Clark and Stanley



Clark and Stanley are the name of two individual creatures and a set of adventures in Spore that give 100 points when completed. They are incredibly basic and funny adventures which normally consist of walking up to Clark, having him speak to you, and watching him as well as Stanley die of comical effects, such as when they go swimming, they are mauled to death by sharks. After the deaths, you complete the adventure, where you are then scolded for doing a rub it in dance when they die. Users often make their own versions of this adventure, like buying Galactic Adventures, Racing, etc. They are very unpopular among more experienced players due to the simplicity of them. Some user versions give ridiculous numbers of points, with a high of 98. The average amount of points has gone down due to the change in the rating system.

Characters
Clark and Stanley are two almost identical Dweebles. The only main difference between the two is that Clark is a green colour and Stanley is blue. Clark appear to take the dominant role of the pair, and he is often the first that the player speaks to. They appear to be very unintelligent, and will often do very stupid and moronic things, such as setting off hundreds of fireworks whilst standing in the middle, blowing up a mine without any shelter, or running across mine fields. Sometimes however, they die due to the result of something going wrong (such as an exploding oven). It is unknown what relationship Clark and Stanley have with eachother, as they could be either brothers or friends.
