What is Reus 2?
In this single-player, turn-based god game, you direct elemental giants to shape planetary biomes, placing plants, animals, and minerals so human settlements gain resources and meet their goals. Each playthrough guides a civilization from early societies toward different modern outcomes and adds its planet to a growing galaxy.

What players say
94% of 2,315 reviews are positive · 78% of 23 in the last 30 days
Players praise the relaxing optimization puzzles, visual style, and rewarding ecosystem synergies. The most common complaint is that it plays more like a score-focused tile puzzle than a city builder or colony sim; some players also find the tutorial and interface unclear, and the progression repetitive.
