Get ready for an out-of-this-world adventure that puts humanity on the Moon’s South Pole! In the very near future, mankind is setting up a crucial base in the center of the mysterious Shackleton crater, and you're at the helm. In Shackleton Base: A Journey to the Moon, players lead their own space agencies, working to expand the human presence on our closest celestial neighbor.

This exciting lunar exploration game throws you right into the thick of strategic space agency management. Each player controls a space agency tasked with developing vital infrastructure, conducting daring missions, and advancing technology to establish a thriving lunar colony in the Moon’s harsh environment. But it's not all about kumbaya in space! Your mission is sponsored by three major corporations, each pursuing its own distinct goals. This means you'll need to master the delicate balance between cooperation and healthy competition to succeed, as these powerful corporations pursue differing objectives on the Moon.

Shackleton Base is perfect for 2-4 players, offering hours of immersive and strategic gameplay. Every decision you make about resource management, cutting-edge research, and base development will determine the fate of the lunar base and humanity's footprint on the Moon's surface. Get ready for a compelling, future-driven narrative of space exploration, corporate rivalry, and teamwork!
