Description

**Terraforming Mars: Venus Next** expands the base game with Venus terraforming funded by the World Government, adding flying cities, ~50 project cards, 5 corporations, floaters, a new milestone, award, tag, and terraforming parameter for diverse victories (24 words). Key mechanics include: - *Venus terraforming* Players build flying cities and make the deadly planet's atmosphere more hospitable. - *Expanded card pool* Adds around 50 project cards focused on Venus habitability. - *New corporations* Introduces 5 corporations tailored to Venus strategies. - *Floater resource* New resource type to enhance gameplay options. - *Achievement elements* Features a new milestone and award for Venus-focused accomplishments. - *Tag and parameter* Includes a new Venus tag and terraforming parameter for varied paths. Terraforming Mars: Venus Next, the second expansion for the base game, introduces Venus as a new terraforming target, where the World Government allocates funds alongside Mars efforts. Players engage in constructing floating cities and refining the planet's toxic atmosphere to render it habitable. The expansion enriches the game with approximately 50 specialized project cards and 5 corporations, all emphasizing Venus viability. Innovations such as the novel floater resource, a dedicated milestone, an award, a Venus-specific tag, and an additional terraforming parameter diversify strategic options, victory conditions, and overall play variability, deepening the core terraforming experience.
