Roving Rovers

Roving Rovers is an exploration and resource-management game about piloting a lunar rover. You explore the Moon’s surface to find resources and complete missions, helping determine whether it can become a home for humanity. The terrain is based on imported scans of the lunar surface, so the craters, rocks and ridges you drive over reflect a genuine lunar landscape.

Explore and gather

You travel across a vast, open-ended lunar map, collecting resources and looking for information. Planning your resource management and exploring carefully help you make progress toward assessing the Moon as a possible home for humanity.

Customise your rover

You can customise your rover with different parts and paint, making it suit your taste. The game began as a replica of the internationally recognised Australian Rover Challenge, with the aim of helping players understand the complexities of lunar and otherworldly rover missions. It is based on the realities of the space industry and was developed with support from The Andy Thomas Centre for Space Resources, University of Adelaide and Flinders University.
