Summary
I can certainly see why Terraforming Mars is such a well regarded hit. While the actual mechanics of the game are easy to grasp, there's tons of replay in the differing approaches to victory through a multitude of project cars which can be undertaken. I especially like the "hard" science approach to making Mars habitable as well as the narrative each game can provide. The game plays equally well for two players as it does for five and there's even a solitaire variant.
