Most tokens fit nicely into game trays that you simply put out on the table. If you happen to have the collector’s edition set up is a breeze. The corporation that earns the most points wins. Your goal isn’t just about securing humanities future, you will have to keep your shareholders happy too. Take the helm of your corporation and do your bit to terraform Mars. How to Play Terraforming Mars Ares Expedition Objective Does it do the original game justice? Well, quite frankly, it’s stellar, in fact as much as I liked the original, I think I prefer Ares Expedition. To top it all off they have tweaked the gameplay to include more simultaneous play which means I won’t be twiddling my thumbs as much waiting for someone across the table to finish their turn. Luckily designers Sydney Engelstein, Jacob Fryxelius and Nick Little have managed to condense this amazing game into a more streamlined package that fits nicely into as little as an hour. I would say a lot of dads can relate, by the time dinner is done and jobs are out the way usually I can’t manage to fit in a game that long. As much as I really enjoy this game, I am lucky to get that much time to play a game and finding others willing to invest that kind of time is even more challenging. I just love the story here, the only downside is that a game of Terraforming Mars can be well over 2 hours long. That is the setting for the original Terraforming Mars released in 2016 by Fryx Games. Now I don’t think I will ever get to set foot on Mars in my lifetime, but the idea of running a corporation terraforming the red planet driven by corporate greed is enough to get me interested. Especially if the story is interesting and well implemented. Ok let’s get this out the way, I love sci fi themed games, love them.
