Wow. Just wow.. This app is just so amazing. Yeah, I know you’re probably scrolling through the pictures right now to see if you want to try out this game or not. You might be thinking, “These pictures are probably super photoshopped and edited to look absolutely AMAZING. The real game can’t possibly be as good as that!” I can end your ignorance right there by simply saying, it is. This very intelligent game has many features that will encourage you to explore further and keep terraforming... simply stunning. Each planet you inhabit gives you tons of gameplay and plenty of time to go at your own pace. But be cautious; it can be very tricky to find a good strategy that can safely terraform your planet. I would recommend you get this game if you’re willing to check on it at least once a day, for example, after school like I do. If you don’t... well, let me just give you a situation. Say you have a plant running that increases sea levels. If you leave this running without coming back to check on it, you could flood your planet! Anyways, I hope you found my feedback helpful. (Sorry for the super long review😬)

Humans need to be involved more. You could add more complexity by decreasing oxygen levels with human population. There should be punishment for overpopulating the planet which would be oxygen loss. It should be calibrated to scale with how much oxygen is used per minute per person and what amount of people take up 1 unit of air per minute. There is likely not an exact measurement for how much oxygen is lost for specific group of people and that should be rounded. I also have another idea. There also be how much food a colony needs and there should be a separate account for the colony’s food budget and what to buy, how much to buy, and when to eat. If the player doesn’t feed the population then population per minute will decrease. There could be a market of different foods that some are expensive and give positive Benifits depending on how much is consumed and vise versa. Another option could be hunting. Those are all my ideas for this game but I don’t expect you would see this review, read all of it, understand all of it, or even add it too the game. If you feel like most people wouldn’t like the update or it would too long to make them it’s fine.

Gorgeous and captivating!. I rarely write reviews, but this game was so well-designed and enthralling that I felt that I had to do so. The graphics are stunningly beautiful and this game has consumed my attention since I downloaded it. It gives you the option to watch advertisements to gain currency, culture, and “Genesis Points,” which allow you to build faster, but offers the option in a very inobtrusive way, unlike so many games with obnoxious ads. I watch them occasionally to speed things along and support the developers. I also purchased Genesis Points because I love this game so much I felt obliged to pay something. At this rate, I’ll likely purchase the options to terraform other planets and moons as well. This is a game that is truly enjoyable without spending a cent or watching a single ad, though, and that can be won simply with some patience— which you’ll need anyway! I love the educational aspect and basis in science, and with just the most basic math and science abilities, you’ll enjoy this game as well. I’m looking forward to the next planets and moons already. I also loved the book recommendations in the information section! The developers clearly prioritized the quality of the game and educational aspect over making a quick profit. I hope others purchase the optional moons, planets, and GP so the team can keep working on this game and more like it. This is the best I’ve played on iOS to date.

It’s Ok. At first I thought maybe it’s finally a game with more or less correct physics simulation/model. But really not, it’s pretty limited. I built a heating station on Mars a few weeks ago and something that produces water (really? from what material? well, whatever) and left the game in that state for a few weeks. Now I opened it and it says that I have very high temperature there, almost all my water in a form of vapor, but the atmosphere pressure is still at its lowest (yes, I didn’t build any atmosphere buildings on purpose to check if it will change). How’s that possible? All parameters should be strictly linked - the water can turn into a vapor way before the 100 C if the pressure is low. While it turns into a vapor, that what should make the thin, but heavy atmosphere and increase its pressure in return. More vapor in the atmosphere should change the sunlight absorption and temperature in return, and so on. All parameters should be link into one system and affect each other and it’s quite possible to describe in relatively simple differential equation and would probably be fun to play. But this game doesn’t do that. It’s too simplified. The graphics is Ok, could be better. The music is very nice, but not original.

Amazing Game. This game is very well thought out. It exercises your brain. It requires strategy. It is a great way to pass time. I don’t want to repeat the other reviews on everything I like about it because my thoughts are pretty similar! I’m just gonna get into what’s bothering me. That being said...the ads are RELENTLESS! Yes you have an option to decline them but there’s literally another ad offer after you click or decline the first one within like 45 seconds. It covers the date at the top of the screen and I just wanna be able to see my entire screen. It helps my brain to have a clear workspace . Maybe get creative with the ads and make them little meteors passing that you can click if you want instead of putting a bar at the top of the screen that blocks things? Part of me feels like it was done on purpose to encourage us to interact with it so it’ll go away, but even after watching 2 ads in a row for a mining and cultural boost, it popped up again literally 10 seconds after I got back from the last one. It is relentless. Please move it.

Missing planets.. I love this game! I honestly thought when I would look up "Terraforming Mars" That nothing would pop up. Then I found this one and when my dad he would buy it. I couldn't stop playing. I have not completed any planets but I'm getting closer to completing Mars. But anyways, There are a few things that you forgot. For one, in the dwarf planet section, the way you made it probably should have had 8 dwarfs and not 6. The 2 you should add is Haumea and Quaoar. Haumea is oval and has a ring around it as well as a red spot, showing some of it's lower crust, and there should be almost all of its surface as snow. And Quaoar has many craters perfectly separated apart. It is red-ish in color and if I'm correct, is in between Pluto and Haumea. And a mother thing is that in that fictional solar system is that it goes from a planet in the habitable zone to one at the edge of its solar system. So I think that you should add at least 3 gas giants and 2 ice giants. And you should also probably add other solar systems like Kepler 22, 452, 62, Alpha Centauri, and Ross 128. And 2 of Saturns moons are missing, Mimas and Enceladus. That's all I spotted, and if there are other errors in the game then fix those to. ~Ethan Brown.

Can’t wait to see more!. When I saw this game allowing players to use scientific reasoning to terraform planets, I downloaded immediately and spent a day carefully terraforming Mars. I am an environmental scientist who studies algae, so naturally I ate up all of the references to algae terraforming powers. Now that I am nearly done with Mars, I don’t feel as if there is anything more that I want to do. I wish this game was more complicated to make it replayable. Even starting with a vastly different planet, the strategy is basically the same. I hope that this game will add more features as it develops. I could see a PC version of this where you can see the cities grow and change with architecture styles and building choices, the genetically engineered animals and plants you unleash on the surface, etc. Some suggestions I have for new indexes are a happiness index increased with entertainment buildings, room in habitations, governor popularity, and whether they eat fruits and vegetables or just plain algae. Maybe plagues and starvation could decimate populations unless you have contingency plans in place. When oxygen rises, temperature should decrease. There could be volcanic eruptions. Maybe you can’t choose governors,but they are randomly elected once an out of game day. You should have the ability to set up natural parks. I just need more choices to make.

Play Mars then stop. I’ve only played Mars fully by this point. That campaign was awesome and addicting. It got the more important parts of terraforming down—heat, pressure, water, oxygen, and finally plant life. It even offered an absolutely amazing orbital view of the planet changing over time. But it still had a couple issues—namely in real life all of my settlers would have died of CO2 poisoning, as many of the ways to add to the atmosphere consist solely of creating CO2. And also because of the interesting choice of orbital gameplay, it’s very easy to overshoot your goals and make your planet uninhabitable by accident. I’m a big realism person with my science fiction. I love the idea of terraformation, but I want to do that realistically and accurately. And the terraformation in this game seems like it runs out of realism by the time you pass Mars. The game used all of the same terraformation mechanisms that it uses on Mars, so you start to exploit imaginary resources that don’t exist on Venus, Mercury, and Luna, such as not actually having much water-ice on world. I would say play Mars and then delete the game. I hope that the creators can actually update the game so that each setting actually has it’s own terraforming methods, rather than having it feel like oceans were created out of thin air.

A great game, with only one minor issue.. First of all, I want to say how much I love this game. The graphics are stunning, especially for a mobile game, the mechanics are great, with pretty much every planet being a new experience, with new challenges to overcome, and things to do. However, there is one slight problem. The way the game handles progression when using different planets. Personally, I like to go from one planet to another, at random, with the only problem (in my eyes) lying here. When I go to another planet (let’s say I’m on planet A going to planet B) the gameplay doesn’t pause on the original planet I was on. It continues until I pause it manually. Now, this is okay on its own, but, at first, doesn’t really seem worth the trouble. It’s a lot of effort to pause and I pause a planet over and over just when I want to do something new. Now, this is likely just my own problem, but if there was any way to have progress automatically pause when switching planets, I’d appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for reading my review.

Incredible Game!. The title says it all. This game—which is based in real NASA science—allows you to colonize and terraform planets such as Mars, Mercury, Venus, and so on. While fun, this game definitely requires patience! Even the fastest levels generally take a few days. While only the inner solar system (Mercury, Venus, Earth, the Moon, and Mars) is available for free, that is still plenty of playable content, and the many more colonizable worlds are available for cheap prices—this isn’t the type of game that charges you 50 dollars for one level. Speaking of which, while in-app purchases do exist in this game—premium currency and such—they are definitely not needed. It is possible to complete the worlds without spending any money on in-game currency, not to mention that the game will basically donate the premium currency (known as Genesis Points) to you from time to time. That said, I have noticed a few small bugs—namely, city lights on Mars are sometimes blue for some reason, and if you change the language and an event pops up, any logs or history of that event will remain in that language, even if you switch the language again. Overall, however, this game is incredible, and the recent 5.0 update only made it better. Keep up the good work!

Fantastic, truly free to play app. I’ve been playing this game for probably over a year. The science behind terraforming on the game is well done, and well balanced. I’ve read reviews of people complaining that it’s too hard, they can’t find the right balance. Well, that’s terraforming to a T. If it was easy, this game wouldn’t be that interesting. You’ve got to plan out how you’ll terraform each planet. Mars is easy, pretty straight forward. Other places, like ice planets have so much ice, that if you start by warming the planet first, yeah you’re gonna flood the entire world. So definitely need to pay attention to details, and you definitely need to check up frequently on your planets progress or you can quickly overshoot your goal and create a world with the opposite problem. I paid $20, one time and it unlocked all the extra planets, moons, scenarios, and even a random world generator. Ads are never forced on you, though you can choose to watch them to gain good bonuses for the world you’re building. The devs are responsive to the community, and they listen to player input. Download it, NOW! You won’t regret it.

Decent, but has serious bugs. Significant problems with events. Anything with expert, forget it unless you want to spend a ton of GPs. Every few minutes there will be a random even that destroys every habitation in a city, sending you back to square zero, worse than when you founded the city. Then a few minutes later, the same thing will happen to another city. Can’t build up cultural income, because your cities keep getting abandoned. It’s better to just abandon the event as soon as you realize it’s on expert. Besides that, there is an event where one victory condition is to earn 50 million credits per minute. That’s not a typo. If you make the planet habitable so you don’t need domes, you might get as high as 400k per city (20 coral reefs with revenue sliders to maximum) and 30 cities. That would get you to 12 million. Still 38 million short. Unless you have about 5 level 10 building revenue governors, you aren’t getting to 50 Mil. A bug deleted an event save. I was playing the current event on an iPad. Opened it up on the iPhone, and it deleted the save for the current event because the last time I had opened it on the iPhone, I was playing a previous event. It deleted both the previous event save and the current event save on the iPhone. The current event save was deleted on the iPad too. All progress on the event lost when I was almost done. If they give me the rewards I missed out on, and fix the bug, I’d likely rate it higher.

I love this game!!. I absolutely love this game, it really is unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. The science that’s incorporated in it is amazing. It’s important and essential to the core goal of the game instead of having the learning on the side completely unrelated. I probably play it a lot more than I should, my favorite part is watching the planets landscape transform as you start to terraform it. And the biosphere feature is complex and awesome. There’s a lot of thought that went to making this game as well as playing it. I have some suggestions: It would be nice if, once you reach habitability the priority on the main page to stabilize would only show if you’re going away from your goal. Also I agree with some of the other people that the game is a bit of a money grab. You have to pay for almost all of the worlds, Maybe you could make all of the packs where you buy one planet and then have to complete it to unlock the other ones, or buy them with GP? Also please make it compatible with music and other sound. Fix these things and the game will be even better!! Overall this is a super fun and well thought out game that I would totally recommend to anyone.

Needs more ways to micro manage. I would be cool if there were more ways to control your population, like if you had good industry a certain community would move in. Also having the people have demands, if you don’t supply the demands, they will start a revolution or something like that. Another aspect I thought about when thinking about realistically was that you have competition. For example if you choose horizon the sons would try to attempt to sabotage your colony, and this would require a military( you would be able to attack them and if you had a big enough military the us would move in). Going back to the community thing, the country that would move in would be a country that currently has a space program(us,uk,Australia,Russia,china,etc) because Morocco doesn’t have one (even if they did have one by the events of the game it would be nothing compared to the ones listed above by then. Ah, the animals, needs some type of formula like spore. Yah, that would be fun. Conclusion: What I’m saying here is that I’m hoping for some French talking koalas with laser guns and nukes on mars (and when they talk they sound like the spy from tf2).

Amazing game. I love this game a lot. The latest update kind of messed some things up, only a tiny bit though so don’t be worried. I saw that you “fixed” the “aerobraking maneuver” section. When I pressed it the planet I was terraforming was suddenly a beautiful water world with life pouring from every pool. Now, a couple of weeks ago i stared playing on the moon. I completed it and i have a population of over 2.5 billion people. But they are ruthless my largest cities “human consumption” is over 550, but other than that its a great game. …well…i guess it’s my own fault for letting so many people on the moon so never mind! I accidentally deleted the game when I finished the moon, but I started over and i am finally going to finish Mars! I didn’t the first time because i didn’t have a temperature for liquid water, and i kept adding water and when the temperature was finally habitable, the world flooded, and I as forced to quit. I also played on Venus. That was the best game I ever played! The population was over 109 billion people! Then the human consumption stepped in. I lost over 109 billion people. You really have a great game, and I hope that you keep creating worlds, or maybe something where you can visit your world after terraforming it??!

Superb Job. I’m giving this game 5 stars. Not only because it’s a really fun game to play, but because the game developers are extremely involved with the player feedback and continually making improvements. I’ve enjoyed terraforming new planets and learning about the process as well. On the easiest setting, it was really fun. I terraformed mars in about 2 weeks real time. It took me a bit to get the hang of things. If I were to do it again I think I could do it in half the time. This time however I had unlocked the next planet and wanted to give it a go at a slightly harder difficulty setting. The harder setting kinda turned me off because of how many mines I had to continually babysit. It just wasn’t worth my time. With this difficulty setting, everything u build to affect the atmosphere comes with a high credit cost that puts a negative for the duration of the building. The more buildings, the worse it it. Of course you can demolish or disable the building, but that defeats the whole purpose. I would play this game on easy, but other than that, it wouldn’t be worth the mining time.

Blown away. I don’t even know where to begin with this app. It’s 100% as cool as it sounds. I saw it on Facebook and I never download them but it showed how well it was rated in the App Store so I knew it had to be something legit. Gave it a try and now I’m addicted to it. There isn’t really too much I would change to the game other than being able to see ground level and have more control over what happens to the population. As far as what the game is, terraforming a planet, they did an amazing job. I’m sure you can control more but on the basic difficulty level (I highly recommend to start with) you can control the temperature, oxygen, pressure, plant life, money, population size. Everything is highly sensitive. Finding a balance takes time. This is a game that won’t take up too much time at once. You might only play this game a couple times out the day but it’s necessary to check in on your planet every once in a while. Random events and scenarios happen to the population and the planet which I really love. From a meteoroid on track to hit you, to the population finding a great athlete to honor amongst them. It gives the game a story. You have to make a decision when those things happen immersing you into the game even more. And of course Every action has a reaction. The main task of this game is finding that balance. I’m so glad I found this game. The space nerd in me is ecstatic! I highly recommend!!!

