About Moonbase Alpha?

Moonbase Alpha is an immersive video game that offers a realistic simulation of life on a natural satellite, based on potential moon base programs. Set in the year 2032, the game allows players to explore the daily challenges faced by lunar-based astronauts. When a meteor strike damages an outpost near the moon's South Pole, the player must assume the role of a member of the outpost's research team and work to repair the outpost in order to preserve the 12 years of research completed there. This will involve tasks such as repairing vital components of the life support system, solar array, and oxygen units using a wide variety of tools, including robotic repair units and the lunar rover.
