Moon Tycoon

Moon Tycoon is a city-building game about creating a lunar colony. You construct buildings, manage the colony and alter the terrain across three campaigns, each with its own story and ten levels. The campaigns form one larger story and must be played in order, starting with the first; they begin around 2021.

Three campaigns

In the first campaign, a global energy crisis on Earth can only be stopped by Helium 3, a precious ore found on the Moon. The second takes place after the crisis ends, as corporations compete for control of the Moon while space-borne epidemics, discontent over living conditions and space disasters become more frequent. In the third, humanity moves on to the next stage of space exploration: colonizing the asteroid belt beyond Mars. Each campaign’s levels have varying difficulty.

Sandbox mode

In sandbox mode, you can choose the Moon or an asteroid and set the starting money, terrain type, ore quantity and average building life.

Build your colony

The Play Area displays completed and under-construction structures. You use it to start building and alter the terrain; it is raised above the surrounding view and can also display a grid. Building menus offer structures in these categories:

• Housing and Medical
• Tourism
• Research
• Rewards, earned by completing different objectives
• Utilities
• Industry

The game also has Colony Management, Disasters and Options menus.
