Terraforming Mars: Automa is the official solo expansion that turns your Terraforming Mars sessions into a true head-to-head battle against the Marsbot system. Instead of racing the clock, you now compete against algorithm-driven corporations that play cards, grab milestones and awards, and claim spaces on the board just like human opponents do. Special Automa decks and boards keep the AI smooth to run while still delivering a tense, strategic experience every time you play.
Key Features:
Fully realized solo opponent: Marsbot simulates rival corporations, giving solo games a strong sense of interaction, pressure and competition far beyond the basic solo mode.
Expansion for Terraforming Mars: Automa is an expansion, not a stand-alone game, designed for players who want to enjoy the full Terraforming Mars experience even when no group is available.
Works with all major expansions: Extra boards and rules let you plug in big-box expansions like Prelude, Colonies and Venus Next, tuning the difficulty and complexity exactly to your liking.
Component-rich Automa system: Includes 46 Marsbot corps, 31 Marsbot bonus cards, 6 board reference cards, 6 Automa boards, a triple-layered tracker, Colonies board, Venus Next track, plastic cubes, rulebook and a final scoring reference card.
Created by renowned solo designers: Designed by solo-mode specialists Nick Shaw and David Turczi, bringing their AI expertise to one of the most beloved modern strategy games.
Deep, strategic solo sessions: With a single player, roughly 120 minutes of playtime and a higher recommended age range, Automa is tailored to experienced Terraforming Mars fans who enjoy long-form strategy.
More variety than the standard solo race: Automa brings milestones, awards, interactive cards and board presence into solo play, making far more card combos viable and giving you a wider range of strategic paths to explore.
Why Choose Terraforming Mars: Automa?
Terraforming Mars: Automa is ideal if you already love Terraforming Mars but wish the solo mode felt more like facing a real opponent. Marsbot turns every solo game into a tactical duel where timing, board control and long-term engine building truly matter, because someone – or something – is pushing back. The system remains surprisingly smooth to operate, so you spend your time making meaningful decisions instead of managing fiddly AI rules. And since Automa is built to accommodate all major expansions, it scales alongside your collection, keeping your solo experience challenging and fresh for years. For dedicated Terraforming Mars players, it’s a powerful way to unlock the game’s full potential at any time, even when you’re playing alone.
