Mars is cold, bare and uninhabitable. Still, you are going to change that. In Terraforming Mars Ares Expedition you lead a large company that prepares the red planet for life. You invest your credits in project cards, raise the temperature, add oxygen and fill the plains with water. Bit by bit, Mars becomes a place where people can live. Each round the players choose together from five phases. That way no round ever feels the same. One time you build new projects, another time you collect income or draw fresh cards to expand your plans. Whoever picks a phase gets an extra benefit from it. And because everyone acts at the same time, you never have to wait long for your turn. That keeps the game moving at a nice pace. Along the way you see the planet change before your eyes. The tracks slowly fill up and the oceans take shape. As soon as there is enough oxygen, water and heat, Mars is ready for life. Whoever has collected the most points by then may call themselves the best terraformer. Whether you play solo or with up to four friends, it stays a tough challenge for anyone who loves building and planning.
