Instructions and notes

This is a game based on Spore, Will Wright's next big game. As in the video game, you play this deck as a creature's mentor, leading it from the tiny unicellular organism to a civilized, technologic creature. You have to make your creature evolve by adding parts to its body. The game ends when there is only one player remaining, or when some specific goals are reached.

Beware, this is no easy deck to play !

Special rules

Start

  • Every player chooses one Blob card to start with. Organs will be attached as the game goes.
  • The remaining Blob cards must be set aside from the game.

Cards

  • You can play up to 2 Action cards per turn and per player.
  • Things cards can be :
    • Blobs, the most basic part of a creature. They each have a Health value, Muscle, a Defense and a Speed. (will be referred to by their initials.)
    • Body parts (categorized under Limbs, Mouth, Hands, Feet, Sensory and Misc) that can be attached to a player's blob by its owner. They alter the main blob's values.
    • Buildings that can only be used when the player is in Civilisation Phase and over; those can be damaged and destroyed. When destroyed, they are placed in the discard pile.
    • Equipement that can only be used when the player is in Tribal Phase and over; those can be attached to a creature's body part when the body part it concerns exists (ie no gloves if your creature has no hands !). They also alter the blob's values.
    • Others - they can have various effects.

Values

Along with the blobs' values (Health, Muscle, Defense and Speed), each player has some values to keep track of (on a sheet of paper). These are :

  • Population, useful starting from the Tribal Phase and after. Before that phase, your population is always 1.
