In the Civilization stage, players focus on interactions, either peaceful or violent, between their civilization and other civilizations on their Homeworld. One of the main objectives is to collect the spice geysers located around the planet, and prevent the enemy from accessing any themselves. Another is conquering all of the other cities religiously, economically, militarily, or diplomatically. The entrance into space marks the beginning of the space stage, but not necessarily the end of control on the Civilization stage.
Like in Tribal Stage, other civilizations can be dealt with peacefully or by war. The main resource of the Civilization stage is spice that can be gathered from nodes on land or sea. Controlling as many spice nodes as possible gives an advantage. There is a diplomatic system in the Civilization stage that can help you with deciding your allies, neutrals, or enemies. Each civilization can build three types of vehicles: cars, planes and ships. They differ by graphic appearance and three attributes: speed, power and stamina. Making one attribute stronger in the Vehicle Editor means that other attributes will be weaker. For example, if you put many guns on a tank, you'll make it more vulnerable and slower, but it can crush other vehicles more quickly. If you add a powerful engine after that, firepower will be weaker, but the vehicle will be faster. This is made for balance considerations. In addition, planes can only be created and bought after four cities are under a civilization's control. Strangely enough, in the space stage, planets in the civilization stage controlled by another creature can buy and use planes no matter how many cities they control.
The Chieftain leads your tribal village, and cannot acquire tools like normal tribal members. However, the Chieftain has the best tool in the game which is better than the other weapons, instruments, and other special tools. His staff doubles as a gathering cane, and a fishing spear, and as a sort of club used for attacking other tribes' members. If killed, a new chieftan will soon appear at your hut.
The player should never leave his food unguarded, as small wild animals will sneak in and drain your food supply.
Some times a space ship will show up hovering around your village, but it will not attack you at all. It may abduct one of your pets though.
NOTE: If you end up as Friendly in the Tribal stage, your first city in Civilization Stage will be a Religious one. If you finish as Industrious, you'll start as an Economic city, and if you finish as Aggressive, your starting city will be Military.
