Primordia: Cell to Galaxy

Begin as a single cell in a glowing tide pool. Twelve chapters later, your species leaves that same world for the stars.

Primordia is one evolution story on one living planet. The body you design becomes your culture: your creature stands as a statue in every capital and flies on your banners, sails and rockets, and its shape bends your roofs and towers. The tide pool where you were born becomes a fishing camp, then a harbour, a lighthouse and a port city. Your world remembers everything you do.

CELL AND CREATURE
Swim through a bioluminescent sea, graze or hunt, and build your organism part by part. Crawl onto land, befriend or hunt rival species, face the Titan of the hills and design every limb, mouth and colour of your creature.

TEN AGES OF ONE WORLD
Lead your people from the first fires through bronze and marble, banners and sails, steam, lightning and signals, all the way to the rockets that lift you off your home world. Every age brings one new toy: fire, farming and seasons, roads and cities, faith and borders, ships, railways, the power grid, satellites and a launch programme.

FIVE CRISES
The Sky Falls. The Long Winter. The Grey Cough. The Great War. The Burning Sky. Meet each one with force, harmony or wonder, and the planet keeps the scars or the gardens you leave.

THE AGE OF STARS
Design your starship, colonise and terraform planets, trade rare goods from Ember Ore to Star Honey, make allies and rivals, and seek the Heart of the galaxy. From orbit, your home world looks exactly as your history left it.

YOUR CHRONICLE
Every chapter writes a page of your species' story into a book you can leaf through, with a card to share with friends.
