Terraforming Mars: Big Box is both a storage option for all the Terraforming Mars material released to date — the base game, five expansions, and the first-player rover — as well as a set of 3D terrain tiles to dress up the game. Within the box are:

• 24 city tiles (four each of six designs)
• 40 forest tiles (eight each of five designs)
• 9 ocean tiles
• 14 special tiles (the original eleven, plus three new ones)

Terraforming Mars: Big Box also comes with three new cards that relate to the three new special tiles, card dividers, and five plastic markers for the global parameters.
