think it might be a dead end. It’s no problem. I’ll add it to my list of games I wish they’d remake for modern consoles.
