9/10
"Spore is clearly built from the ground up to be on the iPhone, and it really couldn?t work on any other platform. I highly recomend picking it up, and with the price drop to $7.99, you?d be crazy not to."
Macworld 9/5/2008
4/5
"Spore Origins for the iPhone roughly follows the same track as the iPod game, though the interface has been improved for the iPhone and the game benefits from the device's larger screen too."

"No wonder the iPhone version of Spore Origins evolved into a position of respect among its peers. There's no doubt this is a superb single-player version of the game, boasting an ideal slate of features, colourful presentation, and good value. It deserves the lion's share of praise beyond these, though, because it's just fun."

8.5/10
"Spore is a good casual game for the iPhone or iPod Touch and a solid compliment to the PC game."
Ars Technica 9/15/2008
8.5/10
"Excellent content, visually stunning, and a user interface that is actually superior to the traditional directional control pad, these are the real arguments for the best portable device for playing games, and that is Spore Origins on the iPhone and iPod touch."
Apple.com 9/8/2008
"Get ready to recreate millions of years of evolution, all in an afternoon."
PC Magazine 9/5/2008
"Good news, iPhone owners. Looks like EA will be spreading a little Spore love your way."
iPhoneBuzz 9/4/2008
"If you are a fan of Spore, then Spore Origins for the iPhone and iPod touch will surely be on your must-have list."
CNET 9/5/2008
"Players get to design their own creatures before beginning on an evolutionary quest through the game's many levels."
