I’m 33, I played it when it came out and I played it again last year.
The game is still pretty fun if you like designing dumb alien animals with its weird mechanics for the creature stage, making a weird little tribe/society, and get to the space stage and want to terraform little planets and then go find earth, and the center of the Milky Way.
I wasn’t even particularly young when I played it the first time, I was a post Halo 3 16 year old lol.
I think some of the love for Spore is rose-tinted glasses. It’s ultimately kind of a shallow game. The sim aspects are not very well fleshed out, and 90% of the content of the game is really in the space age.
But spore was awesome though
It had the depth of a cup of spilt coffee, once you’ve played through it once there’s no additional content to experience.
We remember it as awesome, because we played it when we were very young. The Creature Stage still almost is, but the rest of the game is not.
it depends on what you want out of it

There was a space age? I remember playing to a certain point, getting bored, and just restarting it over and over.
So long as you turned on Stellaris when you got to the space stage
