The Spore Supersite
Soon to come : Spore Profiles
Spore Phases
Spore is all about evolving your very own species. As such, the gameplay in Spore is divided up into several phases of Evolution:
Cell Phase:
As science should suggest, any species will inevitably start off as a single cell organism and the species you create in Spore is no exception.
This is a two-dimensional mini-game where a player controls his or her single cell by swimming it around a pool of primordial ooze, devouring smaller organisms and avoiding the larger ones. At this stage, players can upgrade their cell with defense mechanisms such as flagella and cilia.
Should you survive the hard-knock life of a single-cell organism, you'll find yourself in a three-dimensional environment. Once on land, you'll find yourself to be one part of a large dynamic ecosystem that is inhabited by the creations of other players - and sometimes even your own!
While still a matter of survival of the fittest in the most simple terms, you are a much more complex creature at this point and can eventually gather members of your own species - and others - to travel the world with you.
Tribal Phase:
Pop! What the hell was that? Why, it was your brain expanding. You'll soon find that your kind has become large - quite large and therefore forming a tribe.
At this stage, a player will deal with increasingly complex creatures as well as the micromanagement of a small tribe! Now, not only will you be able to tweak your creature further with clothing but you'll be able to customize your tribal village as well.
Although; you're not the only species to evolve to this stage on your planet...
As technology permits, your creatures will surpass the stage of tribal life and enter into a stage in which they are able to create thriving cities! As your creatures' brains evolve, more and more opportunities and technologies will become available.
Players are given complete control over the architectural design of their cities making no two cities quite the same. At this stage, the game becomes much more diplomatic. With neighboring cities surrounding your own, you are given some choices: work with them, or bomb them to oblivion.
Space Phase:
When that brain in your creatures' noggins gets large enough, you'll be given the option to create a spaceship. At this stage, armed with a spaceship you can cruise over the surface of your planet abducting whatever content you choose, be it creatures, plants and so forth.
More importantly, you can zoom way out into space where you will first realize that you're just one planet out of millions of others. Now you can interact with other planets in a multitude of different ways and make important and fun upgrades to your UFO. Keep in mind: these planets are inhabited by the creations of other real players! This stage is where the real fun begins!

I hope they allow for some strategy in the tribal city and space stages ie. commands and fleets and armada's.

I love all of the phases, but I haven't heard much on the plant editor or the landscape editors.
