    Description

    Roll&write game in which we have to adapt, explore and colonize Mars. Using the dice pool we perform a number of actions: increase the amount of water and oxygen, raise the temperature, extract resources, build colonies, explore the planet and plan scientific discoveries. Very complex mechanics in very simple rules.

    Each turn we roll a pool of D6 dice. We then use them to trigger various actions on the playing field.Each active area in the game requires the use of dice of a certain value (e.g. discovering an invention of dice 5 and 6) and sometimes additional elements. In the game we use 2 types of add-ons: inventions (that we have to discover) and raw materials that we have to extract on the game map (by drawing an appropriate shape). We can also build a base (which we also draw so that it doesn't occupy the same place with the mines) and explore the surface of the planet using the rover. The most expensive (but also bringing the most points) element is to build an observatory. After 8 game turns we count the points and the player with the highest sum.