Love TerraGenesis!. I am a sci-fi aficionado. I read it, I watch it, I write it, I live and breathe it. And dammit it’s like this game was made with me in mind. There graphics are stunning, the science behind the game is sound, the discussion on the ethics of terraforming is absolutely fascinating, the worldbuilding is amazing (“City X has developed a local legend!” “City Y’s accent is developing into a dialect! Ooh, now it’s become an entirely new language!” “City Z just opened a new genetic park which is basically Jurassic Park, and, quote, we expect nothing to go wrong!”) and the ongoing story of the world is absolutely delightful. I also like that the game is a mix of skill and a little luck, like real life. Sometimes you get a random boon from the game, sometimes you get a random setback, and sometimes you have to solve a trolley problem dilemma where both options are a little good and a little bad. That adds a lot of fun to the game, and it helps teach you how to become a better player—you gotta save a pile of credits in case you need that money to fix a sudden problem, etc. But more than that, it’s skill and strategy. And that way, you eventually learn to make any random events work in your favor. Anyway, it’s so much fun. This is a great, great game. Thanks TerraGenesis! I plan on purchasing the fictional worlds pack once I’m done with the free worlds!

Best free game on the App Store. For background, this is my first and only review on the App Store. Personally, reviewing games seems pointless to me. But, this is the greatest free game you could find. The different difficulties provide the user with hours of advanced strategical gameplay or a binge session of mars independence. The tutorial is very helpful and explains almost all aspects of gameplay. A game that seems far too complex for a phone game player is, instead, a terraforming sandbox with endless scenarios. Have not made it to the paid portions of the game, but will certainly buy. Another thing to note is the option of payment versus free fun. Even without spending a dollar you can enjoy certain planets. The option to watch ads is available and extremely beneficial, but are not necessary for completion of a planet. Also, in weeks gameplay the ask to rate has only come up once (hence this post), and it was so small and mixed into the game that it was hardly noticed. All in all, great game, great fun, good tidings. Thank you developers for letting me conquer the stars.

Good game!. I love this game. I’ve been playing for a few months. I also love how doing things in the game can help the planet by planting trees. However, I have two suggestions. One is that you should be able to transfer credits back and forth between games. I’m currently in the process of terraforming two different planets, and one is really struggling economically while the other is doing great. It would be really nice if I could loan myself some money to build the space elevator, or even just to demolish existing depleted mines so I could build new ones and get myself out of the hole. My other suggestion is that you should be able to get new planets and moons to terraform without paying for them. I finished with all five terrestrial planets long ago and now I’m just stuck with them. I want to terraform the moons of other planets and planets in other solar systems. I want to terraform a planet with a native population detected, to see what it’s like. But no. I love this game but I as a rule do not make in-app purchases. Why bother making people pay for planets anyway? Maybe you can make them cost gp so people will pay for that but could also save up for it if they didn’t want to spend real money? Overall, though, it’s a great game. I really love how you just give out special currency for the price of watching an ad. Keep that up! And please consider my ideas!

A Console-Level Game On My Phone. I didn't want to like this game, because I've never really been into terraforming or sci-fi games. Terragenesis is an exception to that, and with good reason. This game offers the challenge of having to balance environmental, socio-political, and economic challenges in a way that really makes it come to life. The attention to detail does stand out, with how different levels of Temperature, Pressure, Oxygen, and other things will change the appearance of your planet. The best thing about this game is easily watching your planet change. Watching as the structures and cities you build and all the facilities can change a barren planet like Mars slowly change into a beautiful, thriving planet like Earth, or even watching as Earth slowly decays from a tropical paradise to another copy of Mars. Whats more is the developers aren't greedy with in-game purchases. The difficulty curves can be overcome without the help of Genesis Points (though it is not preferable,) the developers offer frequent ads that in turn boost credit revenue or give the player free Genesis points (Pretty rare for devs to hand out special currency like that) and the ads aren't very intrisive either. The game doesn't require an internet connection so it can be played on the go, the game will continue to change, so if you are playing a volatile world remember to pause when needed, and start on Mars, the easiest planet.

I can not describe how utterly amazing this is. This is literally (in my opinion) the best game ever. But I could go on and on about that so I'll just cut to the chase. It will be hard I know to add a entire solar system but, if you do not want to do that then you could add an option to mess with the nitrogen levels and also there should be a way to unlock the other solar systems besides the first one naturally like if you complete all of the previous solar systems on the hardest mode and all of the sections like oxygen and heat exactly at the goal ( as an example sample Mars, earth, Venus, and Mercury all completed on the hardest mode with sections like oxygen on 100'000and that would unlock Jupiters moons) that way people who really do not want to spend money and people who are really good at the game do not have t pay money. All in all I love this game and every time I play it I get a huge adrenalin rush so keep up the good work. ( also a tip to new players money is key and once you get enough to start making 100,000 credits a minute the game gets tremendously easier but what do I know I've only terraformed mars on easy mode)

Awesome. One of the best apps I have on my phone, totally worth the download, definitely start at beginner, when I first tried this app, I started on intermediate, I couldn’t figure anything out, because it’s so complicated, but in beginner mode it actually brings an adequate understanding, also, there’s always something to keep you busy, between multitudes of different planetary effects to work on like population, economy, and ecology as well as other planets to work on, and other galaxies both real and fictional, and you see it change in real time. I haven’t spent a dime on this game and have been able to make plenty of currency in every form available in game, granted, YOU WILL NEED TO CONSTANTLY WATCH ADS, but it’s worth it, very easy if you’re multitasking to just stack up adds and keep your income multiplier running, also has a feature to shut off progress Incase you don’t plan on visiting the app for a while, over all this is an extremely well thought out piece of art, I’m thankful for the person who made this, I’ve learned a lot and enjoyed it

Incredible game, some issues with crashing. I’ve been meaning to try this game for ages, and finally had the time. It’s absolutely as cool as it looks, and manages to be challenging without being too frustrating to enjoy. Getting started can be kind of slow, since it takes quite a while for the planet to change when you only have a few things built, but once you get going it’s very fun. The game’s market seems fairly well balanced, and it’s reasonably easy to earn currency, especially if you’re willing to watch a few adds, which are otherwise very unobtrusive. Now onto the issue: while my first several days playing the game went fine, recently it has started to crash frequently. Both the game and my device are fully updated, so I don’t think that’s the issue. I’ve had more than one world going at a time before as I’ve played through some of the events, but now that I have a more permanent second world with the biospheres option enabled, the game crashes fairly often. Sometimes I’m able to play for several minutes without anything going wrong, but other times it’ll crash within thirty second of opening the app.

Really good, but I think we can add more things. This is an amazing game, not going to delve deep into that, but I think we can also add a few more things. First it would be cool to customize your own planets like a heat or cold bar or a switch that decides if you want your planet to be tidally locked or not tidally locked ( tidally locked means that the planet has a desert,ocean,or volcanic day side, and a cold and icy night side, reminder that the tidally locked planets never spin horizontally meaning it’s forever day on one side and forever night on the other side). Orbital rings would also be a very nice addition ( both Saturn rings and artificial rings that look like the halo rings from the game of the same name). An energy category like the temperature or pressure category could exist too, with wind,solar,and hydroelectric power plants. Once the planet has gotten a oxygen atmosphere you can also create coal power plants that decrease oxygen levels but can create more heat. Then there are fusion power plants that create massive amounts of energy with no side-effects. Also because you have a governor that created genetically engineered literal treehouses it would be cool if there was a giant tree thingy like the forest stand but BIGGER

Absolutely Love It. Yes, this app is as cool as it sounds, if not cooler. While apps across the App Store get simpler, and frankly, more boring, TerraGenesis will bring life back to your game list. Literally! This app truly has the depth of a computer game, and it runs great. It is very realistic and everything generates very slowly and visually so that you can truly see your planet, whether it be in our solar system, on the moons of the gas giants, dwarf planets, or many many other options (at least thirdy, each with its own intense description, plus randomly generated planets). It is visually appealing, and very high quality. This being said, the game may not be for everybody. You have to have SOME kind of interest in Geology or Astronomy to truly fall head over heels for this app. It’s still a great building and idle app if you don’t, but you may not be as fanatical about it as me. Also, as I said, it is mostly an idle app. You can have the moon’s atmosphere pressurizing in your pocket, but while on the app there isn’t a WHOLE lot to do other than manage everything for about 10-20 minutes a couple times a day. You will not be on this app all day, but the app will be on all day. Keep this in mind. Overall, if you’re thinking “this looks pretty cool”, GET IT. Seriously. It is NOT pay to play, it’s not cheap, it’s not buggy, it’s not boring, but it is sexy. Do it.

Been playing for years. I’ve been playing this game on and off for two years and it never gets old, and there are plenty of world to play with. If you’re playing with a simple developing biosphere you can terraform a moon/planet in 4-5 days without spending any real money for in-game boosts (called Genesis Points or GP), 2-3 of you do buy these boosts. If you play with a biosphere you can fine tune it’s definitely more of a challenge and terraforming this way might take you 4-5 days with boosts, a week or a little longer without. WATCHING ADS IS COMPLETELY OPTIONAL, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORCED TO WATCH AN AD 🙌🏻 (putting that in all-caps because ad trap games are everywhere these days) but watching the offered ads gives you bonuses to your income and even 1-3 GP sometimes. Watch enough ads and you could have income bonuses for days (literally). Random positive and negative events that can affect your income, structures, organisms, or culture keep you on your toes if you leave the game open, but you don’t have to worry about bad events happening while the game is closed and the terraforming continues when closed, so this game is great for people who don’t want to have to play all the time to succeed. The game can also be paused so you don’t have to worry about letting things go for too long and accidentally destroying your progress. Graphics are pretty and the game runs smoothly. Definitely earned my 5 star rating!

I LOVE THIS GAME. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS GAME! I am already obsessed with terraforming planets and this game is fantastic! It might take a while to terraform a planet, but it is so cool! There are 4 factions and there is one faction that hates terraforming, (Sons of Hephaestus) one faction that loves it. (Daughters of Gaia, my personal favorite) One faction that wants you to have a 1 googolplex people, (United Nations Space Administration) and another that wants you to have 100 googolplex dollars. (Horizon Corporation) There are governors that boost or decrease your production of oxygen, water, pressure, temperature, etc. There are satellites that cost a lot of money, but help you a lot. There are no ads, but you can watch ads to boost your population, revenue, or cultural revenue. To win, you have to gain independence, and accomplish your faction’s goal, ex: Paradise habitability. If you select biosphere instead of biomass, you can genetically modify and create animals, plants and bacteria to fit your needs. If I could request something, I would ask for a city view, and make the satellites visible so you can see how it looks on the surface on the planet and how the satellite looks. I respect all the work edgeworks has put on this game, and I absolutely love it! If you haven’t downloaded it already, do it! It’s free!

Mind-blowing!. Hey, this is the single most epic game on the App Store right now! I love how technical this game gets. When you increase air pressure, the temperature goes up because of atmospheric thickening. Same thing happens when you thin the atmosphere, only the temperature goes down! I still only have the terrestrial planets + the moon, and I’m having a blast! There is so much to do in just the base game that you don’t need the expansions to enjoy the game to its utmost potential. I love the fact that natural disasters like quakes, meteors, and plagues happen. It makes the challenge that much more awesome. I think it would be amazing if you guys could make it so that you can set up trade routes between your planets to give a little boost to your economy or population growth. I also think that adding more disasters like occasional volcanic eruptions from the Martian volcanoes, violent dust storms, or even wildfires (when you actually have biomass). Maybe also sea trade routes is a good idea for cities along the coast line? That would be so awesome! I only have one bug to report. I went back to review Mars after I had moved on to Venus, and all of the plantlife had disappeared. 4.6 billion people had left the planet because all the biomass disappeared. It was very confusing. Other than that, I have no problems with the game! Keep up the good work!

Good with problems. As soon as you start the game it immediately asks if you consent to it using your info for personalized ads, whether you press yes or no it does anyways, it takes your phone number and email, etc. it’s honestly a really fun game with lots to it, but good god almighty the ads are literally unbearable, played it for a few months now and I got a lot of progress but then ads started making the entire app crash and you couldn’t open it because it would open right into an uncloseable ad, sometimes it would instead open into the game but within 30 seconds it will open a different ad that either crashes the game completely, or it forces you into the App Store. Developers please if you see this, I would much much much rather have this app be $1.99 flat fee and then no ads and no more crashing. Speaking of transactions, there’s a LOT of micros transactions, makes the game seem like it’s made by EA, just make the game a flat fee and fix the game. Also there are events that happen every once and a while that you cannot really avoid, it sorta forces you to be part of them and it can stunt the progress of beginner players. Sincerely: a man who really wants this game to be good. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

Can you fix the Moon’s name?. Great game! I just want to point out that the way people talk about the moon, they don’t say “the moon”, they just say “moon”. For example, when I enter the game I see: “Your colonists on Moon have earned 50,000c!” It would be better for them to say: “Your colonists on THE Moon have earned 50,000c!” Obviously it wouldn’t be like that, it would say: “the Moon” not “THE Moon”. Another way you could do it is to name it “Luna” instead of Moon. It looks nicer either way. One unrelated thing I suggest is to get a notification if your planet is starting to reach inhospitable levels of something. It wouldn’t notify if you are already inhospitable and are going towards hospitable, only if you are hospitable and going to inhospitable levels of something. And also notify if you are at a perfect level of something and should balance the loss and growth so you don’t go towards inhospitable levels. Another one (sorry I just keep getting new ideas), please make it so you can link two devices progress. I only play it on my iPad, but I want to play it on my phone too, but it's separate. If you could make it so we can link two devices progress that would be great. And when I say "link", I mean if you do something on one device, it automatically puts it on the other device, once they are connected to the internet.

Just download it.. This game... wow. Where to even begin..? The feelings of pride invoked by the crafting of a delicate ecosystem and watching as your citizens take off with their own ideas- from investing in leveling up your facilities to writing hit songs about your colony- are akin to what I feel in real life as a parent. And then to wake up in the morning to discover you’ve flooded your first ill-placed colony... crushing. Everything about TerraGenesis is a stroke of brilliance, right down to the bone-chilling soundtrack. As it is, TerraGenesis has plenty to do, from strategizing how to maintain the perfect atmospheric pressure while simultaneously figuring out how to balance the warmth of the planet to constructing profitable mines and so much more. I do find myself wishing for campaign play, however. A short challenge such as “the citizens of Mars are rapidly depleting their planet’s water sources, solve their problem within X number of years to win” could be a nice change of pace from the (at times) overwhelming responsibility of building a perfectly balanced ecosystem of an entire planet from scratch.

Love this game but a few glitches. I really was enjoying this game a lot. I finished a few planets and then it was time to do earth. When I started earth it was already inhabited and everything was where it was supposed to be with oxygen, etc. I thought this strange. So I started doing research and mining. Went to bed. Got up next morning and my mines were lost to rising seas and all the inhabitants were gone. So I checked all the stats and everything was still perfect with oxygen,water, etc. Weird. So I built the thing that causes minus 4 water and built more mines. Next day it said they were lost to rising waters but that was impossible since the water had actually gone down a couple of hundred. So aggravating. So now I’ve been waiting for the population to build back up. My next culture point is at 4 billion so I’ll be waiting a while. Lol Was really enjoying this game until this happened. You have to be able to do math and figure out actions and counter actions. Taxes the brain. But when the game just erases things built and people for no apparent reason it’s frustrating. If you judge this game on the first few planets I played it is an amazing game. I was actually going to buy one of their packages but decided to wait after this earth catastrophe. If it goes back to normal I will probably wind up purchasing a package. It’s that good a game when it plays right

Solid Game. TerraGenesis is a good game straight out of the gate. It immerses you slowly into the elements of the game and the more you play, the more you start to figure out how everything works together to achieve a balance that makes your planet habitable. Its pretty cool to watch your planet go from barren wasteland to garden paradise. TG also does a good job of making the different things you build never really be obsolete. It may seem wise to upgrade everything in your colony to the highest level but you quickly learn that its better to change things on a small scale when you come back to a planet that has been flooded and only your highest elevation colonies remain. Once you master the balancing act of planetary control, start a game using biospheres and start a whole nee journey of learning as you try to create unique organisms that can survive on your new planet. Its a whole new level of difficulty and enjoyment. Overall, assuming you are the kind of gamer that enjoyable more casual game interaction, this game is solid and well worth the effort to learn.

