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.





  • By making this game, we hope to inspire humankind to take its first steps out of the cradle and become an interplanetary species, starting with Mars! Do you want to join the terraforming movement, get updates about the game development? Then join our Discord server!

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.

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.
