With 45-60 minute rounds, dynamic phase selection, and a focus on engine-building through project cards, this edition offers premium components and a streamlined experience perfect for millennials seeking quick, engaging gameplay with deep strategic layers. ## Description Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition is an engine-building game in which players control interplanetary corporations with the goal of making Mars habitable (and profitable). You will do this by investing mega credits (MC) into project cards that will directly or indirectly contribute to the terraforming process. In order to win, you will want to accumulate a high terraform rating (TR) and as many victory points (VP) as you can. Players raise their TR by increasing global parameters: oceans, oxygen, and temperature. TR also determines each corporation's basic income, and, at the end of the game TR counts as VP. Additional VP and production capabilities are awarded for building project cards and other actions taken during the game. The game is played in rounds, and each round the players will choose one of five phases, which determines which activities will take place during that round. This means every round is different, but can consist of building new project cards, taking general and project-specific actions, producing income and resources (plants and heat), or researching to draw more project cards. Every player will take all the phases selected for the round, and will receive a special bonus during the phase that they selected. To speed up the game, players should resolve each phase simultaneously! The game board has tracks for oxygen, temperature, and terraform rating, as well as a place for all of the ocean tiles that will be flipped over the course of the game. The game ends when there is enough oxygen to breath (14%), oceans enough to allow Earth-like weather (9), and the temperature is well above freezing (+8°C). It will then be possible, if not comfortable, to live on the surface of Mars! The winner is the player with the most VP at the end of the game. Review: Buenazo! - Tenía mis dudas sobre el, porque no soy muy fan de la temática espacial y futurista en juegos de mesa, pero este si me gustó mucho y su versión solitaria funciona muy bien y es divertido. Me encantó. Review: Great game - Love this game! Easy to play, clear and descriptive instructions, excellent quality of materials. A great game, playable by two people and which takes many of the same concepts from Terraforming Mars (full edition) and tweaks them a bit to make for an interesting, enjoyable - and shorter - game. Highly recommended. Suggest getting the expansion pack "Terraforming Mars Ares Expedition: Discovery", for even more interesting competition. ## Features - Return to Mars and terraform it once again, this time using only cards - 1-4 Players, 45-60 Minutes, Ages 14 years+ - Strategy game based on Terraforming Mars ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08QY2YYNH | | Are Batteries Required | No | | Batteries Required? | No | | Brand | Stronghold Games | | CPSIA Cautionary Statement | No Warning Applicable | | Colour | Multicolor | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 716 Reviews | | Edition | Standard Edition | | Estimated Playing Time | 60 Minutes | | Genre | Strategy | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00810017900206 | | Importer Contact Information | Boardway India, Munisuvrat complex, Rehnal Village, Bhiwandi, 421302 | | Included Components | Card, rule set, boards and other board game accessories | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Dimensions | 8.9 x 20.1 x 24.9 Centimeters | | Item Type Name | Board game | | Item Weight | 1.36 kg | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Boardway India, Publisher Services Inc, 2800 Vista Ridge Dr Suwanee, GA, 30024-4411 United States, Stronghold Games | | Manufacturer Contact Information | Boardway India, Publisher Services Inc, 2800 Vista Ridge Dr Suwanee, GA, 30024-4411 United States | | Manufacturer Part Number | TMCG1SG | | Material | Cardboard | | Maximum Recommended age | 1188.0 | | Minimum Age Recomendation | 168 | | Minimum Recommended age | 168.0 | | Model Number | SGTMCG1 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Players | 4 | | Operation Mode | manual | | Packer Contact Information | Boardway India, Munisuvrat complex, Rehnal Village, Bhiwandi, 421302 | | Set Name | Collector's Edition | | Size | One Size | | UPC | 810017900206 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Stronghold Games - **Material:** Cardboard - **Genre:** Strategy - **Number of Players:** 4 - **Edition:** Standard Edition ## Images ![Terraforming Mars Ares Expedition Cllctr - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/713hLG3OkaL.jpg) ![Terraforming Mars Ares Expedition Cllctr - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71beMon7P8L.jpg) ![Terraforming Mars Ares Expedition Cllctr - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81+F6MNOZPL.jpg) ![Terraforming Mars Ares Expedition Cllctr - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61UhZjSeNTL.jpg) ![Terraforming Mars Ares Expedition Cllctr - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71lKJgG6AnL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buenazo! *by E***O on 25 June 2024* Tenía mis dudas sobre el, porque no soy muy fan de la temática espacial y futurista en juegos de mesa, pero este si me gustó mucho y su versión solitaria funciona muy bien y es divertido.
