A simultaneous-play Euro-style board game that combines speculation, market timing, and tableau-building. You compete to mine the Moon for the newly-discovered lunethyst crystals and lunarium ore.
Description:
In the twenty-second century, humans return to the Moon and build bases for mining, research, and leisure. In 2148, an expeditionary team makes two remarkable discoveries: a previously unknown crystal and a new type of metal. Both possess unique properties with applications across several industries including medicine, space travel, and technology. Like gold and diamonds, both are also valued and admired for their beauty. Earth’s four major conglomerates immediately invest trillions of dollars, constructing new Moon bases near the richest veins. By 2149, a “new gold rush” is under way: a ruthless, relentless race to mine and sell lunethyst and lunarium.
