Reus is a side-scrolling real-time management strategy game set in a fantasy setting. You have to take control of the universe as mighty titans, possessing all imaginable forces of nature. Among the powers mentioned are: changing the landscape, creating life, controlling the weather and manipulating genetics. The only thing the titans have no power over is humanity, with all its virtues and vices. Thus, you are faced with a difficult task — to create conditions under which man will not be powerless over nature, but nature will not fall from human greed.
