A medium-sized seaweed in Cell Stage
Seaweed is a type of food source appearing in Cell and Tribal Stages of Spore.
Stages[]
Cell Stage[]
Seaweed can be encountered in level 4 of the Cell Stage where it attached on bigger seaweed, preceded by green plant matter. It is only consumed by herbivorous, and omnivorous cells.
Tribal Stage[]
They are acquired by fishing at a designated fishing spot along the coast. Seaweed can be exclusively harvested by herbivorous tribes, as in contrary, carnivores and omnivores can only harvest fish instead.
Other stages[]
It does not appear in the Creature, Civilization, or Space stages. It can appear when herbivore tribes are seen fishing. It only appears in Spore Galactic Adventures as a few seaweed-like plants.
Cancelled stages[]
Seaweed would not have appeared in the Molecular Stage before the Cell Stage, but it would appear in the Aquatic Stage and possibly in the City Stage as a source of food.
Tips[]
- Seaweed can be a good, plentiful source of food for herbivores and omnivores in the Cell Stage, but other herbivores may hang around it; these can both deprive the player of access to seaweed by consuming it first, and also attract predators.
Glitches[]
- Rarely, in the Civilization Stage, seaweed can appear in the player's city on a platter.
