Description
In a distant future, Mankind has nearly exploited all of the natural resources of our exhausted planet. As various resource wars flare up, nations begin forming alliances in order to arrive at a better solution than simply fighting to the last. A solution is found: the MoonBase probe. Remotely controlled by a single pilot, the probe lands on the surface of any available planet, replicates its central Hub, and expands across the planet in search of life-giving energy. The already fragile alliance crumbles as its leaders recognize the potential of the probe. Four factions arise from the ashes of a fallen alliance--each with its own objectives. What started as a tool to harvest resources has now been forged into a deadly weapon of war. You begin as a pilot for your chosen faction. As you operate your Hub remotely, you wage a campaign across each planet, searching for energy-rich pools while destroying anything that would dare to take your hard-earned resources.

Moonbase Commander is a simple to learn, difficult to master turn-based strategy game where you are fighting for the limited resources of a planet against either the AI or other players. If you are feeling creative, you can make customized maps with the included Map Editor.
  • A tough AI that gives strategy veterans a run for their money.
  • Easy to learn, difficult to master gameplay keeps the action fast and exciting!
  • Includes an exceptionally easy-to-use map editor.

Excellent game, excellent value

This is a fantastic game that I bought on CD back in the day, and have turned numerous friends on to over the years. Thrilled that it's now available on GoG. TIP: Be sure to download the indispensable companion utility Moonbase Console, a configurable random map generator for Moonbase Commander that even works in multiplayer, increasing the already-high replay value of this fine game. Highly recommended.

This game is great

My dad got me this game years ago, when I was a kid. I used to play it all the time with my brother. I started playing again, and it's still as fun then as it is now. This game is perfect for LANs and even works with multiple people all at the same PC. I love the mechanics of this game, and have not seen anything similar in a while. Don't let the "Humongous" fool you, it's an amazing game. P.S. It works great in Wine in Linux. P.P.S. I have an actual CD of this game! :-D

Fond Memories

This is one of the games I bought as a kid. I loved the story and the unique gameplay so much that I even created my own version (Critical). The only thing I thought was missing was special units or powers for each faction. Only the graphics are differentiated for each.

An all-time top 10 favorite

Simply one of the best Strategy games ever made. Easy to learn... even for little ones. Gameplay is G rated and will run great on almost any hardware... Old or new. Buy MoonBase Commander here and get it DRM-free!

Still worth playing - and cloning!

I am surprised that this game didn't spawn any sequels or clones, honestly. This is a solid game that has a lot of replay value. Well worth picking up.
