Gameplay
Reus involves guiding four elemental giants who have the ability to shape the two-dimensional planet. The giants can provide resources on each «patch» of land, such as animals, plants, or minerals.

The actions of the player can influence the humans' behavior; for example, providing humans with too many resources can cause them to be greedy and wage wars with each other.