I’d rate this ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ if I could.. I honestly don’t know where to start, it’s a great game and I love the idea of it. I like how you get to see the planet change as you add atmosphere or water, I have finished all the planets that don’t require money and I enjoyed the result of seeing the whole solar system terraformed, I like normal mode as you have to check your game often to increase revenue, i like how you have to balance everything. my overall recommend strategy is to go with the Gaians, and make the planet a paradise, fill it with cities, and fill the cities with coral reefs, coral reefs increase people, revenue, and biomass, so they are the best things in the game. Now for me often society collapses every 2k years or so, but starts back up right away If I had to add anything it would be more interactions with the people, like taxing them to increase revenue, and they could have like a happiness rate, if it’s to low they could destroy facilities, if it’s higher than facilities could cost less, this happiness rate could also have its toll on how many people move in and move out! You could do a lot with this idea so I’d like to throw it out there. I doubt it will be added as the game is focused more on the planet than the in game people. But still a suggestion nonetheless.

Good game until Time Traveler event hit me 5 times.. I had this app for a while, and then deleted it to save space because I wasn't using the game anymore. I recently came back to it, and have been playing a lot. I was working on terraforming both Mercury and the Moon almost simultaneously, and had just about finished Moon. All I needed was some more water, as sea levels were just barely above minimum for habitability, and population to get Culture Points to reach 100% independence. However, I came back today and was hit in total with the "time traveler" event a total of 5 times within several minutes. For those unaware of the nature of the event, it stems from cheating by changing the time on your device. However, I was not cheating in any way and have hardly even been on my phone today. I went from a near-perfectly terraformed Moon with an almost perfect ecosystem to a Moon with over 2,000,000 pressure and total mass extinction of all my 20+ species, not to mention other terribly affected statistics (surprisingly though, oxygen was only a little over 1,000 ppm away from perfect). To top it off, my credits went from around 50,000,000 to 100,000 in a matter of minutes. I understand that the point of this event is to prevent cheating, but by randomly activating without me cheating all it has accomplished is driving away me and my money I was once considering spending on more worlds than the basic three you start off with.

Awesome Game!. I’ve tried so many other games like this one, trying to advance my country or prep my apocalypse base. Those apps always and consistently bombard me with advertisements to the point that I learned when exactly I will get them. They also force me to check in every twenty minutes, or else my country will fall into ruin. This game does none of that. Viewing adds is completely voluntary, and always give rewards. You can also leave your game alone for days on end with no negative effects, and can even pause progression if you intend to be absent for extended periods of time, a feature I’ve never seen any other app of this kind offer. This game also has amazing graphics, especially for a mobile game. It also doesn’t force you to follow a certain storyline, but does offer it if you want it. And I understand this isn’t a problem everyone has, but personally when the science or logic of a game wouldn’t work IRL it has always bugged me. This game doesn’t do that, though. The science is based off of NASA technology, and as far as I can tell is theoretically possible. All in all, it is an AMAZING game, and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in it.

Exactly the type of game I’ve been looking for!. Beautiful, challenging, and entertaining! Truly an amazing app and brain game. Choose a planet and a faction; each one will decide your inter-planetary culture. Learn which elements of your planet need to be changed in order to adapt life. Be wise when choosing which facilities to research and build; really study what levels your planet needs to reach! Then again, you could opt to just leave the terraforming alone, and populate the planet with buildings and corporations. I’ve only been playing for the last few days or so, but currently have two different thriving planets (after some trial-and-error.) The graphics are beautiful and clean, and the layout is simple and functional. I really love the soothing music, as well. Besides all of the game mechanics, which are well thought out and graphics-driven, you are given a “pay for play” set up. The good news is that the game’s currency (Genesis Points or GP), birthrate boosts, and double mining and cultural revenue are basically thrown at you in the form of watching ads. So worth it to get some extra GP though! I love this game! Thank you :D

Good game, some recommendations. This app is really fun. I could go on and on about how great it is but I want to get to the point. It's stressful. Most high tier buildings emit something that effects your terraforming efforts. Usually these can be pretty frustrating to balance out. This is why I really like the soletta ( or whatever it's called ). It regulates heat for you. I really think there should be satellites that have similar effect. Maybe only working when the level is in the green. There is also an issue with wanting to turn down terraforming plants. For example allowing thermal dust lvl 5 ( usually does +10 ) to +6 without needing to build and upgrade a new one. Just little things like that. I also think there should be a little more assistance with the biosphere. It's crazy difficult to make everything balanced. Maybe have something that will recommend what to do within your biosphere (ex. Increase bacteria support) and stuff like that. Those were some thinks that I think would make the game a little more fun to play. I've just realized that isn't a real review but... oh well 😊

Awesome game but still bit buggy.. I love this game it is something that I really haven’t seen on mobile devices before and it is quite refreshing. I found my self enjoying every bit. One feature that I have never seen before was the “anti time travel feature”. In a lot of non multiplayer games such as this you can cheat the system and change the date so as not spend time waiting something I used to exploit but have come to hate. But instead of just disabling the feature the developers have implemented a system that while you may be able to go forward attempting to bring the date back to the real time will result in a time traveling accident which will cripple your economy and wreck your ecosystem. Very clever. I would like to mention that you are able to open multiple menu which overlay each other constantly. (Pls fix this) the random events are awesome but ones involving requests to change your culture are buggy and can allow you to reap the benefits multiple times without suffering a change to your culture. Overall if the bugs are fixed and this game is able to keep it fresh with new content I will be happy to keep playing for as long as my phone is able to operate.

Uuummm... wow just wow..... This game is amazing and I’ve playing for months.I just don’t know what to say. Though I do have a couple suggestions, for the animal part of the biosphere there should be things like stinger, maybe -1 poplutlation per minute and -20 percent support needed, venom, -2 population per minute and -50 percent support needed, hive, -1000 credits per minute and +100 percent birth rate. And then there could also be a new faction called exoplanet operations, which it’s victory conditions, 100 percent independence and have 5 cities and maybe also get to max biomass/ get all support things in the biosphere to at least 10.0 ( like micro support, plant support, and meat support) and it’s policies would be 5 percent bio friendly as in all parts that have bio related stuff in the policies, 100 percent democratic, and 100 percent knowledge. Also, I’d like to be able to see your cities at ground level with the people, buildings, plants, and animals. It would also be nice if you got notifications for stuff like if you earned culture points, reach inhospitable levels, and if you won a saved game. Again, blown away.

Such a cool game. Honestly, this is one of the few games that I keep coming back to on my phone because it is so satisfying. It’s so cool to watch your planet slowly change into a beautiful habitable world. It doesn’t happen fast, so you definitely have to put some time into it. You can certainly play the game without ever needing to watch an ad, but if you choose to watch the ads it can really speed up the process so that you can play it more instead of mostly AFK. I think that’s my only problem with the game though… I wish there was a bit more to do. You can probably only play for 20 minutes max before you run out of things to do then you have to wait for things to research or to be built. I think it would be cool if you could make one of your settlements the “Capital” and that settlement would have increased population growth or other benefits, and maybe it takes a culture point or two to declare a capital. I dunno, it’s just a thought! Nonetheless, I really applaud the developers for making this game because there’s really nothing else similar on the app store (to my knowledge) and it is right up my alley. Please keep working on this game, you have something great!

Educational & Fun!!. I am obsessed with this game! The strategic format and scientific (semi) accuracy makes for a very interactive game! I feel this game should be used in educational settings. Instead of giving kids an egg or a fake baby to take care of for a week have the class download this game and they will learn more about responsibility and the environment. Plus it teaches patients and balance. But most importantly it teaches how easily humans can affect the atmosphere and environment to help teach a complex topic such as Climate Change and Global Warming. The only critique I can give is that when you “view your colony” it’s just a view blurry pixels overlaid on the image of the planet. But that’s being nit-picky this game is a masterpiece. Now they just need to make a console version that once you develop your world you can build an economy and take care of the happiness of the colonists. Kind of like combining Terragenesis with Tropico 5. You must download this game, but 1 word of advice - pause your game before going to bed or your atmosphere or ecosystems could collapse if you are in the beginning strategies of development of the planet. Good Luck & Download it!!

I Love This Game. Like the title says, I love this game. Granted, you need to be in to astrology and such, but it is so satisfying to see your planets develop and grow. There isn’t much gameplay, but it can be great when you finally manage to get your planet habitable and can start working towards independence, and it’s a surprise when you start working towards independence in your very first game and then get bombed by terrorists! And the fact that for each planet you need to tweak your strategy to suit the unique challenge is amazing. I’m glad that every single planet doesn’t have the exact same goal for each fracture, (temp, O2, etc) is amazing. My one wish for the game is the price tag for each new campaign. I wish that you had more free gameplay after the first four Terrestrial planets ( plus the moon). I understand the fact the developer needs to make money, but the fact that you need to spend 20$ for all campaigns, ( I’m not sure if the planet generator is included) which is actually 50% off makes me kind of disappointed. But I still love the game, and I will still play it, but I just wanted to share my opinion on the matter.

Satisfying Simulation. If you’re someone who really loves watching progress happen in simulation games, then this is probably one of the most satisfying games you’ll play. After working for days to set up Mars for sustainable human life, I saw greenery spreading for the first time. I was mesmerized, watching it start from the shorelines and spread inland. And then coming back later to see that as the greenery thickened, it grew darker as well was pleasing. My only downside is the time. This game requires you to be punctual if you don’t want to spend a lot of time undoing what you should have cams back for earlier to stabilize. I didn’t realize this in the beginning and turned Mars into a gas giant. It took so long to come back from that that it would have actually been better off to restart the game. Now I’m at the point where humans are living amongst Mars life freely, but I’ll be waiting a long time before I finally achieve victory because I put very few culture points into independence before. Now I just have to stabilize everything for the next few days while I wait for enough people to live on the planet before I can claim victory and am able to move on to other planets. All in all, it’s a great game. Just make sure you pay attention to when you need to log back in to change things, or it’s gonna become a never ending nightmare.

Good but... It's a good game! Bout a gross mission came up, offering me 100million if I watch I video. I was only at 5million so I was very happy but then another came up and deleted it. So I have to rate it 4 'cause of that. Also you should get a noifacation if your world has too much of something, Good game! Edit: you should also add other planets like proxima b, and that Kepler system with that habitable planet. (Sorry forgot name) and maybe even a solar system generator, and an option for you to find life in the solar system (1 - 4 bodies with life). Of course you would have lots of settings for that and probably only have 3 slots for that. Also the stars are lowest mass E0 to a A4 - 8 star with a usually long lifetime, also have an option to view the moons of gas giants, maybe even moons with 0.05 the size of Luna to view! Even in the solar system. Also have a boost size generator. Will be very expensive but vital for small Enceladus sized bodies which will give the moon 5 miles of land, which will slowly evolve into a average sized moon. But be careful with Phobos as it gets bigger, the more land will be pulled into mars which could devastate both, which could add an option to very slowly extend the orbit, (depending the mass, will change the maximum distance and minimum)

This Game is worth the $$. While the initial game is free, to unlock the entire game it was $20 for me. Was worth it. Most games are filled with adds that just waste your time because they are free and that's how the game makes money. And then on top of that, most games have your in-game money, which runs out ridiculously fast, and then they have chips that you can buy with REAL cash to get more in-game money. NOT THIS GAME. Yes, this game has all of those features, but you don't HAVE to use them to enjoy the game. First off, you can have several planets running simultaneously so you can kill time on one planet by just playing a parallel one. Easy. Second, the adds actually reward you for watching them, and they stack too. So you can watch 5 adds for 5 hours of a bonus and then you don't have to watch any more adds for that bonus. If you're REALLY impatient, you can buy more in-game cash, but it doesn't run out ridiculously fast like other games, so just wait a day and you'll have a huge stack of cash again that you can do lots of things with. Really cool game with lots of in-depth features. It's basically a resource management game with cool graphics and atmosphere. The music is nice too.

Enjoying the game (so far!). I too, along with many others, thought this would be just another game that is featured in thousands upon thousands of ads, only to load it up and it be a garbage game that isn’t what was advertised. BOY, was I pleasantly surprised! Not only was it what it was advertised, it is genuinely fun, creative, and engaging! I’m in the process of terraforming Mars right now, and I think I will invest the money to buy more planets and moons as I go along, cause I’m having so much fun with it. The game isn’t pay to win, has NO ads that you HAVE to watch (you get boosts if you do), and you can leave the game, come back, and progress is still being made as you’re gone. And the best thing about this game, is that the developers aren’t penny-pinchers. They offer in-game purchases, but aren’t in your face about it like most other game companies, and you can easily play this game without spending a penny and still have a good time! Assuming no bugs or anomalous happenings occur, I will continue to play this game and I will invest in the game by purchasing all the worlds. Cheers!

Astonishing. I’m still fairly new to this game but it is way cooler than I expected it to be. It feels so real as you have the power to shape life on a planetary scale and watching how it works. Especially cool for people with no knowledge on science, it’s super realistic and provides an insane level of insight on how life begins on planets just like it began on ours. My only suggestions would be maybe add more “random events” that happen so often, more revolving around your people and moral decisions, I.e something like risk losing your population to save a ton of your money or important buildings vs let them die and keep it, events meant to put into perspective how your mass expansion over decades still has individual’s lives involved. Aside from that, maybe more factions or sub trees of what culture you want to go for, rather than just one side of the coin or the other. Of course it’s upsetting to have to buy extra worlds but if anyone deserves to make money off app purchases it’s these guys. DIED in laughter at the Bill Wurtz reference in the historical earths description, prompted me to write the review. Very awesome game. The sun is a deadly laser.

Terrible In The End. At first I really liked this game. All of the little details and the game mechanics seemed pretty unique to me, which keep me coming back. And on top of that, the graphics was nice and the game ran smoothly. Then one day I was playing and 14,000 out of 27,000 people randomly disappeared. I was upset. Then I lost half of my money randomly. I checked everything to see if there was anything that could’ve caused this but there was nothing. I almost deleted it, but continued to play reluctantly. Then my two colonies(in the same game) became abandoned for no reason. I tried playing on different planets and the same thing happened, even in beginner mode, so I deleted it. Then I decided to give it another chance. Every single colony I started became abandoned, and the most one ever survived was two days. I tried playing all different types of ways and the same thing kept happening. All of these times my planet was habitable. Once again, I deleted the game. For the last time I downloaded the game, and the same pattern continued. Why are my people disappearing for no reason? Sometimes I’m notified, sometimes I’m not. I just want a reason so I can avoid it. I really want to love this game, and was thinking about buying other planets, but if this is the way that the game will work I’ll bring my money elsewhere.

