Crop Circles are a socializing tool appearing in the Space Stage of Spore. It creates a random pattern wherever it is activated.

Crop Circle

A crop circle, as seen on a planet near a tribe.

Actual effects on tribes and civilizations are unknown, but crop circles appear to do nothing except attract a group of people to worship it, but eventually, all the worshipers will go into an extreme panic and will start running away.

Crop Circles are not necessary to ensure creatures uplifted by a Monolith will be friendly with you. The action of uplifting them already gives to the player a +50 relationship bonus. Using Crop Circles does not affect the relationship with them in any way. Using a Crop Circle outside a space empire's city, and thus making the citizens eventually scare out after they've finished worshiping it, may reduce the relationship level by over -20 points for "Scaring our citizens".

In the Creature stage, Crop Circles can be found near the 3rd home nest. Source needed

Trivia[]

  • Crop circles seem to symbolize the Space Stage because they show what appears to be star systems and formations. In the Creature Stage, standing on the outer edge of the curving crescent moon in the circle the camera will shift to a position where it will appear that the player is looking directly through the eyes of their creature, and the camera will shoot up and point directly upwards, towards space.
