About This Game

Territorial Turn-Based Strategy!

Claim the map and cultivate fantastical mushrooms. Compete for dominance, no matter which spores land nearby. Each 'edible' world features a shifting climate and wind, perfect for dispersing spores to new land.

SPORES!

• An activated Nitrogen ability and secondary traits

• 5 Blooms (mushroom) structures to mix-and-match, all affecting the map

• Unlockable features in the meta progression
  
  

Show off your favorite Spores with companion cosmetics!

• Collect and swap Skins, Caps, and Spore Staves!

• Every playable Spore has a complete set

Meta Progression (Research)

• Every playable Spore has secrets to unlock via a mycelium tree

• Spend your match earnings from any game mode
