Terraform is a turn based puzzle game set in the future. Alter planets by using 13 different tools and four weather conditions. The planets themselves are made from 14 different hexagon types ranging from water and forests to lava and deserts. Each of the four weather conditions have different effects on the planet. Create hurricanes and forest fires that impact the planets in their own way. Play through the story of 85 different planets and even more extra challenges. Also features a robust level editor to create, share and download new levels for endless replayability. Solving planets faster and with fewer tools gives you a Terraform rating that you can then upload to compare with others online.
Terraform is in development for mobile devices, including Android and iOS. With all new levels, new interface and a smoother learning curve. Release later this fall.

The main complaints players were having with Terraform for PC was its complexity and steep learning curve. In the mobile version some gameplay elements have been completely left out and others have been reworked and better explained.
