1. Game ends when there is enough oxygen to breathe (14%), oceans enough to allow Earth-like weather (9 aquifers), and the temperature is well above freezing (+8˚C).

2. The winner is the player with most VPs at the end of the game. VPs come from:

- your Terraform Rating (TR). Each time you raise a global parameter: Add ocean, increase Oxygen or Temperature, you gain a VP.

- your tiles on the game board. Greenery tiles are worth 1 VP at the end of the game, and also provide 1 VP to any adjacent city

- won awards. Capital city tile also scores one point for each adjacent ocean.

5 VPs are awarded to the player who wins a founded category

The second place gets 2 VPs (except in a 2-player game, where second place does not give any VPs). Ties are friendly: more than one player may get the first or second place bonus. If more than one player gets 1st place bonus, no 2nd place is awarded.

- Claimed milestones. Each claimed milestone is worth 5 VPs at the end of the game. Only 3 of the 5 milestones may be claimed.

- VPs on cards you have played. First, count all VPs on cards that collect resources. Then gather all of your remaining cards (including all your played events!) and count your VPs. If you have Jovian cards, these may have to be counted separately. (To identify this look for the number, or an effect like X VP / Y number of resources, marked inside the planet Mars Icon)