Money grab?. I’ve spent a total of $20 dollars on this game. It was all going great and really happy that my money went towards a tree getting planted in the real world. Since then ive received a message to say that my save data was corrupted and that I had to upload from phone to data or cloud data. It said that my current saved data was smaller than my previous save data on the cloud. So I went the option to upload from my device. Since then I lost all of my progress. All the money that I have spent wasted because of silly glitch with the information being very misleading. Customer support please contact me.

Great game but…. Now it’s an absolutely great game and it’s free so why not but… the population. I can’t control it and I can’t make enough biomass to feed them so can you please make a way to control my population and I preferred the old way of victory. Here’s an idea for the population maybe you could do exchanges and what I mean is there’s a rocket that takes a certain amount of people to another planet if there’s space or just it’s habitable for humans and animals, on another note I have no other problems. 🙂

Great game. Absolutely love TerraGenesis! Hours of fun, love that I can pause the game as well so that my planet doesn’t flood or something while I’m away from the game. I’d love to see more detail in the graphics, proper cities rather than just blue light on the map, different visuals for different kinds of biomass, as well as an animal population chart, bringing more than just human life to the planet. I don’t understand why colonies can’t be built closer together, seems irrelevant to me the closeness of colonies, would like to see a change in that. All in all a fantastic game that can only get better!

Game Review Critics. Games pretty good except for the fact most of it's locked unless you pay for it, though there's still quite a bit available for free. However the most recent update has changed my rating from 5 stars to 3. Loading times are a lot longer, and most importantly all the buttons have been made really small (hit area). It seems as if this has been a blanket change to all iOS devices, it would be great on iPad but it's hopeless on iPhone. The graphics of the game all look worse now too as of the "zooming out" (miniaturising). Edit: I came back after not playing for a few weeks and now the whole things really glitchy e.g. pressing buttons, scrolling. The buttons lag heaps and because of this you often get three buttons in one place. You have to scroll from one side of the screen to the other instead of just using a small amount of screen. Also it would be great if the app didn't stop what you were listening to, music, audiobooks, etc.

Enjoyable strategy. Greatly enjoying this game. I have terraformed and achieved victory on Mars and I've got the Moon underway. This game has struck a good balance between simplicity and detail with regards to planning out the multiple facets of achieving terraformation. It's also struck a nice balance in terms of how much of your attention it demands, you could just as easily tweak the game every ten minutes or twice a day. It's easy to play without making any in-app purchases and there's plenty of variety on offer, once you achieve victory on one planet in unlocks a new one for you to move on to in addition to the three free planets initially offered. Great game, strongly recommended.

Awesome game! But one thing. This game is truly spectacular! But my only suggestion is that you could play beginner and bioSPHERE at the same time instead of having to play normal or hard because I love the biosphere feature but I’m a REALLY casual player so I want to play biosphere with the beginner mode. Other than that I have nothing else to say! I definitely recommend this to people 👍

Fun but..... I find this game very fun and challenging but it gets to a stage where it’s stupid. I was doing very well on Mercury, I could support plant life and such, and then I get on the game and “someone has gone back in time” and literally screwed the whole planet over, this should not be in the game, it just reverts all your progress plus more and kills your society off. I don’t know if there are other in game features like this but if you click on casual, everything you have worked for shouldn’t be reset but other than that I’m enjoying the game.

It’s free so why not? ⭐️. I originally wasn’t planning on downloading this game as it didn’t seem like my genre, but now I’m glad I did. I also NEVER write reviews, so the fact I’m taking time out of my day to rate this game 5 stars should speak volumes. The developer has struck a nice balance between simplicity, complexity and fun with this game. It’s an easy game to understand and there is enough offered to keep you coming back. It’s very satisfying to Terraform a whole planet and you kinda feel like a God while doing it, which is always nice. But you can’t play God all day and thankfully with this game you can pick it up once a week or every 5 minutes and you’ll still reach the end goal without any issues. The archives is also a great edition, detailing the real life science behind the game and it’s concepts. The ONLY issue I have with this game is that 90% of the planets are locked behind a paywall. This isn’t so bad because there is enough content to keep you going and the game is already very generous with its premium currency but it would be nice to be able to unlock some of these new planets by completing difficult challenges in game without the need to spend real money. It would also be nice to expand the archives with more information as it was a great read. I really strongly recommend you download the game and give it a try. It’s free so what can you lose? ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Issue with new update. I’ve been a long time player, upgrading Mars, checking in periodically, etc. but with the recent update I’ve been getting event notifications (such as a meteor or free upgrade to a building) and simply am unable to remove it. Any time I attempt to select an option, it allows it but persists, forcing me to refuse/accept more times than I wish and delay my expansion into the solar system or restart the app to repeat the cycle. Overall a great game to play if you have 5 minutes to spare every now-and-again but this recent bug has made it nearly unplayable for me.

It’s great just one problem. I’ve noticed that the construction for all the major satellites like ‘orbital defence against world killer asteroids’ I’ve started the construction and I’ve noticed that every time I’ve got back on the game the timer for the construction restarted all over again and this is really making me unhappy since I spent days just to get that only to have to wait indefinitely please fix then I’ll happily give you your 5 star

This game is quite enjoyable.. At first, it was a little hard to learn what everything did, but once that hurdle is overcome, the game becomes both fun and challenging, where you have to manage all aspects of your planet while not allowing the stats to get too high. Over time, once all is researched and the planet is thriving, more planets are unlocked, allowing you to take a new approach at terraforming the planet. And, for a low price of $30, all planets within the galaxy become available to you. If you get bored of an already made planet, you can purchase a relatively cheap item in the game store which allows you to custom generate a planet to terraform. Once in a while, an event will also play, allowing you to be granted a new planet to work with in a limited time, which grants you rewards after certain points are met. Finally, to top off this review, the game devs also plant a tree the longer you play, allowing you to not only enjoy terraforming the in game planets, but it also allows us to help this planet stay alive. All in all, this is a game I thoroughly enjoyed within my free time. Thank you developers for allowing us to play such a good game.

Really fun!. This is my first review because I hate writing them but this game is genuinely really great. Took me a while to figure out how to make money (because I had -%60 financial growth) but once I figured it out, I’ve been flying through. It’s a game about management. Have too much oxygen, your people die of oxygen poisoning - too little, they suffocate. Too little water, no way to grow plants. Too much and everyone drowns. Give it a go. You won’t regret it.

Just a solidly good game. Right off the bat this is well worth the try, don’t be put by by most of the chapters being behind a paywall, they still supply you with solid days worth of gameplay just on our solar system. Surprisingly in depth game for a mobile game and very well balanced. The realism of it adds a whole new level, using what I’m pretty sure are real world maps of other planets, realistic atmospheres and the surprising little changes that occur as your colony and it’s people grow in size and in culture.

Ok now.... Didn’t think it would be that great, just another freemium game that I would delete after two days, but oh boy, I was wrong. First of all, the graphics They are really nice, and pleasing as well to see your planets come along. They have that futuristic vibe that I personally love, and it’s got a personal touch. Hell, there are even little clouds and rotation, I just love it. The gameplay Not too short, but not too long either. Strikes the balance between engaging gameplay and careful planning, as well as a focus on waiting for things to fit together as you literally change an entire planet from inhospitable to a new world. Many ways of progressing that I could play the same planet over and over And last but certainly not least, the complexity I absolutely love complex games, and to have elements of actual real world physics and planet models, it’s truly something to behold. Here is just so much to this game than meets the eye, and you could say I was genuinely surprised It even has little sub cultures, factions and different play styles to chose from In all, if I could rate the game any higher, I would. In fact, it’s worth paying for, but it’s free 👌 Thank you developers for actually putting effort into a game, and I am ecstatic to see what updates come out

Wow. Just wow.. My friend recommended this game to me about a week ago and I downloaded it straight away. I’ve already almost achieved victory on Mars already and am excited to unlock Venus! This is my new all-time favourite game! I love that it’s using real science and the graphics are also brilliant. I recommend this game to anyone 12+ that is interested in science or science fiction. Also, although it does have in-app purchases to buy some of the worlds, it’s not necessary to spend ANY real money to play the game as heaps of them are unlocked simply by playing. Every aspect of starting a civilisation in another planet is covered, even culture! It’s the coolest game ever! 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The best fun you had while doing something else. As idle time games go this is a nice way to colonise the solar system and even the broader galaxy. Some enhancements in terms of graphics and options for layouts of individual settlements along with the development of technological differences between the various factions would be an improvement but all up it’s very playable. Would also be nice to have a subscription option or similar as a way of getting rid of the ads…

Amazing. This app is up there with the rare ones you’ll actually enjoy for long periods of time. It’s so intricate and enjoyable that it feels like a PC game, but it runs as smooth as an app should, and won’t take all the time out of your day. Very impressed. One of my favourite things is that you can play the game offline, the next best is that it’s not pay-to-play. The game gives you countless opportunities to earn “Genesis Points” through some ads. Even then, you don’t NEED Genesis Points to “win” the game, so to each their own. Not only that, but all five terrestrial planets are free, and because of the time you put into each planet, I’m going to be more than happy to hand over some cash for the more “alien” planets later on! Super impressed by this. Highly recommended colonising and management game.

Exceptional. How I’ve played the game has been very satisfying. first world was mars on beginner, thought the game was missing things, building a world surely more would go wrong. second world was mercury on moderate, wow the introduction of the biosphere + worked out how the cultural sliders worked after constructing Lagrange academy + extra thing going wrong had me overly enticed. when playing the first world I was a bit curious as to why people would buy other worlds. third world Venus on expert, I understand why other people buy the extra worlds thank you for giving us a few worlds to try out for free. Will definitely make a contribution by buying some worlds

Really engaging. TerraGenesis provides the sort of game that keeps me involved for days without taking up too much of my time. Every few hours, I check in and see what’s happening to my planet. Usually I tweak something, check the short term prognosis and then check in later for the long term result. So far I’ve tamed 2 planets and have had to fork out any cash. Advertising is offered but unobtrusive. You won’t be bothered by ads but if you choose to watch them, TerraGenesis gives you bonus points which can come in handy. Sometimes I find the font sizes on my iPhone X a bit hard to read. But great, great game!

Almost Perfect. This is one of the very few decent science and free games and I love it! The graphics, realism, and complexity that you find here isn’t very common in other games. However, there are a few things that can be improved- it can be annoying sometimes that the projects take a very long course of time. Since the process is so time consuming, it can make you rage and quit a game, when you have almost complete terraforming and you forget about the planet (and very thing that you spend so long on just collapses because you are not watching). I suggest maybe you could add a special sandbox mode, where you don’t have to worry as much and can just have fun messing around with features like the biospheres. Other that, this couldn’t be better. Thank you so much for creating it!

Excellent Execution Design and Awesome Concept. This game is pay to play done right. TerraGenesis is free but players have the choice of purchasing the game’s in-game currency. The concept is fantastic and the game with ads (for those not willing to pay) is done brilliantly. You don’t even have to watch the ads. Every now and again, you’ll be alerted of an “incoming transmission” and you choose whether you want to accept it. TerraGenesis is a challenging game and regular bonuses are awarded for those who choose to watch ads - revenue boosts or ‘Genesis Points’, the in-game purchasable currency.

Good game mechanics. Overall an entertaining sim. Several interesting challenges but due to pattern required for completion, can feel a bit repetitive. Suggest a few items to make it perfect. Visually. For one the planet visualisation is not subtle enough. As a planet changes this should appear a bit more granular. Eg Venus where I would see nothing through the clouds until the pressure was almost perfect close to habitability. The physics. To sustain a habitable planet there would have to be a number of items kept in place. Such as solar sails for mercury amongst other things. The sim implies that once parameters are within tolerance all resources to keep it that way are constant for all planets that is not the case. Lastly introduce magnetic fields and solar storms as hazards to balance. Solar Radiation on mars and strong magnetic fields on Europa are a genuine hazards and would add an interesting dynamic.

Love all of it. Love how simple and delicate this game is. Plus I also love space, stars, planets which is why I installed as soon as I saw it. Im still on a hunt for more space games as there are very few that are free. Pocket Universe is one but there is no goal unlike this awesome game. They have things like local culture and all sorts of interesting stories that build my colonisation. At first, my colony was abandoned as this game is quite straightfoward. Maybe more explanation is needed. If u guys dont know..... population had to increase for pressure to increase. Dont make that mistake. But in the end this game is for learning what basic living survival needs are.

Good in theory. It’s a bit of an add-fest, ok, actually an add streaming enterprise, and unfortunately lacks enchantment. The interface doesn’t do it justice and while functional doesn’t allow for the easy observation of progress. The game does have lots of potential and could be a really fun, enjoyable game that educates. Needs to link planetary bodies into the same system campaign as the free default setting and tone down the adds. Never the less I will play on but not too sure I would invest money to open access to a repeat of the same intellectual puzzle. Maybe the marketing ideas need a serious overhaul so financial gains can be self-sustaining.

Understanding is the key!. Had a little trouble at first! ... searched a few simple tips online... and awaaaaay we go!!! 😁😁😁 One of those games that satisfies the curious world builder in me! .... once you have the cash flow tips running you can make steady progress! Seeing the first few clouds appear over Mars surface was a great confidence boost too ! ... Then settling in to make your world a balanced system is the fun challenge! Had to 'watch' a fair lot of ads for in game boosters along the way.... well I say watch but with the tv in the background I just pay attention to that while they run! ha! ... so long as the revenue helps the developer progress it's cool right?! Fine tuning Mars now.... and looking forward to the next world!

Fantastic Colony Game. I have been playing Terragenesis almost since it came out. I recommended it to a friend and he was put off by the 3-star rating, which I thought was simply criminal! This game has been put together by an incredibly small team, I think it was just one dev at one point. And it is just fantastic. You can colonise all the planets in our solar system for free, but for a pretty low price you can buy like 10 other map packs, with loads of planets each. An expense which is totally worth supporting the devs for. Playing the game is free, so give it a shot. At worst, you dislike it and delete it, no loss. But you just might find your new favourite mobile game, like I did.

Great Gameplay Spoiled by Nagging. Excellent simulation, with great graphics, good game mechanics and high replay value. Could be addictive, but the overall experience is spoilt by nagging messages that pop up (literally) after every minute of play, prompting you to “watch this video”. The game’s immersive atmosphere is broken by this constant, unstoppable nagging, and the experience becomes jarring very quickly. Would gladly pay to have those nagging messages removed from the game altogether, but alas, the author has given us no way to do that. Spending hours and hours in a terraforming simulation, watching your planets slowly change before your eyes, would have been a mesmerising experience I’d enjoy over and over again. Doing it while being promoted to watch a promo video EVERY MINUTE of play is just impossible.

Amazing Game!. I absolutely love this game. It has great graphics and literally endless amounts of worlds to terraform (or preserve, but I like terraforming). I just have one thing to note; with the most recent update, introducing lava planets, the game seems to have forgotten that I completed some worlds. All of the worlds that I had completed before the update introducing faction goals, which were Huanca and the Terrestrial Planets pack, were classified as incomplete. I still have those worlds, and I have independence and my faction goal completed, but it isn’t classified as completed. I can no longer start new games on Venus or Earth, because you need to complete Mars for them, and I cannot start new games in the Trappist-1 system (fortunately, I have started a game in all of them excluding Ostara so I can continue playing those). I would much appreciate it if you could fix this glitch. Overall, I love this game and hope that you keep it amazing. Thank you!

Good game for sci-fi enthusiasts.. I’m a bit of a space buff, and I really like TerraGenesis. Although I generally prefer the sort of game you can lose yourself in - and this is actually a game you just check on every few hours - this is still really clever and well worth playing. Personally I don’t believe humans should engineer other planets without first ensuring the stability and protection of Earth, so I think it’s good to have the choice of whether to terraform or not. And I love the fact that the maps and most of the game mechanics are based on real science. One thing I’d really like to see added is for the surface features of the various worlds to be labelled on their maps, so I can name my cities after them if I want to. Another suggestion is to add grey patches to the surface (similar to the lights at night) as cities grow, so the area looks built-up rather than just a patch of bare ground.

