Spore

A sandbox-flavoured evolution game that takes your creature through five stages: cell, creature, tribe, civilization and space. Each stage plays differently, from simple eating and growing to building a society and exploring the galaxy. You shape your species with creation tools and can share what you make. Tone is light and playful. Is it your kind of game?
