Ares Expeditions Expansion: Crysis: A new challenge to work together to face the perils of Mars

The terraforming of Mars was complete, and it seemed that humanity had a new home.
However, this hopeful future is suddenly struck by an unprecedented disaster.
Ares Expeditions Expansion: Crysis is an expansion set that adds a new cooperative mode to Ares Expeditions, the card game version of Terraforming Mars.

Crisis facing Mars after terraforming is complete

In this expansion set, unlike the base game, oxygen and temperature are already at their maximum values, and all ocean tiles start face up (at the sea level).
However, at the start of each round, "crisis cards" are revealed, and unless dealt with appropriately, these crises will continue to have negative effects.
Players must work together to confront a series of emergent threats and protect the billions of people living on Mars.
To prevent Mars from becoming an uninhabitable planet again, new challenges await as we tackle the crisis and achieve terraforming once again through various projects.

A cooperative game where crisis response is key

In the base game, players competed as companies to advance terraforming, but in this expansion, the goal is for everyone to work together to save Mars.
At the beginning of each round, a "Crisis Step" is added, during which global parameters are checked and the effects of new Crisis cards are applied.
If you fail to deal with the crisis card, "loss tokens" will be applied and the environment on Mars will become increasingly worse.
If any parameter falls to the lowest level, everyone loses.
Players will need to divide up the work and strategically respond to the crisis while leveraging each company's strengths.

Game flow and victory conditions

The game progresses in the following order: Crisis Step, Planning Step, and Phase Resolution Step.
The Crisis Step requires you to respond to a new crisis, while the Planning Step involves choosing from the traditional Development, Construction, Execution, Production, and Research phase cards.
If you are playing solo, you can use the Dummy Phase cards to progress the game.
The ultimate goal is to complete the re-terraforming of Mars while addressing all crises.
If we can get Mars' environmental indicators back on track and make it a habitable planet again, everyone wins.

New companies and double-sided Mars boards

This expansion adds four new corporations specializing in cooperative games.
Each company has unique capabilities and offers different options for dealing with a crisis.
The Crisis Mode Mars Board is double-sided, and although the placement of each parameter is different, it functions exactly the same in the game.
Players can choose which side they want to play.

Play environment and target audience

This game requires the base game Terraforming Mars Card Game: Ares Expedition to play.
The game can be played by 1 to 4 people, and solo play is also enjoyable.
The recommended age is 14 years and older, and the play time is approximately 60 minutes.
This expansion is one of three Kickstarter-backed expansion sets and was designed by Jacob Fryxelius, Nick Little, and Sydney Engelstein.

New appeal as a cooperative game

Ares Expeditions: Crysis offers a completely different experience by shifting the nature of the game from competitive to cooperative.
Communication and sharing of strategies between players will be important as players work together to protect the ever-changing environment of Mars.
Each player takes charge of their area of ​​expertise and makes the most of their company's characteristics to deal with crises, which allows for cooperative play that is different and more interesting from the basic game.
It will be a new challenge for players who want to experience the world of Terraforming Mars more deeply, and for groups who prefer cooperative games.
The future of Mars is in your hands.
Can we work together to overcome the crisis and make Mars a habitable planet once again?