Great. Awesome game - can play in longer intervals or it is good if you want a game to pass a few minutes every day. The menus are quite tidy and helpful, and the tutorial explains things well enough. Would like to see more genetic variations available, and perhaps more ways to unlock other systems through game play (even if it has rather steep conditions). Would also love to see more politics to it all and more people-related chaos. At the moment, there's still room for the game to grow, which is great because I do not know how anybody could not love this game. Give it a go - you definitely won't be disappointed.

Ads. I’m so sick of ads. I understand that people need to make money somehow but what ever happened to 30 second ads? Now you have to watch one for a minute before being forced to wait another 12 seconds then another 12 seconds for a stupid game that you’re never going to buy… and it’s not different every time… it’s the same. Stupid. App. Every. Time. Probably not this particular apps fault but I can’t deal with it and this is where my rant is going. And to ad further frustration, can’t even post this review because the “nicknames” bob and Jim are already taken!🙄

AMAZING 👏👏👏👏👏. I very strongly recommend this game because the graphics are amazing and the fact that you can terraform planets makes you feel like a god Even though there is still some bugs you can still play Overall tilting point (nice name btw) has done an amazing job on TerraGenesis 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One more thing, could you put a storyline into the game That would be amazing Thanks 😉

Awesome game thank you!. It’s so addictive I can’t help it! There’s a bug though - when swiping past bio mass in summary the game crashes. It started happening once my population tipped over certain number, cannot remember exactly, about 100k. Also have a suggestion - allow to choose between facility capacity, ie after upgrading being able to downgrade/choose any of the previous levels. Thanks again, great game with simple yet absorbing mechanics and decent visuals for its kind!

Second time downloaded. I’ve had this game twice now. It’s nice to see in the year or so since I deleted it the first time to conserve space on an older phone with less memory that they haven’t put many pay walls in. This game is great for those wanting a long term play. It isn’t a fast dash but a marathon to complete the goals. Simple in mechanics but great fun and gameplay. Well worth the time if you like the genre.

It can make your dreams come true 😉. This game is free and if you want to be an astronaut or an habitat changer this is the game and it fun also you can make anything happen this is a game changer but it is considered to make your imagination bloom a year six student I might be in year seven when u read this makes me want to be an an astronaut .this is an interesting game and it can make you learn new things

This game is a benchmark for others. Not only is this game stunningly beautiful, but it's fun too. A game which doesn't end quickly but you don't want it to. It also doesn't spoil the game with countless interrupting advertisements, but incorporates them in the game where you can choose to watch them or not, and if you choose to do so, it rewards you with useful resources. Thoroughly a great, thought out and beautiful game!

Was hesitant to try, nearly made a horrible mistake. This game is incredible, just the right amount of complex, it brings flashbacks to my child wonders of space, and it’s free. It may be slightly slow at first, but it’s a game you can play everyone now and then, especially when you’re away or have no internet or just when you’re bored. You decide the fates of these worlds, how are you going to do it?

Possible cross world game play. Either 1-a multiplay of sorts, where you can set up a server (solar system) and you each have to work on a planet, and you can send money, buildings, resources to each other to help 2-make your multiple games able to help each other, like you can set one world to create money mostly, and you can set a certain percentage of that money to a harder planet

What...??. So I might have absolutely f##ked my world in the game but it seems fixable but for some reason every time I try to play it, the game crashes and brings me back to the home screen and I’ve uninstalled it and it’s said "do you want to start of from what you were doing before and I click yes and it does the exact same thing so this is a big problem and can someone tell me what to do about it.. But overall it’s a great game but you dudes who made this have to add more because it gets a little repetitive.

It's okay but not really. Too many ads. It's a bit like a modern dystopian version of Pavlovs dog. Watch a junk ad (every few minutes!) and get rewarded with points! Longer you play, the longer the ads become to qualify. So best not start down the rabbit hole. This is 70% game and 30% advertising. Reasonable game idea but "in-game adv' and execution of game idea could be better. More creative and interesting features could be made. Bit static after a day or two. Seems to have been a bit too much time spent developing this as a vehicle for advertising and consumers buying credits vs actually developing a better game. the earn free GPs doesnt appear to work at all, so you waste all this time on junk ads, junk quizes. Maybe the advertising for this game should be ... "We have detected a transmission from Mars. it's just junk advertising (again)". 🤭. God help us!

Very deep. A very deep game, with scientifically accurate renderings of each planet, as well as accurate planet readings and compositions eg. Venus is a high-pressure planet. The moon’s temperature is actually close to supporting life-forms. Learnt that Jupiter actually has moons, so yeah, cool. Once you unlock the biosphere, there’s so much more to play with. Create organisms and see how they affect the ecosystem. And it was cool to see the actual continents of Mars, once the sea-level rose. These guys take their facts seriously.

Literally the best mobile game I’ve ever found. This game, it’s literally so good that I rate it only second to a game on PC. It doesn’t even have ads that you can’t stop,there is just a pop-up at the top of the screen which doesn’t affect your game in any way. The ads even give you rewards! Plus, the whole game is free, so you might as well try it! Unless you’re some violent and combative idiot, I’m sure you’ll love this game!

I made Mars habitable 😄. Awesome game if you are big on planets and space and living on different planets. I'm even using a calculator to see how long it will take to boost the oxygen but keep pressure low so I don't go overboard. Very simple and you can get addicted very easily and start fretting when your sea levels are rising and you have an outpost about to be submerged. Made Mars habitable and so weird starting out and you got this dusty planet and can't breathe the air and now I have a planet with oceans and greenery galore and 100,000 population.

Lovely game. Look forward to watching it develop further.. This is a great game. Really deep mechanics once you get into it, and proves to be quite a challenging balancing act (much like Starbase Orion, world building games like that). The real science it’s based on makes it a cool speculative experience, and it’s all written in a way that makes sense to non-science types like me. Two things: 1. UI: it would be great if you didn’t have to tap the “Inspect [city name]” from your population menu to get into the city details. Maybe having the option to just tap through on the city name? 2. I bought one of the planet expansion packs. How do you start a new game? Keen to try it out. Can you have multiple games going or is it just one campaign at a time? Anyway, nice work to the developers. This is a refreshing kind of game: peaceful, challenging, atmospheric and educational. Totally get it.

Immersive, intelligent, addictive but can be kept in its place. Agree totally with the positives from the other reviewers. Love the pause function, WHEN I remember to use it! Lol The ability to adjust the effectiveness/output of upgraded systems would certainly help keep things balanced, and I imagine this would be something that could likely be done in real life so it's not like it would affect the 'realness' of the game. (Unlike someone traveling 'back in time' like another reviewer referred to...that hasn't happened to me yet, and hope it doesn't.) Brilliantly researched and constructed game - big props to the designers 👍

This game was made for me. I am a huge nerd when it comes to science, history and possible futures for humanity, so when I got this game it was a dream come true, it was as if I had made the game for myself, while at first it was difficult to get used to the gameplay, it quickly stuck with me and I’ve now played for more than a year, this game is the ultimate game for terraforming science nerds, I just wish all the planets were unlockable, through hard work, because I don’t want to have to pay for all those moons and other purchases, if they were unlockable through gameplay it would be a dream come true

Such potential to be amazing. I would love to give this game 5 stars. I love the atmospheric music, watching tiny changes transform your world. But they hit hard on the in game purchases, and this is where they really screwed it up. Firstly, wouldn’t it nice to be able to communicate with the devs, about any issues, or any suggestions for the game? It would save having to leave a lackluster review. The times events are obviously ‘supposed’ to make things interesting. They are really bad. This game is a game about small changes over time, and they want you to hit all the event goals, for what? There are no unique rewards. The rewards are less than 1% of the money you would invest to reach that tier. And you STILL can’t finish the event if you spend $100 in a days. How the hell does this reward you for investing money in their game. You can get the same rewards directly in the store, and without failure, and for 95% less money. Shame on the money grabbing devs, and the absolutely shocking reward tiers. Are you guys actually playing your own events? Have you calculated the difference between what is costs to play the game, and the direct store? Do you even care? You also claim this game can be played for free. Shouldn’t that mean you can get to tier 1 in your event. Equally, someone handing over 100$ in less than 24 hours. Shouldn’t they be able to reach the top tier goal?

TerraGenesis. When I first started playing this game I thought that it should be linked to NASA because maybe some one out there could find a faster way to make mars habitable I have enjoyed playing this game only thing I think there should be an auto pilot because I can't stay awake the whole time I need to sleep if this were real there would be teams of people running not just one I love the game great fun it's pretty cool to see the world change thank you

Love game but violent ads. I use to not play much but now I played two days in a row so I love the game and also ads are good but when you play them they are violent and kids should not even watch these type of ads but still love the game and please fix violence of ads and I would rate 5 stars. Also I often forget to pause my game sometimes and wait too many days in a row and get worried if I messed up something big and I have uninstalled the app 2 or 3 timed because of this. About to reinstall again

Time traveller keeps destroying my planet. I love this game, but the time traveller story keeps destroying my planet, making it too hard to achieve victory, on the moon, I didn’t have this problem, on the other worlds, but in the space of 10 mins, the time traveller popped up three times, completely destroying the atmosphere on my planet! What’s with this, is this part of the update? If so three times in 10 mins is ridiculous, and all my money gone, how the hell are we supposed to work with that! I don’t like this new feature, if it was only once, well I can work with that, but three times in ten mins and every time I log in, is a bit stupid, don’t make me delete the game!

Crashes and drains battery. The app constantly crashes, especially during ads – and the ads keep getting more numerous and long. Often, if I agree to watch an ad, the app crashes and I don't even get the reward associated. Moreover, this app destroyed my phone's battery. Not only do it drain my battery really quickly, now my battery also drains faster on its own (like it's been worn down by the app). The game is fun, although repetitive over time.

Does not work for IOS. I downloaded the app (I have an iPhone 11) and every time I tried to open the app, my screen went black and returned me to the Home Screen.

Great Game!. I am really loving this game, it is complex enough to be interesting and each game takes long enough to make it worth your while. I love the simple yet intuitive interface and the mechanics are slick.

Not sure if it’s working. So does doing the surveys and such for GP points actaully work? It says I have 3 in progress but I completed what to sent me to do and even more, just says in progress.

Was a great game..... Played it years ago and was awesome. Even bought the planet packs. Now just full of ads you can’t get rid of. Too bad, has such potential.

Sigh. Can't get the ads to work. Opens an overlay with a loading wheel, which eventually closes without doing anything. Tried clearing the cache and reinstalling, neither had any impact. Just managed to lose all of my previous saves and GP after uninstalling, and the Cloud Save on FB didn't seem to do anything for it because it's still gone. 👎 Also can't get my GP and credits from restoring my Pluto purchase to show up on my new Mars file.

Won’t even launch on my ipad. Game won’t even launch. Crashes every time I try to open it

Need 60 FPS. Please unlock frame rate to 60 FPS,30fps is not smooth at all

Almost good. The game is nice but the weekly challenges are absolutely PAY TO WIN and it’s not cheap!

Unique Type of Games. The game is unique, it involves a bit of calculations. You would have the sense of satisfaction the moment the people are able to leave their confinement, and see the life spread. If you are evil, or careless you can sink the cities and the entire planet.

New update with governors sucks. My game won’t get rid of pop ups. The time and date is stuck on February 9,2019. Can’t ply the game anymore. Really sucks cause I really enjoyed the game until now. Please fix!!!!!

Just another ad farming app. Constantly barraged by ads and offers to speed things along if you watch a video or fill out a survey. Disappointing.

Mise à jour. La nouvelle mise à jour est TRÈS TRÈS lente

Surveys seem like scams. I filled out three surveys and got no reward and the questions seem like they are trying to steal info as they ask the same questions more then twice.

Love and frustration. I love the game and how it plays, but it crashes constantly. Even when the ads are presented, which you have the option of declining, but watching the ads can give some great little bonuses. Fix the crashing and this is a 5 star game for me.

Great game, loaded with micro-transactions. Beautiful game. Fun to play but you’ll turn around in circles unless you cave and splurge on micro transactions and in game currency. Deleting off ipad as a result.

Too much money grabbing. I paid 20 bucks for the full game waaaay back in the day, then you release a 10 dollar DLC as an April Fools joke, not to mention the in-app purchases, and then you top it off by throwing in RNG events that randomly set back your progress and all these transmissions every 3 minutes so you can make some ad revenue on top of all that. You are what’s wrong with the gaming industry. EDIT: I see you’ve thrown in a cute little governor lootbox system. How deep are you going to sink? I remember when I first bought all the planets and how good it felt to support a budding indie developer with a promising revenue model. Shows what I know. Move on to a new game already, it hurts to see you turn this gem into a microtransaction cesspool.

It WAS 5 star. Since the latest update the game lags so much when loading. I have to hit things twice or three times to select, really annoying. It’s cute that there’s a “calendar” now, but we don’t need that at all. Probably a few other ‘upgrades’ that weren’t really necessary for game play either. Wish there was a way to lump all the Mine Depleted notifications together too. Otherwise so interesting, love the concept, love the science, I’m STILL trying to win at Mars, but so excited to try other worlds IF the glitching/lagging stops.

Used to be a great game...... I played this back in the day when it was a recent release. Yes, there were ads and in-app purchases, but not so much to detract from the game. Now you’re constantly getting bombarded with requests to watch ads for a minimal in-game benefit. If you do watch the ad sometimes it closes the app and opens up the App Store. And over the years there hasn’t been much added in the way of content. This has turned into a real disappointment.

Very cool. I am obsessed with this game

Update is Downgrade!!. Native resolution on iPhone (8) is too small barely legible. Swiping summary tabs is harder you can’t just flick them across anymore. Focus slider in mining screen is microscopic and even harder to interact with than before. Generally laggier, poorer frame rate. HUD elements seem less responsive, due to perf. Pop ups take noticeable time to appear. Overall huge QOL downgrade. I’d like to revert this ASAP! ———— Cmon guys I know Unity is great and all but you can optimize it better than this!

Used to be better 🙄. Came back to this game after a couple years - it has not aged well. Some of the gameplay functionalities have just stoped working. For example, placing cities and outposts is almost impossible when you can’t zoom in on the map and have to place them with a single touch. Even worse, it’s far more “pay to play” than before.

Wow. If you don’t play this game for like two days your settlers eat all your money and you’re left at 0 and can’t do fudge all. This game blows

Avis. J’aime bien mais l’appli ferme souvent seul sans raison sur mon iPad

Event Issues. I really enjoy this game but the new update added events that last over the weekend. The event ended at midnight in my time zone so I went to bed positive I’d reach the goal since the game runs in the background. Logged on in the morning to find the event ended, my game gone, and no reward even though there was no possible way I couldn’t have completed the goal. Super frustrating to spend all that time and not get what’s achieved. This needs to be fixed.

Awful another farm and wait game. Pay money or be doomed to wait ten years for buildings and currency, it’s the same building game that’s come out the last 10 years

The fall of Rome. This is a very slow paced game, but did anticipation, the waiting for The planets to progress was very fascinating. Yes even five years ago they were in app purchases, but other than the initial purchase price you don’t have to pick a single penny to play it. Then the listed owner changed. I supposed the original developer sold it. And it’s downhill from there on. This “tilting point” company is the third owner and just like the second one is doing everything they could to milk what’s the left of this game.

