Take On Mars (TKOM) is a simulation video game for Windows, developed by Bohemia Interactive.

The game was announced at E3 2013 and released in its alpha version on 1 August of that year.

It is the second installment in the Take On series after Take On Helicopters.

The user assumes control of a rover or lander in order to explore Mars.

The spacecraft can be equipped with scientific instruments by the player in order to study the Martian surface and complete objectives.

The game includes seven destinations for the player to visit: Asteroid Belt, Deimos moon, Gale crater, Kaiser crater, Lyot crater, Ptolemaeus crater, and Victoria crater; with Mars Yard located on earth as a testing ground.

Each map is a perfect square (four by four kilometers) with an area of 16km2 (6.2mi2) to be explored with various objectives.

Not all locations however are encompassed in the bounding zone, since the craters on mars take up more than 16 km2 (e.g. Gale and Kaiser crater).
