Lunar Colony is a simple game that is hard to master. The goal is to become as rich as possible in a limited amount of time.

The setting is the Moon, in the near future. In a gesture of world unity, a group of Corporations and World powers have united to assist each other in colonizing the Moon. By combining resources they set up a Lunar Space Port that is used by the competing teams to send and receive resources to and from the Earth.

Each player takes turns building facilities on the 9 x 9 Lunar surface. These facilities produce resources that are then used or sold. Some facilities require resources in order to function.
