Read the full game description

In 2XXX, the Earth in no longer livable. Human beings have found another planet on which to settle down. By using new technologies, they started "Terra Shifting plans" to create a new Earth. As a Terra Shifter, you're assigned to finish the final shifting plan, while keep providing animal habitats under natural disaster... Terra Shifter is a cooperative, puzzle-like game. Players have to take turns moving, flipping, or shifting tiles to form designated color areas on the mission card, and try to form another on the goal card. If you finished all four goal cards, you beat the game, but if you've consumed all mission cards before doing so, you lose. The game includes disaster cards that limit players' movement or hand, which you can add in the game to increase difficulty. Another competitive variant for 2~5 players is also included.