Pro/Con. This is a great app to pass the time but it has a few problems. If you are not constantly checking and updating, your world gets destroyed and then you have to rebuild it which turns it into an annoying spiral. Thankfully it gives you the option to pause your game but that means you do not do anything and cannot make money or progress. There is no undo button so on a phone if you press the wrong button once, you cannot fix it without screwing up your game. But even though there are some problems this is overall a fun game due to the adventure and strategy. Even educational to a point!

A sleazy game. Full of ads and suggestions to spend more money. It’s impossible to casually play the game without being nagged to drop real cash. It makes the game feel cheap and tacky.

Neat idea and interesting game!. This is a really cool game idea, and I highly recommend trying it out if this looks like the kind of game you're interested it. To the developers, I would recommend considering the following ideas: 1. Aesthetics: Re-approach your graphic design for the game. I think the glowing blue hexes are a bit much to look at, and they make the game feel more complicated than it should. I would highly recommend a more flat/2D design for the buttons and menus. Make buttons more opaque, in a less neon color of blue. I like the hexes, but rounding the corners a bit and spacing the hexes instead of interlocking them will make the game look much more futuristic and aesthetically appealing (which really does make a difference). Also, simply and abstractify all the icons, not to make them unrecognizable, but to provide a bit more minimalistic, futuristic style to the game. 2. Viewing: I like the globe option to view the planet, but I think you should add an option to zoom in more, and see the cities and outposts in visual representation, not just an icon on a map or light on the dark side of a planet. 3. Story: Either the Victory Goals and Culture Points altogether, and make the game an indefinite empire-building one, or add more of a storyline to it. Assign the player an avatar and more active, physical role in the game, not just as some disconnected viewer of the planet. 4. Factions: There's not a huge list of factions to choose from. You could possibly add an option to create one's own faction, by designing a simple logo with a few choices in shapes and color. Let the player decide how to assess policies such as plutocracy vs. democracy, etc, instead of assigning this with the faction. Also, in gameplay, add more opportunities for the player to influence policies being defined (like the choices to add more democracy into the system, etc), and go into more detail on what the policies really are. What acts am I agreeing to, to add more democracy to my planet? What exactly is being changed? 5. Simplification: Don't necessarily simply the gameplay, but I think you should clean up the menus a bit. In Beginner Mode, there's still the menus for Satellites and Biospheres, even if I'm not involved in those. I think you should take away unnecessary buttons like these examples, as they make the game look a lot more confusing than it really is. 6. Tutorials: Explain what each element of the terraforming process is to be beginner players in their first game. Also give them more information on research, governors, and facilities. 7. Research: Include a visual representation of the Lab on the planet surface, and reorganize the options for research into more of a grid or web, instead of a list. Also add the option to buy another Lab (or, better yet, add another "research slot" to the Lab). Permanently. Bought with Credits. No 24-hour-lab-for-75-GP. 8. Currencies: I would redesign the credits icon and concept. Money really just shouldn't be blue tokens/coins. Make Credits a concept that stands as a crypto-currency. Also, redesign Genesis Points. Rename them something a bit more realistic/relevant to the scenario, and give them a new look. The orb just looks a bit fantastical, not in a good way. 9. Transmissions: I think the idea to incorporate ads as "incoming transmissions" is brilliant, but you should move the banner button that comes down for them to the side, so as not to block to planet name and date. 10. Earth: Add more connection to Earth. Include systems of trade with the home planet, influence and politics, and other factors that relate to Earth while a new planet is being colonized. Give the player more to the storyline and history of Earth and how this scenario came to be.

Ads. Maybe a good game - I will never find out. Ads come in ever minute in the form or “incoming transmissions”. Just terrible :/

unplayable. i can’t even get the game to load or start up. i get a black screen then sent back to the home page

Almost a homerun. Not bad but definitely requires you to watch a tonne of adds. Basically beat mars in 4 days.

Disappointed. I saw a pretty awesome trailer on you tube for this and was excited... but then oh so disappointed that it’s just another build this and that game and spend points/credit to “hurry” things up. It’s too bad because it seems like some effort was made to make a polished presentation, but seriously these freemium games need to be relegated to the archives of video game history.

Nice, but a few problems. While playing on one of the Trappist 1 planets, I had Hucana Paused. It’s was a Paradise there. Until when I unpaused it. It made like half of my ecosystem extinct due to oxygen! WHAT?! THE FRICKIN GAME WAS PAUSED THE WHOLE TIME!! HOW WAS THAT POSSIBLE!? WHAT DID I DO TO GET PUNISHED? Oh wait... was it the time traveler effect? THAT WAS BECAUSE I MOVED TO A DIFFERENT PLACE WITH A DIFFERENT TIME ZONE YOU MAGGOT!

Could be a good game. Can spend hours working on a planet only for it suddenly to become inhabitable with no way to fix it. So frustrating.

Don’t waste time here. After the very first tutorial the game spends the next as long as I could deal with it being nothing but ads. Don’t waste your time

This is the only one of its kind. When I was hooked on planetary colonization I could not find a single game on that topic, but then I found TerraGenesis. I loved it and still do to this day. I think you should add a mode so you can see your cities up close and look at the buildings that you put there. Also I want for the up close city mode, that there is a grid and you can place your buildings on the grid and move them around so it looks nice and organized. Love the game and would enjoy it more if one of those features were added👍.

Fun but don’t download the new version!. I’ve had fun with the game until a new version cane out. The interface letters are so small I can’t read and the buttons are less sensitive. AVOID THE UPDATE!!!!

Boring and full of ads. After a tutorial that takes less than 5 minutes, the next action you take takes an hour to complete, while you are bombarded with ads and prompts for microtransactions. So if you’re interested in a game that you start and then immediately put away, this might be for you.

Disappointed. I was really enjoying this game and had invested a good amount of time into it and now it just crashes every time I try to open it. Really sucks losing all that time and energy. :(

Bug still there. Thank you for continuing to update your fantastic game. Unfortunately, my game still crashes very often and I am on an iPhone XR.

Too many pop up ads.. Can’t play a game anymore without pop up ads. Deleted it after 2 minutes.

Review. The game is fun but a bit time consuming.i really like watching my planets evolve! I would rate it higher but I’ve had issues of receiving my genesis and revenue points from the boosts or touching on the boosts they don’t show up to access them. It’s a great game otherwise

Phenominal game, but biospheres make your planet unstable. I would rate this game a full five stars, but when you have beaten a planet and want to watch it grow... good luck. Biospheres will randomly give you massive oxygen variation and a planet that was balanced goes toxic over night killing all life and resetting your population to habs. If the plant and animal oxygen could be balanced at SOME point so you can zero the growth and nit need to worry about changes that would jump this game to five stars.

Always crash on ipad pro 2020 and suggestions. I suggest to add mortality rate and remove the ugly lights on transport networks because its unrealistic and the mine water thingy happens too much often and exagerrated amount of water

Good game. The game is good but you have to wait alot for things

Planet Generation Problem. Still not working, the generator is crap now. Please fix this, My best part of the game is now not working. Planets keep regenerating and it’s annoying and a waste of my money.

Game crashes constantly. Enjoyable game when it works. Playing on iPad. Game crashes constantly. Given up on it after not being able to load the game up. Every time I open it up the game crashes. What a waste of money.

Boring. It’s just not fun, there should be more interactive options, and a much better UI

Great Passtime!. No, im not a bot, lol. My name is KJ (dont wanna leave real name), and this game was something I deleted twice because I never got into it, but now that I have a tighter schedule and am older, the game is extremely enjoyable! As someone who particularly enjoys conceptual terraforming, and aero-space, this game is an amazing fit for me. The game is, of course, not made for those who like a very fast playstyle, but just being able to hop on during breaks and when your bored is fun. Watch a few spongebob ads for extra boosts and points, and your all set for a few hours, lol! Seriously though, atleast TRY the game out. Give it a few days, and if you don’t like it, delete it. But it is 100% not even close to Pay-to-Win or anything, and even plants trees for so many carbon impact points collected! TL;DR the game a chance, you might enjoy it more than you predicted!

My favorite mobile game. I love civilization building games, yet this one is very different. While it is important to build your cities and manage them, there is a huge scientific factor in it. It can make the game very frustrating and difficult but its so satisfying seeing your fully terraformed planet. Balancing your levels of pressure, oxygen, water, and having to maintain an economy on top of it all is very impressive to incorporate in a mobile game, and it may seem overbearing but it's so fun to have control over all of these factors of your planets. I will warn you, the game progresses even when it is closed. So that facility you have producing hundreds of units of water can possibly make you come back to the game and all of your cities and outposts are underwater. I'd recommend disabling some facilities when the scales start to tip or if you know you'll be away from the game for a long time.

Great for Sci-fi lovers. I normally don't care for video games; however, TerraGenesis is beautiful. I recommend it for anyone who has dreamt of living in a science fiction world. The designers incorporated cultural, scientific, political, social, and financial aspects so that it feels as though you are really starting a colony. I especially love how they made up different research areas to fix the environmental problems, like a drill to release heat from inside the planet. The controls are complex but clear and organized, unlike many strategy games which show a confusing array of buildings. You don't look at your actual colony much, but it gives stats to show how it's doing. There are multiple levels of difficulty and you can do a lot without paying real money. The game proceeds when you're not around. It's more of a fifteen minutes a day style instead of continuous play for several hours, great for busy people. Download it!

Great Game, but pls read. I’ve written two reviews about how great this game is before, but this time I want to put in one suggestion that would make terraforming happen much faster and more efficiently. The place on your planet where you can fast forward your stats is great for checking when to pause your game or turn off terraforming machines so that your planet’s stats don’t get out of control. I always use it to check how many hours there are before I need to pause my game so the stats don’t go haywire, but I have a good suggestion for that aspect. For instance, if the oxygen on your planet will reach 210 ppm in 9 hours, it would be extremely useful for the gamer to make the game pause automatically after 9 hours so the oxygen levels don’t get too high or low. You could put this feature in the place where you fast forward your stats, perhaps. Great game! Keep up the great work!

It’s good. It’s the first well developed game in this genre that I’ve came across on a mobile platform. I also think that an expanded version of the game could be developed for PC and console. I’m not sure how well it would be received on console platforms, but I’m positive that it would fair well on the PC gaming market. There are plenty of consumers who would love a game like this. Especially considering that this game has the potential to include a lot more elements and mechanics in the future. This game could be so much more on a larger more powerful platform. This game has the potential to become more than a mobile game about colonizing and terraforming planets. It could become a space sandbox game based on scientific principles, similar to Other games, but one that includes a full in depth look at hypothetical planet colonization that I have yet to see even in well made and received space sandbox game. This game and the company behind it can and probably will do great things with this game in the future.

Terraformer’s dream. This game is incredible. I’ve been playing for months, and I have enjoyed every second of it. The game does require a good amount of patience, because terraforming and colonization doesn’t happen overnight, but that works for me because I don’t want to be too hands on since I have a busy daily life, and I have a good amount of patience. Sometimes it’s trial and error, and I love that, because you get to learn how to better manage your planets. Sometimes you accidentally kill 23 billion people on Mars due to ecology collapse, so there is enough hand on stuff to ensure that you remain hooked to the game so that you don’t ruin progress. Worse case scenario there is always a redo. I would love to see actual objects on the planets like flying ships and even spaceports once they are built, but that’s just a personal preference and a nitpick. Overall, if you want to colonize and terraform the solar system and beyond, this is the game for you my friend.

Wow.. I saw an ad for this app on Facebook, and I'm a big fan of space and management games, so it seemed worth checking out. I did not expect it to be as good as it is. I rarely leave reviews, but TerraGenesis deserves one. There's something fundamentally rewarding about seeing the planet change realistically before your eyes as it reacts to the gradual changes you make to its atmosphere. The game is balanced in such a way that you have to be clever and discerning in order to get what you want, but it's never frustrating, and it can be played at any pace. It's also not pay-to-play like so many other apps are. The premium currency is offered almost constantly in exchange for watching a short video, and you can't but anything with them that you couldn't get otherwise— they simply reduce waiting times. Overall it's a very fun, rewarding, and relaxing game with no real hitches. I strongly recommend it to anyone vaguely interested.

Fun premise, poor execution…. I was totally excited to try this game, only to be let down and completely frustrated with it. The incoming messages are buggy and only gave the appropriate bonuses about 1/2 the time and I would frequently come back after leaving the game going in the background and get drastically different incomes, with same buffs going and same durations between accessing the game. The more frustrating thing was the sheer amount of randomly generated negative progress. In the span of a day I had 4 structures blown up, 3 destroyed by meteors (because I didn’t have the funds to deflect d/t rebuilding), and lost one of my original cities due to flooding. This doesn’t include the issues with mining and how I Goulding find any good veins in any of my sites. It’s frustrating that as you get closer and closer to success the difficultly increases exponentially (was within 40% of independence on Mars). I greatly enjoyed the premise, the music was calm and relaxing and the visuals of the planets were stunning, but I’ve deleted the app and am uncertain if I would recommend it or try it again.

Stinkin fun. It’s basically a puzzle game, with each planet being a different puzzle. It forces you to make some tough choices and to actually think about what you’re doing—that’s really nice, after playing a million brainless zombie games that are all about clicking something to collect your resources every three hours. Very fun, very immersive, I’d recommend it to anyone who loves strategy. Props to the dev—great work! I only have two suggestions: —If there were some sort of master control panel screen for the stats, the colonies, and the satellites, which listed all the stuff going on with each category and was clickable so I could quickly go to each building, that would save some navigation. For example, when I clicked on Colonies, I would see a full list of every colony and outpost with its buildings, and I could click on a colony to see more detail of that colony, or a building to quickly go to the building. —I use the biospheres on every world I make just for fun, but if they had more of an impact on the endgame progression of the world, that would give them a little bit more oomph. Right now we don’t even have to make aquatic species—they don’t really do anything, and terrestrial plants only serve to free the humans from the hab domes. Other than that, the biospheres don’t serve much practical purpose. Great work, dev team! Wonderful game.

Great for planetology geeks; rewards patience. I am only about halfway through the Mars beginner module but I’m enjoying learning about the mechanics of the game. I’m a non-gamer but I enjoy games on long plane flights. The best parts: Watching Mars slowly green up as I put in an atmosphere, oxygen, and water. The graphics and music are cinema level. I also enjoy the occasional events reported from the cities I’ve created, such as cultural achievements or political intrigue. My capital city wound up with a Bolivian-Salvadoran populace, and a minor city wound up with a Buddhist culture with a simple but spicy regional cuisine. If you like games with lots of immediate action (e.g. Risk) this isn’t the game to scratch that particular itch. As a gardener I understand the “set up your conditions, then... wait...” for the delayed gratification of seeing success blossom (or wince when it doesn’t come together, and try again.) You can speed up the pace for immediate gratification, but it will cost you $. I’d recommend this game esp. for earth science fans.

Great Game with some flaws. This game is pretty cool due to the technologies involved and the fact that you can watch an uninhabitable planet slowly transform with life. However, I don’t think I will be paying for expansions or the in game currency due to the fact that it tends to get boring after you have figured out the game. Every aspect of terraforming has the same solution: construct a facility, wait, generate mining revenue while you wait. Once your planet is habitable it’s a simple matter of growing your population to generate enough culture points to gain independence. The random events don’t really provide more entertainment because your only options are OK, Accept, or Decline. There is no SIMS-like aspect to see or manage your people. Not enough depth in the game to warrant going past the free portion. Great concept and worth playing at least once. It’s up to you on whether it holds your interest enough to pay for more planets. I wish the team the best and hope they get a chance to improve on this concept.

