About This Game

Get ready to explore the Moon and mine its resources.

You are a one-person mining company. You bought a base, rented a second-hand mining rover and paid to have it dropped on the Moon. It is there. You are here, in a chair on Earth, with three monitors and a payment schedule.

The rover does nothing on its own. Every metre it drives and every hole it drills, you do by hand, through a radio link that answers late. Find something valuable, dig it out, haul it home, sell it, make the payment. Then make the rover a little less dumb, and go further out, where the good stuff is.

FEATURES

  • Real-time driving with a 1.3-second signal delay each way

  • A 2 km claim in the Apollo 17 valley, mapped by your own radar

  • 3 more missions you earn as you play: a photo survey of the Apollo 15 landing site, an ice run inside Shackleton crater and the rescue of a lost rover

  • 8 lunar resources, with prices that change every day

  • Real lunar temperatures, from +111 °C at noon to −180 °C before dawn, through a two-week day and a two-week night

  • 5 upgrade trees and 7 rover parts that wear, fail and get repaired

  • A three-monitor operator console: Rover feed, Finances, Repairs and upgrades

  • Time compression from x1 to x1800

  • 38 awards for your wall, shelf and desk as well as your Steam account

THE LAG IS THE GAME

Every command reaches the rover 1.3 seconds after you send it, and every picture you see is 1.3 seconds old. Brake early. Steer in short taps. Stopping right on top of a deposit is a skill, and you will get good at it.

PROSPECT, DRILL, HAUL

Ping the radar to lift the fog off the map. Drive up to each contact and it assays itself. Park over the deposit and drill: eight real lunar resources, from worthless regolith to ice in shadowed craters and helium-3.

EVERY TRIP IS A BET

Battery, cargo and wear are all finite, and one more vein is always tempting. Run flat far from base and the Company will tow you home, for a price. The clock never stops, and charging takes hours.

THE DEBT IS THE CLOCK

$1,350 is due every week, plus rent on the rover. Ore is not money: it sits on the stockpile until you pay for a shuttle to collect it, and prices move every day. When to sell matters as much as what you dig. Miss three payments and the bank takes it all back.

THE MOON AS IT IS

Your claim is two kilometres of the Taurus–Littrow valley, where Apollo 17 landed. The Sun and Earth sit where they really would in that sky, and a lunar day lasts a month. Can your rover survive a two-week night? Temperature is part of every plan: in sunlight the drill overheats, and in the dark the battery goes cold, loses capacity and spends the charge you need to drive on keeping itself warm. You hear only what travels through the rover itself.

MAKE THE ROVER LESS DUMB

Five upgrade trees: drive and power, drill and cargo, sensors, automation, and base logistics. Parts wear out and need repairs.

Earn enough to automate some parts of your work or just drive and drill yourself.
