Spore is an ambitious, genre-blending sandbox that lets you guide life from a single-celled organism to a spacefaring civilization. The game is built around five distinct evolutionary stages - Cell, Creature, Tribe, Civilization, and Space - each offering its own style of play, goals, and challenges. You can take a single species through the whole arc, watching your choices ripple through generations and shape an entire civilization, or jump into any stage you like to experiment with different aspects of gameplay.