100% The Best. I heard about this game from my sister, and being interested in space and all, I downloaded it. I was blown away. This is the best iPhone space game I’ve ever seen, and probably even better than computer games. This game uses real NASA science to build what we have now, TerraGenesis. You can even colonize fictional planets! I hope soon this’ll become the hit game, because it really is. It even helps you learn about what’s needed to make the perfect planet! And although there are in-app purchases, it’s really cheap especially if you’re looking to colonize one of the gas giants or fictional planets, or even moons! And with GP (Genesis Points) you can even buy credits (the money) with them! And not only is the game amazing, the icon for it indeed is a work of art. Most people look past that, and focus only on the gameplay. But they truly worked hard on this icon from how it looks. Anyways, you definitely should download TerraGenesis. You’ll love it too, especially if you love space!

Great, but just one gripe.... So I think this game is fantastic. It has one of the most ridiculously fair monetization designs I’ve seen in a mobile game. The gameplay is deep without being complicated, and gradually seeing the results of your terraforming is always satisfying. There are a few quality of life features that would be nice - mainly a way to more quickly move between your graphs and colonies for those fine-tuning adjustments you’ll need to make towards the endgame (or even consolidating it to one screen) but other than that the game is great as-is. HOWEVER. The flooded mine event is incredibly user unfriendly. One simple mis-click can easily flood a ton of your colonies, resulting in hours of lost progress. If it’s possible for the player to lose so much progress with one click, the game should give you an extra warning if that’s going to be the case. And if it’s not possible for the game to check if your colonies are going to be flooded after clicking “release the water,” I would suggest just removing the event entirely. Yes, I’d finally gotten Earth to a nice spot with tons of coral reefs. It’s lucky I’d already lowered the sea level a bit just in case something like that happened, but it still didn’t stop the loss of one or two large colonies. Other than that nitpick, fantastic game. Easily recommended, just look out for events like that because as is the game lacks warnings for such cataclysmic events. Would easily be 5 stars otherwise.

Surprisingly good!. This game is surprisingly good. It's extremely in depth and detailed for being free, and terraforming is such an interesting topic that isn't done much. It's really cool to see it being done so well in this game. Like I said, the detail in this game is astounding. All the thought and effort that went into making every little thing as accurate and realistic as possible really shows. From meteors increasing planetary pressure, to living quarters giving off water and oxygen, this game does realism very well. I also love the detail put into letting you see your progress with planets changing and colonies growing. Very cool. Getting good at this game takes time and effort but it's worth it to see how big of an impact you made one your planet. The dev is really good too. I encountered a glitch with credits and emailed him and he replied same-day and even got a patch out the next day. Pretty impressive. What's even more cool is that this game is completely made by one guy, which makes everything about it that much more awesome. Great game.

Takes a little to long :/. This game is really good :). But the fact that you lose money by doing nothing makes it hard and takes a lot of time. I also wish that there was like a loan button that way you can use that money to help your planet grow. I would give this a 5 but because of the fact that you lose more money then you make is annoying. Also I like that this dev team is not all about money and they put a lot of time and effort in to this game. They don’t just leave it alone like so devs. I saw this game and I was like :O that looks fun! I hope there is not a lot of ads. And there wasn’t I also like that you can chose to watch ads but in return you get like boosts and GP. Okay now to the stuff I don’t like. I don’t like that it takes years to make credits I also don’t like how in the transoms that you can nearly get any GP. You guys should add more ways to get GP. Please add some off this stuff. Thank you for reading this :D. I am enjoying the game besides this stuff.

Best game for iPhone!. This game is the very best game for iPhone! I have played many games that look cool, but end up being generic games with no “meat” and most of them are pay-to-win. This game however, is a diamond in the rough. I love space and science, and if you do too, this game is definitely for you! The science in this game isn’t out of the realm of possibility, and the graphics in this game are amazing. The one “negative” thing is that it is really addicting. I find myself checking the game throughout the day to make sure my colonies are ok. There are features that you can pay for, like other planets to colonize and terraform. But there are about 5 or 6 planets you can colonize and terraform WITHOUT paying. That’s like, months of gameplay. I honestly think I am going to buy all the planets, which I NEVER do with other games. This game is amazing, and I really want to thank the people who made this for making the best game for iPhone, PERIOD.

Perkins- game review. If you want something better than those facebook games that take for ever to build a castle or whatever but still like the idea of strategy and creativity and overall uniqueness that constructing your own world then this is the game to get. The developer has done a fantastic job at everything user friendly changing the way the planet looks as you are making it more habitable... it's just so amazing that satisfaction you get when the message comes up on your screen that says, "congratulations first plant life to Emerge on mars", (or something of that nature. (pun intended)). Makes you feel like a true astronaut/leader/god perhaps. Starts off slow-ish but before you know it you'll have more money then you know what to do with. Very fun and time is all relative so play alittle then go learn some math and engineering so you can do this but in real life. Have fun with the game and never limit your imagination and your abilities... and engineering classes are lit af brah.

Love this game. This game is phenomenal! I love the interface and how it is based off of real science. The game has beautiful graphics and an amazing soundtrack. I love how you can have multiple games going at once, and there are an enormous amount of possibilities. It is simply amazing. You actually have to think and apply knowledge to succeed at this game. I would give it five stars but there are some things I would love to see changed or improved on. The first one being when you’re changing planets. I don’t like how you have to go all the way back to the title screen. The game does not require much attention, so I am working on multiple planets at once and it can be a pain to go through all of the steps to change planets. The other thing is a suggestion for the future. I would love to see it where we could actually see how are cities look and the people in them. Like when you’re zooming into the planet, if you could zoom into like a google maps street view. That would be pretty amazing.

Pay to win or not at all.. Cool idea but after seeing what the algorithm of the game does to force you to pay, I read some other reviews and deleted. I would pay to play but this could get very expensive as I saw early. You are given credits to start with. Then you mine to earn more credits or you can purchase more credits with real cash money. No problem, however, I saw the cost of diverting ‘random’ meteors, for example, increase from near nothing to just over the amount of credits that I had while just happening to target my most advanced structures. I doubled my credits to help ensure that I wouldn’t lose a major structure again. Boom, out of all the surface area of the entire planet, another meteor was headed directly toward my most advanced structure again and the cost to divert was yet again just above my newly doubled amount of credits. Lol They basically tell you to let it demolish your major structures if you don’t have enough credits or pony up real cash dollars in the shake down to save it. Some had it much worse than me. Just charge for the game, don’t be deceptive. It totally takes you out of the world of the game.

What a mobile game should be!. Since I was very young, I have loved watching the night sky and thinking about all the possibilities of existing on another planet, like something from The Jetsons! This app made me, in a way, live out my childhood fantasies and see what it would be like to start a civilization on another world! Having to be meticulous and precise with the levels is a lot of fun for the right person, and an entertaining way to burn some time while also feeling the pride of creating life in an otherwise inhospitable place. This game does what other games of today don’t - creates a challenging experience for players while also maintaining very fulfilling results that anyone would feel proud of! Looking at a full, thriving planet that was once barren is a very rewarding experience and, while it is still something very small in the grand scheme of life, humbling and definitely worth the time you put into it!

Gal. Great game. Recommend it to anyone. Only thing that bothers me is that the whole planet is very uniformed. When plants start growing on mars its all green. You don’t get nice rainforests near the equator and desserts to the north and south of them. And its a shame there aren’t ice caps near the poles... it’s true to all the planets ant moons in the game including earth(which you really don’t need to guess how it looks). I know people want to see the colonies in detail but this is far more urgent to fix. It just breaks the whole illusion of this is how the planet looks like after you have terraformed it when the South Pole is covered with grass the same as the equator is. If a developer see this please fix this and maybe also make temperature variations depending on where your colony is located so the geographical location of it will also play a factor in the game. Other than that the game is great so even though it has much room for improvement it is good enough as it is to get a 5-star in my opinion.

I'm a little bit amazed. I'm a lot a bit amazed at the game. It's really incredible. Extremely well done. I'm a little bit amazed at how few people have left reviews, or seem to be playing it. I feel like everyone should play this game. It's a bit of a slow progress kind of game, but that's fine when you're looking for something that won't get boring in two days. This game is challenging and intriguing, and has kept me occupied for quite some time now. I'm really impressed with the creators! I also LOVE the fact that the ads give you a percent of your current money, because if you manage your money well, you can actually make an absolute fortune off of it, and it's wonderful for game progress. It just takes a smidge of patience. Basically, there would be no point in watching the ads once you had a bit of money if there was a set amount, but the way it's set up right now, it's always worth it. Please keep that going.

Great Game! Lots of Replay Value. This game is a lot of fun. If you’re into strategy and colonization types of games, you’ll enjoy this one. In TerraGenesis, you pick a planet from our solar system (or others via dlc) and try to colonize it. There are many factors you need to adjust and consider when colonizing, including oxygen, water, temperature, biomass and pressure, among others. The colonists will kind of develop naturally, with scientists and artists making new discoveries to make your colony unique. It really gives the game personality. Be aware that this is a loooong term game. The point is to spend a long time developing the planet and making it habitable. This isn’t a game for someone to pick up and play; there is definitely a learning curve to this game. Once you start figuring out the intricacies, it really envelops you and makes you want to play more. The game will offer you “transmissions” or optional ads you can view. The game does this beautifully by offering you the option to look at the ads. In fact, it’s in your best interest as the game will award you valuable and rare “Genesis points” that can be used to fine tune how the colony operates: do you want to value ecology or economy? For example. Overall, this is a very fun game. I am only on the beginner difficulty and it is still very in depth and fun to play. I’m excited to “win” my first planet and move on to another planet and higher difficulty. Highly recommend!

Great game but won’t let me start correctly. I have been playing this game for a while but a few months ago I deleted the game because I needed space on my phone. Now that I have a new phone I have re-downloaded it but now all of the tutorial and settings stuff won’t show up anymore that I knew were there first time I played it. It will also auto assign me the faction daughters of Gaia I think and just automatically start a new game with that faction after pressing agree on the terms of service even though in all of the ads for this game it says you can choose your own faction/group at the very beginning. Because of it not letting me start a new game correctly it won’t let me use the biospheres. I don’t know if this is a bug in the system or something like that but it keeps on happening even when I delete it and re download the game so if someone can somehow explain how to do something that will keep this from happening that would be great.

Been playing for years off and on. The only thing i cant stand about this game is how long everything takes to either build, upgrade, or research. Progressing through a game takes forever and i get bored so quickly of it. Ive had the paid version for two or three years now and go through phases of playing it for awhile then stopping but generally i dont get much done because they game gets so boring so quickly having to wait for everything to load. I do appreciate the designers for how in depth the game is and love the concept, just dont like all the waiting around the game has. Also, i used all my early culture points promoting knowledge and then the game updated or something idk, but i now can no longer put culture toward knowledge and when i started a new game on the next planet it said due to the company or whatever i was playing as i couldn't get knowledge. Like thats fine i guess but i wasted like six culture points on knowledge in my first planet and didnt get them back despite it resetting to 0% and not allowing me to select knowledge anymore.

I love the game but could be better. I love this game why can’t you terraform gas giants? It is possible so we need to add a gas giant set which I immediately would get those planets since I have the all playable worlds pack XD! You should also have the Proxima system since it’s the nearest star to the sun but Proxima Centauri B is the easiest because it’s a super earth. By the way I think we should add a unique planet section with planets and moons with different mechanics such Enceladus which should have underwater versions of structures and even city’s because it should have a goal to make an underwater civilization! We should also make a chaotic planet section with planets in terrible condition like, a planet with no water at all and has a massive water loss plus no frozen water or vaporized water. OR MAYBE EVEN A PLANET WITH TOO MUCH PLANT LIFE WHERE AREAS WITH TOO MANY PLANT BEING BRIGHT GREEN WHERE YOU CANT PLACE THINGS But I love the game so much!!!!💧💧💵💰⛏🌄🌅🗾🏝🗺☘️🍀☄️🌕🌖🌗🌔🌘🌑🌒🌓🌏🌍🌎🌏🐈

Consistent bug with income generation. I want to like this game. The nerd in me loves, the engineer thinks it is a novel concept but the realist says this is crap. After over a week of carefully observing my attempt to terraform Venus and slowly lower pressure I am done. I have nearly consistently maintained a positive income and every time I log in after a few hours I watch that income disappear. I have documented my timers on my mines, ensured positive net income PRIOR to any boosts and come back to -2,000,000 or some other crap. The game worked perfectly through the tutorial and it took a bit to get into expecting the changes in income from building but the monetary changes were inconsistent ... having the net positive to overcome the mine expiring, building being completed and coming back to a still net positive income and watching all my credits disappear time after time has clearly shown there is some obsessive need to get me to buy more GP. And before you imply I have attempted to cheat, hold your tongue ... I am a gamer. Losing is just as much a part of it as winning but being cheated by the system is never fun. So before you install this make sure you are ready to pay attention to whether you are being fleeced for money or not

Seems like a good game. This game seems fun but I don’t really know because I can’t really play the game, it is mostly just waiting for things to finish and I hate these types of games, they don’t make sense to me. Why they don’t make sense is why would app developers want people to play their game less, why do app developers put waiting times for building, it just makes people play the game less and stuff like that kills a player base faster than any other type of genre. I understand that it is because then they can add gems and make money but honestly who even buys those very often, they don’t seem like a profitable way to make money off a game. It is nice that I haven’t encountered a forced ad in the 30+ minutes of game play that I did play. But if it were me I would rather pay 5 or 10 dollars for a game like this and just be able to play it freely without these waiting times and I bet a lot of other people would be happy with that as well. This game concept seems like something I would like but I just can’t like it because the game is encouraging you to quit playing constantly and I might as well.

Just starting, and later. Very strategic, relentless ads for Genesis Points and Production Upgrades, but by far less annoying than other apps I’ve seen. Kind of early, but a good balancing act exercise so far. Like it. *Update 1 after a week or so* Lol, the offers to watch a video for rewards are exactly synchronized with lots of TV channels. Just like the Clear Channel radio stations all go on commercial simultaneously... *Much later update* they came out with an update a few months ago that broke a bunch of stuff, but then came out with bug fixes to restore it relatively quickly. After that, gameplay was somewhat laggy, so it is easy to push buttons twice because they take so long to respond. Still love it overall, good work. The newest update just came out, claiming hundreds of bug and performance fixes, will see if they addressed the lag issues. Like another review I read, I felt this game is cool enough that I needed to support them, so I bought the planet unlock package. I need to read their reddit pages now to learn more details of the biosphere and species engineering mode. The ads thing is not that bad, since you have the option whether you choose to watch them or not, no longer unhappy about that. PS, I just logged back in after the update, and the lag issue appears to be better. However, the planet I was working on got broken a bit, I had way over pressure and over O2, and now they are both zeroed, oh well, stuff happens...

Request for the future. This game is probably my favorite game on mobile because of all the different mechanics, the graphics, and the ad free environment if you choose to decline the adds. There is something missing though. Whenever a problem pops up like an incoming asteroid it is easily diverted quickly and whenever there is a person needed to be assassinated you just pay a little money and it’s gone. The problems need to be more challenging and there need to be more problems. This gives the player more adrenaline and excitement. I’m not saying to inject countless and overly difficult problems into the game but just add some different scenarios and make them slightly more difficult. In my opinion this will make the game much more fun and engaging. Suggestions for problems and scenarios: Volcano, landslide, sink pit, storm, earthquake, political disputes, riots if you don’t assassinate sometimes, animal hazard for biosphere.

