About this board game
Lunar Base is a strategy card game for 2–6 players that plays in about 30 minutes. Each player begins at a unique base station and competes to build the most formidable moon base.
Expand your colony by building powerful modules. Connect cards with matching orb halves to grow your base, explore new combinations, and develop tactics that can change from one playthrough to the next.
Recruit agents to infiltrate opposing bases and apply their one-time effects. Timing your plays and responding to rival progress are central to the race across the lunar surface.
There are four ways to claim victory:
- Grow your colony
- Advance scientific research
- Amass lunar credits
- Gain the most influence
With high replayability, easy setup, and adjustable difficulty, Lunar Base offers a medium-light weight experience that is approachable for newer players while still giving seasoned strategists room to experiment. Every game presents opportunities to discover different card combinations and tactics.
Compact and portable, it works well as a quick warm-up, filler, or wind-down game, and it can also serve as the launchpad for a best-of-3, best-of-5, or best-of-7 game night. Simple to learn yet challenging to master, Lunar Base delivers a small but mighty contest for lunar supremacy.
