Description
- Send your leaders to mysterious locations and uncover rich resource depots, giant crystal caves and stunning natural wonders.
- Found new cities on craters and in lava Tubes. Make them thrive and meet your population's rising demands.
- As the planet is procedurally generated, every new playthrough will be unique.
- Choose the best buildings from a selection of randomly proposed projects at the start of every year.
- Plan your city layout efficiently and find strong synergies between buildings.
- Grow your cities into utopian metropolises or industrial settlements automated by robots.
- Restart a volcano, construct giant space mirrors or nuke the poles to geo-engineer the entire planet.
- From spreading adaptive bacteria, to planting full-grown forests with bears. Each life form has specific requirements and provides strategic benefits.

8.5/10
Terraformers is an engaging game that can deliver that “one more turn” feeling that strategy fans crave. The interplay between resources, cards, leaders, and terraforming efforts requires careful thinking and asks players to make difficult choices. There’s a lot of variety both when it comes to scenario objectives and the planet setup.

70/100
Terraformers may not be greater than the sum of its parts, but its unique mix of mechanics and low asking price should help spark curiosity in fans of strategy games and card based roguelikes.

Deleted saved games: bug or feature?
I enjoyed this game. I heard it was described as being essentially a board game, and I agree with this idea. From what I saw in a few hours' play, I could spend some time on this. However, I do NOT enjoy having my saved games removed (as well as, incidentally, my progression). It just makes me close the game and not restart it before weeks or months, if ever. This could be understandable if the game was still tagged "in development", but it is no longer the case. This makes this game, for all practical purposes, unplayable for me. I'll probably try again in a year or so, hoping that you guys eventually decide to make this aspect of your product reliable.

One more turn!
Really good for a layback experience, has good replayability value and I hope that the devs keep up their good work and deliver a good final product!

RNG ruins a good game
I do enjoy the game, but my primary issue, echoed by a few other reviews here, is the fully random nature of the card options for building. It would greatly be helped by a reduced randomness in that certain building types should get increased chances of appearing every round that they do not. Lack of housing, lack of happiness boosters, lack of transportation buildings to help expand without reducing happiness... all of these and more can randomly be an issue on any particular playthrough due to the RNG. I got the game free through Prime Gaming, checked here to see if there was anything like major updates or DLC expanding the game not available over there. There are not. Just the game and the standard useless "support us!" junk for the DLC.
