Shackleton Base: A Journey to the Moon

Move mankind to the Moon!

In the very near future, mankind is setting up a base in the center of the Shackleton crater at the Moon's South Pole. Players lead space agencies working together to expand the human presence on the Moon. The mission is sponsored by 3 major corporations, each pursuing its own goals.

Shackleton Base: a Journey to the Moon is a Eurogame strategy game based on a modular sandbox system. It can be played by 1 to 4 players.

The game box contains 7 unique Corporations, but only 3 are chosen each game. Each Corporation introduces its own challenges:

Selenium Research requires you to retrieve samples from the Moon's surface for analysis,
Sky Watch requires you to work in semi-cooperation to destroy an asteroid heading for the Moon, Artemis Tour urges you to welcome tourists to your lunar base, Moon Mining specializes in extracting and shipping rare resources to Earth, EverGreen aims for food autonomy on Mars, and encourages you to build vegetable farms in the crater, To Mars begins space migration to the Red Planet with your support, Space Robotics invites you to invest in their versatile robots and technologies. 

With the help of 3 different types of astronaut (Technicians, Engineers and Scientists), you'll need to build structures within the crater, conduct corporate projects and enhance your reputation as a space agency.
