Developer Gaijin Games has announced a release date for Tharsis, a turn-based mission to Mars strategy game.

Tharsis is a strategy game with board game roots as the original prototype was design with “dice, paper, and lots of love,” said Gaijin Games, best known for the Bit.Trip series, co-founder Mike Roush.
