Lunar Rush

Four corporate conglomerates compete to mine newly discovered lunar resources and time their sales on Earth’s markets. Each round players bid GigaCredits for space routes with different travel times and cargo capacities, then simultaneously manage bases and assign astronaut workers on the Moon to produce upkeep goods and extract lunethyst and lunarium. Players upgrade their base tableau to build engine synergies, balance slower high-capacity shipments versus fast low-capacity runs, and sell mined goods into a dynamic market that shifts prices. After a fixed number of rounds, points in GigaCredits determine the most profitable operation.
