Turn 1: Entering the Evolution phase
One of the AI's is busy, and manipulates the surroundings of some of the flying mountains to contain lot's of ice and metals. He also attracts several asteroids, and has them orbit the planet as impromptu moons. The other live manages to survive there, but not well.
In the mountains, an AI is manipulating the bacteria, giving them the ability to float, and causing an annual explosion of life that is then carried away by the winds. Aided by another AI, it also works to create a giant spire, that due to an impressive collaboration technology and life, does in fact go through the entire planet. Inside is a biological system that allows linking of AI's to it.
The other AI goes on to increase plant life on the mountains, and to detach some of the magnetic fields from the crust. By allowing them to fluctuate, the floating mountains can fly around in a rudimentary fashion.
After this show of power, the AI's go into hibernation. While they sleep, the terraforming process continues, and the planet changes. The ocean rise, the athmosphere changes, and life begins the first steps towards evolution. On the Northen continents, several lifeforms have left a lake, and through rapid adaption have conquered the continent. Life there is constantly in flux, a constant battle between ever changing predators and prey. The biotopes are varied, as is the life life.
On the Other side of the world, massive forests have formed, of all different types. On rocks they are composed off lichen and fungi, on flat fertile ground of massive rain forests. Elsewhere massive bamboo fields and reeds have taken hold, or large wetlands have formed. Not many predators exists here, and even the herbivores are rare. As it appears, the trees have taken advantage of the possibility of interspecies communication to hamper the development of anything that can kill them, by constantly outputting random signals, preventing others from understanding anything.
Amongst these stands an enormous spire, reaching to the Heavens itself. It's said that this is the center of almost all life.
The Strange life has dissapeared from the skies, and has retreated to the magnetical mountains they managed to conquer. They control mostly polar mountains, and defend them fiercely, by controlling the thunder and lightning . Nevertheless there don't seem to be much signs of intelligence.
On the other side, massive plants have taken over much of the remaining flying mountains, on some occasions even anchoring them to the ground. A few of the mountains have even picked up some of the rapidly adapting life from the other continent.
The seas meanwhile, have taken on a variety of colors.The North is still blue, as again predators fight a battle of evolution. The Middle oceans have colored red, having been colonized by red shrubs, which have also tried to encroach on the continents at both side, but have failed.
The Southern parts of the ocean meanwhile, have a combination of colors. Variations of the massive trees from the continent battle with the invading shrubs, but in so far none of them are losing ground.
On the moons, live has been evolving. On the Red moon, the strange life has died out, though the other life has clamped on. The entire planet being basically a desert, strange lifeforms have evolved. With the sun being a deadly menace(no magnetic field, thin athmosphere), this life rests mostly underground, using the evening sun or the heat from the sand to practise their variation of photosynsthesis.
On the blue Moon however, things have been different. Using the water as a barrier, large fields of kelp have formed on a depth of about 100 meters, and different lifeforms live below. Above them the strange life prospers, seemingly unharmed by the solar radiation.
The other asteroid moons seem desolate, but the scanner still gives signs of the strange life, apparently hidden in the cores.

Everyone has 10 energy, and at the moment, an energy regeneration of 2. Various actions have various costs, and energy can be invested to increase succes rates.
Passive manipulation: 2-X energy (This is simple, culling numbers of a species that don't have the traits you want.)
Manipulate surroundings: 5- X energy
Manipulate species: 5- X energy(Abducting and cloning things)
And others, these are just suggestions
