Junior is a Maxis-made cell present in Spore. It is found in the Cell Stage at level 5.

It possesses the Jaw, Flagella, Beady Eye, and Stalk Eye cell parts.

Juniors are the only opposing cells that hatch from eggs laid by Maa. Juniors' mouth size is half their body size and attack in groups—In medium and hard difficulties, they prefer to attack in a swarm whenever the player passes by more, they join the swarm. In the second half of Level 5, they also show to be the only aggressive prey-sized cells, which can inflict small damage against the cell, as well as being immune to Spike parts. Prey-sized Juniors can be seen being attracted to and eating meat chunks bigger than their size. Eating them provides no DNA after consumption, though the eggs do and any diet of the cell can consume. Juniors is related to Maa and Paa as a child, both being sexually dimorphic and playing a pun to being family.

Trivia[]

  • When a predator-size Maa is eaten by an Epic Snorf, the eggs that spawn are prey-sized. This means Juniors can be peer-sized and prey-sized in the same area at the same time.
  • Junior was originally called "Eggkid" in the beta version of Spore.
  • Junior originally had a slightly different design before its design was changed to the final 2008 version.
