Terraforming Mars is all about long-term planning. You represent a corporation trying to make Mars habitable. You draft cards to build your resource engine. You raise the temperature and create oceans. The card variety is massive. You have to adapt your strategy based on what you draw. The player boards are a bit flimsy, but the gameplay is completely solid. Turns move quickly once everyone knows the icons. It rewards patience and careful investments. A staple for anyone who likes science fiction and resource management.
