“Welcome to the Evolution!”
- - The main quote on the back cover of the guide
The SPORE Official Game Guide (often marketed as "Spore: Prima Official Game Guide") is a guidebook made and anauthorized by Prima Games, released to cooincide with the Final Game's release in 2008. Copies of the guide also come with their own exclusive poster as homage to both the Willosaur and Tripods.
Features[]
The Game Guide goes over all of the main game's stages in order of appearance: Cell Stage, Creature Stage, Tribal Stage, Civilization Stage, and Space Stage, with a extra section dedicated to the game's Creature Creator mode. Each section of the guide goes over the many features each stage has to offer, from mechanics of each stage to parts you can collect.
The guide also includes a Maxis-exclusive story involving the full evolution from the single-cell Lumpy, to the space ranger VonClumpy, as a way of demonstrating an average playthrough of the game, and what one might expect.
