Read the full game description
Lead a corporation transforming Mars through cards and custom resource dice. Choose production to roll new resources or take actions that spend dice on project cards, standard projects, cities, and greenery. Build an efficient tableau, claim awards and milestones, and raise oxygen, temperature, and ocean coverage while watching the shared map and rival engines. When two of the three global parameters are complete, the most successful corporation wins by victory points.
