Description
Making a new home on Mars brings hope to humankind, and when you play Ares Expedition you can become a part of a new age of exploration and achievement. As a briefer, condensed version of the original Terraforming Mars game, many of the same game mechanics (engine building, resource management and card drafting) are here to be enjoyed but in an easier to learn game environment. As representatives of one of the major corporations responsible for creating this new world, players receive unique powers and work to play project cards that aid them with obtaining resources and earning actions, resources, victory points and increasing their terraforming ratings with the goal of earning the most points. Once players fully explore the oceans, along with raising oxygen and temperature levels to their optimum levels, the game ends, and the person with the most victory points wins! Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition has an optional co-op mode and solo mode. For 1-4 players. Game Time: 45-60 min.
