Easter Eggs with Jacob, #4

Jacob Fryxelius, designer of Terraforming Mars, reveals some of the easter eggs hidden in Terraforming Mars in this weekly article series.

CrediCor

Corporations are sometimes lead by eccentric CEOs, and this is true for CrediCor. This has the effect that CrediCor prioritizes big and spectacular projects!

The CrediCor logo is based on one of the many alchemic symbols for gold, which, suitably, is also similar to the symbol for Mars. It was only slightly altered to have ‘credits in the core’, and even more resembling an asteroid impact – a typical project for CrediCor.

CrediCor’s business activities can be seen in cards like Earth Office and Business Contacts… and they are of course your Allied Bank of choice if you play with PRELUDE (which you do, right?)

The CrediCor logo is based on one of many alchemic symbols for gold, which also resembles an asteroid impact, and also the symbol for Mars. Very suitable!
