Race To Mars is a turn based simulation that wants to challenge you to get a group of pioneers up on and colonizing the big red planet. But Intermarum doesn’t just hand you billions of dollars and ships to go about your dream, you’ll need to start small, research and develop new technologies and spaceships, lobby for your budget with the help of the media and fans, sell R&D for funding, blast off your fledgling ship and crew and finally develop ways to sustain life on mars. Race To Mars should satisfy both space fans and cut throat economy wizkids. The team hopes to have the game ready for a first quarter 2014 launch and there will also be a Kickstarter soon to help fund and polish the project to release.