Great game, a fascinating and in depth idea. Very involved game, resource maintenance at its best, it’s fun to puzzle out the best balance of your technology. The free version is still very engrossing! The paid planet options also look fantastic! I’m still on beginner and it is challenging but not overwhelming, I can’t wait to get better and enjoy the more advanced features. I love that you can see the development of the planet as you go, as well as the fun (and sometimes not!) events that may affect each city. I do appreciate the optional boost options from ads, they are not necessary at all but do make your game move a bit quicker if you decide to watch them (always short). Watch a few in a row and bank hours of 200% increase in culture and credit before bed, and the next day you will have more to work with! I’m not always one for reviews but this game deserves five stars, and I (and my husband) are seriously considering buying the other planet packs. Awesome job you guys!

Fun app. Lots of bugs. I enjoyed the free version of the app but there are so many bugs I would not purchase an expansion. The words on the culture tab go over each other unless you have the smaller viewing setting. The planet stops spinning on the population tab. All of the goals are for in their tabs I.e. water, pressure, temperature... I have achieved independence and habitability on all planets but earth is still locked. Elevations are hard to tell. There is no legend and there is little color difference. I have a continuous priority to increase my pressure when I have completed the world and am at paradise. You can not see the cities on the planet unless it is light and the planet often disappears when looking at it. When you are scrolling over the planet it should not become night because you can not see it. I enjoyed the game despite the many bugs. I would love to play earth but it is still locked. Update: more bugs. You can not downgrade equipment if you accepted the engineer leaving it up to level X and if something is downgraded from X you can not do anything with that either.

Real fun. But could use a bit of work. I wish it was easier to get from the stats screen TO the colonies. Usually I am looking at the stats and want to go right to the colony where I'm producing too much or to little of a resource. It'd be great if clicking on the thing in the stats screen just took me RIGHT to that colony. It is a bit confusing at first to play and then once you get it it is pretty fun. It's a nice game to let run in the background and check up on every hour or so to make sure all your colonists didn't just die because of something you did. Also do not like the miner mini game. It seems very random. Also I will hover over a spot with the crosshairs for a rare material and there is a rare material IJ the crosshairs and around the map and then I will just watch it disappears. I will then move the crosshairs around and it will act like there was never any of the material there at all. Not sure if that got fixed in the patch but it's SUPER annoying

So Spectacular!. This game is beyond wonderful and now they’re including a whole new sets of things that I have been begging for and praying for in my little heart!! Oh Lord, I couldn’t be any happier with his game!! There are so many thing I can try and then I could as if a flip of a switch ruin everything that I’ve worked for to keep me humble about my worlds and people even I have pride in them!! I can’t wait for his newest update that’s coming up pretty soon!! I have been with the game since it’s very very early days on the mobile and it’s changed soooo much so than you developers soooo much!! You deserve so much love and many blessings too!! I can’t wait to experience the new update!! I do have one thing though if I may...my 18 year old mind would like it if you make it so I can play my music while playing it because I want to listen to 1960s music and feel like an astronaut from those comics while terra forming other planets lol!! Thank you soooo much!! -Antoni!!

The best free game I’ve ever played. This game is absolutely marvelous. It’s the best game I’ve ever played on mobile. Games like these are my favorite and the developers have a perfect balance of ads and gameplay Ads aren’t even forced, you only watch ads if you want free gp to instantly finish construction or research and you usually get 1-3 gp And one hour costs 1 gp from my experience. Honestly, this game is better than I can ever explain I love this ~Edit after about a week The game is okay, it gets really tedious and silly near the end because you have to get every single digit at 0 So your atmosphere doesn’t get to pressurized, or thin Or if everything floods over or goes dry Or if there’s too much oxygen One night before I went to bed, I accidentally left my water growing at like 40 or something a minute And woke up 6 hours later and everything on mars was flooded and basically killed the game And you don’t get a refund if it happens... I kinda feel bad for spending near 40 dollars on this game It seems like a great deal when you buy 500 or so GP But you spend it so fast and if something goes wrong, or the game decides to screw you over You lost your money, you don’t get GP refunded or anything and then you lose your mining revenue, or money revenue in general and go bankrupt and it’s essentially game over unless you use more real life money to buy yourself out of bankruptcy

Make your own Planet. This app is basically that. You kind of make your own planet of you don’t start out with the easy to use basic... which is Mars. I love getting on and seeing what and how my little planet is doing. It’s a really fun and easy game to play. No need to pay for anything... UNLESS you want to try a different planet. When I first started I wanted to do Earth because you know... why not? But it cost $0.99 sooo I said I can do Mars. My Mars will not turn out like the Doctor Who Mars okay! No weird water that kills precious people. Anyways I got distracted. This is a great idle game. You get on for a little bit make sure things kind of stay in order as it continues to grow into a habitable planet, now even though you get off it still runs. It’s “growing” in your pocket as you go through out your day so you do have to check back every once in a while but you don’t have to be on top of it. The graphics are great and if you’re into scientific stuff. You’ll really enjoy this game.

Turn Mars Green. This game is a refreshing treat, something different and thoughtfully made. In an ocean of apps that are just reskinned clones of the same 2 or 3 games, TerraGenesis stands out. The ads aren’t intrusive, and it’s entirely possible to play without them, but if you do choose to view an ad you always get a useful reward for doing so. The semi-realistic art style is appealing and tasteful. Interfaces are clean. Science fiction elements give the player world-altering tools explained without straining believability. Nothing about the game feels like it’s pandering or belittling to the player. The terraforming system lets you progress directly by building machines and structures, and indirectly over time as the things you build gradually change the environment. In short, enjoyable management sim when you want something different from Weirdly Sexualized Low Budget Waiting Simulator and Advertisement Viewer: Reloaded.

Mesmerizing. Came across this nice indie app. I must say I was a little confused about the premise and how to do things from the tutorial. But trying it out I was hooked. If you like strategy and sims this is a great app. So far I put in a few hours. This app will take weeks to probably colonize a planet so be aware. It is free to play and isn't a cash grab as far as I can tell. There are ads but they are optional however each click to view gives you huge benefits so better to click. Ad options come quickly so the more you use it the faster you build your planet if you don't mind 30 seconds for hours of 200% boosts. Give it a try especially since it's free and a great app. UPDATE: After playing for a week I was able to terraform Mars and a day or two away from the moon. I must say reading the about tabs, seeing what satellites and biospheres options there are... these developers put their heart and souls into this project. I would think this is up there for any sim app. I've literally paid and played 100's of apps and this would be around $5-$10 if I had to pay. But the ads like I said are a two way benefit. For the players and the developers. I'd gladly click an ad every min or so to increase and stack bonuses so build times are lessened. An absolute standout app. You can also tell by their write up they are well educated which you need to be to create such a sim.

Amazing for a mobile game. Not really into mobile games. It’s a market that’s flooded with cheap ripoffs and crappy games that look like they were done in an afternoon. However TerraGenesis actually is pretty fun. The concept is basic enough that nearly anyone can understand it, but has a bit of challenge later on so it never feels to easy. Unfortunately like nearly every game nowadays it is plagued with micro transactions, however they do not seem aggressive here. And it’s certainly easy to complete the game without them. It does take time to complete which is good for me as I can whip out my phone, work on a few things, and come back a few hours later. And the graphics are actually really good. Being able to see your planet grow to a thriving environment as well as the attention to detail make this a very nice game to look at. Easily the best mobile game I’ve played ever.

THE BEST GAME EVER!. Listen, i usually am not one to take the time to write a review... but, i will make an exception for this game, however. This is, by far, one of THE BEST games i have ever played.. ive been playing for about a month.. my first planet, had her for about 3 weeks. Wasnt paying attention, flooded out 5 million people 😂 but this game is SO MUCH FUN, that im not even mad that i had to start over. Ive now learned new techniques, build the planet, then add people. My second planet is thriving! This game calls my attention even with notifications set off. Im constantly doing something in real life and stop to check my world. This is a game of time, but its such a beautiful piece of art work that you yourself made. Its totally worth it.. and if youre THAT IMPATIENT... GP are easy to come by, so spending them wont lead to HAVING to spend money.. im about to spend money on this game because I WANT TO, not because i have to... im curious about other planets.. great game!!! Keep up the great work!

As Great As It Sounds. This app is phenomenal. I had tried it before, when it had no tutorial and just kind of threw you into the mix of things, I had not idea what I was doing and ended up uninstalling a short while later. All I have to say is I’m so glad I gave this another try. This time it totally clicked. The UI was suddenly so much easier to use and I was terraforming in no time. Honestly have no idea what changed. But wow, I’m about a week in by now and i haven’t finished even finished with Mars but I’m loving it. It’s amazingly satisfying to see the planet change based on your actions and cities pop up. As far as micro-transactions, there is a premium currency called “Genesis Points” that are used to speed up tasks, but to be honest I’ve never felt pressured to use them (which is a good thing!) The only adds you ever will get are in the form of transmissions that are used to boost income and other resources, (also not really needed but sometimes it’s handy) there are no adds when you’re clicking through menu screens. Ever. They’re totally optional and non invasive. It’s a model that should be the standard for free mobile games. So overall, yeah this game is great. If you like sci-fi or just chill strategy games you’ll love this. Absolutely hooked. Really hope they make a sequel for pc that’s paid only, there’s so much potential for a great, fully-fledged game here.

Awesome game. One suggestion.. My fiancé accidentally stumbled across this game a couple weeks ago and now she’s gotten both of us hooked. You can certainly spend real money to advance quickly, but with a little patience and some time on your hands, you can be successful without ever spending a dime of real money. My one suggestion to the developers would be to allow players to offer/receive aid from other players after things like a flood or other natural (or man-made) disasters and perhaps a way to chat with other players who are also online at the time. Other than that, great game by a great team. Oh and one last thing, for every so many carbon impact points you generate in the game, the developers will arrange to have a real-life tree planted somewhere on Earth. I believe to date over 457,000 trees have been planted as a result of this game being played. Keep up the good work.

My Favorite Game App!!!. I am not kidding when I say, get this game. It truly can be/is 100% playable, fun, you can beat it without spending a dime. (simply watch adds to get gp that you can use anywhere, it’s that simple) If you have any interest in science and planets you’ll love this game. The graphics are stunning and terraforming the planets is incredibly addicting. The best part is you can put it down and walk away and it’ll work in the background. (Just be careful not to flood your planet, did that a few times) Each of the factions are fun, unique and have their own play style. The only very minor downside to this game is sometimes it has a slight difficulty figuring out if your water/pressure/heat/etc level is steady. But this can usually be fixed with some turning off and back on things. This game keeps getting better and better with each expansion, and comes very highly recommended from a busy guy with kids. 10/10, 5 stars go get it.

In LOVE. I absolutely LOVE this game. I saw it on an ad once and was bored so I downloaded it. I like how the tutorial was very loose and I could do what I wanted to do with my cities and buildings. It was a little confusing at first cause I skipped through the buttons during the tutorial (my bad) but after I realized all the functions we were good. I love how this game does not force ads onto you, but gives you a GREAT deal for twice the revenue for an hour by watching a 30 second video. Like that’s SUCH a great deal! I was excited for the challenge of this game at first, but I did not really care much about it. But today, I audibly gasped because something went wrong and that just shows how connected I am to this game now. I love how there are random events and choices from people and I love that you can strive towards independence so it’s not just a colony. Mind you, I did not update the game yet, but I love it SO MUCH.

Love this game!. I’ve had this game on my phone for almost a year now, and I think this is the longest I’ve had any game and still played it almost daily. I’ve had an interest in space for a while and in searching for a game to satisfy my space-exploration needs, I found this, and I was hooked. It’s not always constant gameplay, a lot of it is waiting for the different temperature/pressure/oxygen/etc. levels to reach their desired level, but it is gratifying! The soundtrack is really nice and I think fits the game well, and it’s pretty relaxing, at least for me. And it doesn’t bombard you with ads, which is wonderful. So many apps just throw ads in your face all the time, and in my experience, the only time you see ads is when they offer to show you an ad in return for in-game currency, which is an acceptable deal in my opinion. I love this game, and I definitely recommend it

Great game. I honestly love this game, I’ve played it very frequently ever since I got it, I love the fact that there aren’t any enemies that pose a constant threat to your colony as with other games that I have played. The way that the game is presented is really nice too. You can colonize all of the terrestrial planets/rock planets, and you can even see the changes in the planetary environment from orbital view and the main menu when choosing another planet to colonize. And one part that I also like is that it makes you have to come back before a certain time frame otherwise your colonists abandon your colonies which is a really good move. But one thing I would like to see happen is for the developers to give us the ability to see what our colonies actually look like, almost like in sim city build it. But other than that it’s a great game that even my mom approves of, which doesn’t happen often, and I’ve even thought about showing it to my science teacher. Anyway great game and keep up the good work!!

The game has so many bugs!. Even before the update, it cause me so many problem while playing between 2 device already ( Iphone and Ipad), it almost wiped all of my work 1 time because it is not sync and upload. So everytime I play, I had to uploaded it before switch it into another device. Now after I updated 5.8, it litterally can not sync anymore no matter how hard I tried, it seem like I am playing 2 different games from 1 uploaded. To fix it, I have to upload it before turn off on first device, and the second device I have to get it back the same stuffs I worked on by turn off facebook icloud and sync back in again and click on “use previous upload”. So right now I had to delete my iphone game to clear it up, but I feel like I will also delete it on IPad too

It’s ok, but.... It’s an alright game, however it’s not what I was expecting I wasn’t expecting so much text and so little visuals. Even the planet rotating in that one world icon shows the supposed mountains you built your city in, shows up as a pit instead. However the thing that is really actually bothering me is the gp buying and the governors. You can buy 50gp for $5, and then if you decide screw it I wanna get more you just got scammed because if you buy the $5 again you just ripped yourself off because the one for $10 gives 200gp so you ended up with half the amount buying 2 $5 amounts than you would have gotten with just going straight for the $10 one. The other frustrating thing is the free daily governors you unlock bug out I unlocked them over 10 times and when I try to assign them o a city it tells me THEY ARENT UNLOCKED YET, when I literally just unlocked them over and over again 10+ times it keeps undoing the unlocking I just did in them and it pisses me off, I closed the game and reopened it again a few times and still doesn’t work! Fix the governors! Once unlocked stop locking them after I unlock them!!!

Truly immersive. Edit... again: After what turned out to be a problem with dog boxs customer service, support helped get me my gp. I felt bad they didn’t get a cut from the purchase i made so i went and got the all access pass. They deserve the support for how fantastic this game is and how helpful they’ve been. I absolutely love how this game has taken it’s pacing and deciding where it wants to go as a game. The sound mixed with the visuals are something to get lost in. I had such wonderlust when i first watched as mars gained an atmosphere. The gameplay is very intricate and detailed with every decision mattering. I thought it was gonna be more of a sandbox and i thought I’d be funny and turn mars into pandora but then i got invested by how detrimental each decision was, making this game both delicate in long term effects but ultimately very free as you develop the planet your own way. It also reminds me heavily of terraforming in spore, which was amongst my favorite modes in that classic game.

Biosphere needs work. Ok so I like the game, however I don’t like how you can’t have 2 species that have the same traits in the the Biosphere. Besides that I think you need to add a sub category to the Gene Library Phylum Selection, to better explain here is an example below, ======================================== Let’s say you want to make a species of mammal, ok so now let’s pick what type of mammal you’re going to make, is it going to be a type of canine or is it going to be a type of primate ======================================== That is what you guys need to add like give us a bit of choice on how are species effect the ecosystem like if I add a species of reptile and I make it like a canine it has an effect on all the species species I already have just think how that would effect the ecosystem how would it effect my human settlement how would it effect that it would probably be more fun and difficult but besides that I love the game keep doing a great job
