Rolling dice, cannibalism, babies – Tharsis has something for everyone. So what exactly is Tharsis?
“Tharsis is a complex strategy game, but it doesn’t take much time to understand and master the basics of it,” writes Choice Provisions co-founder Mike Roush. “That said, you’ll almost surely die a lot when you first start playing, and you may even find yourself having to sacrifice crewmates just to make it to the next turn. Perils such as these are to be expected in the harsh, indifferent realm of space, but they can be mitigated with a little patience and strategizing.”
So it’s basically Gravity with a touch of Dead Space. Thankfully, the development team put together a strategy guide with a list of survival tips for anyone who’s planning on checking out the game.
