Spore Tribal stage information

EA are upping the ante on Spore pre-release info, as yet another update was released regarding a 'stage' in the game - this time the 'Tribal Stage'. Here is the brief rundown of this stage provided by EA:

You begin the Tribal Stage as a small group of sentient creatures which have just discovered tools and have formed the first tribe on their planet. Gather food with your tribe members by picking fruit, hunting or domesticating wild animals and fishing. Your tribe runs on food, buy tools with it, purchase tribal accessories with it, gift it to other tribes, steal it from other tribes, and (of course) feed your tribe with it. Use different tools to befriend or attack neighbouring tribes, aid in hunting and gathering, or heal your tribe members. Depending on how you played the Cell and Creature Stages, you will begin Tribal Stage with two of six super powers at your disposal. Defeat or ally with five tribes to conquer the continent and form a civilization!

As with the other stage updates, a bunch of new screenshots were also released showcasing the Tribal Stage, which you can check out here.
