Plan B: Terraform (v0.6.7.672)

Manage the resources of a newly discovered planet. Bring supplies to the cities and manage its terraformation. Extract minerals, transform and transport them to the cities, so that they can expand and progress. Build terraforming devices, such as greenhouse gas factories, in order to progressively warm up the atmosphere, make the ice melt and make rain fall, until rivers and oceans form. Then, when the conditions are met, you will be able to plant trees and watch them grow into large forests. Plan B: Terraform is a calm and contemplative science-fiction game based on a credible near future. It also offers an educational approach to greenhouse effects and water cycle mechanisms. Earth has a very hard time limiting global warming and its catastrophic consequences. Humanity needs a plan B in order to ensure its survival. This is up to you! Huge planetary scale playground, composed of more than a million hexagons. The “real” terraformation of a planet, with a global and real-time simulation of temperature, vegetation, rain and water flowing to form dynamic rivers and oceans. Radical evolution of the population, from a few inhabitants to a million and more. Disclaimer: I played nearly 20 hours of the Demo during Steam Next Fest 2023. Best described as terraform & chill; Plan B: Terraform is a relaxing and mentally stimulating game that seems to take inspiration from the many factory games out there, mix with the chill satisfaction of placing tiles a la Dorfromantik. Of course, it is an early access game, so it is not without its issues. If the occasional bug or user experience quirk isn’t your thing, then give this one a few more months to marinate. Otherwise, pick this up ASAP, turn up your volume, and prepare to be transported by the experience.
