  1. 6.7 out of 10

    Very good, above average it's longer than 7 Wonders and shorter than Terraforming Mars. Loses half a point as it doesn't prevent hate drafting with alternating passing directions per era and it's much longer than anticipated ~3hours as a three Some art is amazing, nice components cards are 65*100mm fairly large considering Pictures @ Instagram IG AmassGames or Google AmassGames Met the designer and best of the trilogy Google AmassGames (2,300 board game reviews, podcast, 3000+ Instagram posts and more)

  2. 7.5 out of 10

    I kinda got suckered into this buy. I'd looked at the game and had history with Insert Fish's other games (Streets and Villagers) and passed on it, but the hype train got me. Moon is a good game, but I'm not sure it's a great game. Its basically a more interesting version of 7 Wonders. Not too much take that, no real futzing with your opponents. It's got a cool box, and somehow both better and worse components.

  3. 7 out of 10

    An okay game. I like the underlying gameplay - the engine building, the drafting, the push-pull with the flags. It's too long at 4p. The drafting takes a while because the turns are sequential and you have to read everything in the hand you're passed (especially the expedition). You're at the mercy of the cards but even more so than normal because of the drafting mechanic. I might see a card I want to play but I can't afford yet. But I also don't want anyone else to play it. So I have to assimilate it for resources (trash it) as denial or suffer someone else getting to it before I see it again. Bleh. Turn order is very rough. Depending on the goals, early turn order can be HUGE since those players can accomplish the goals first just because of turn order. The goals are too powerful. Getting a goal is a tough race AND not only do you get points for it but you also can have a nice power that pushes you forward for the rest of the game. You can't always plan for this because turn order will mess it up. It's just too swingy for my taste. Overall, a fun, enjoyable game, but not my favorite. Overstays its welcome a bit.

Moon depicts an almost plausible rush to construct lunar bases that are attractive places to live and work for the people of Earth. The most prestigious base will become the new lunar capital!

The game employs the familiar "pick & pass" or "hand drafting" mechanism for players to select a new structure cards to add to their base. Each hand of cards represents a convoy of experts and equipment travelling between the players’ outposts, giving the player the choice of one new construction each turn. In a new twist on the genre, each hand always contains one of a number of "Expedition" cards that grant a special free action every turn before passing on to the next player.

Wooden lunar rover tokens are a neutral resource that add a worker placement element to the game. They are also used to break ties and so must be used with care.

Over the three distinct eras of the game, players compete for majority in 5 aspects of their bases: housing, transportation, science, industry, and food production. At the end of each era, the leader in each of these areas as determined by flag icons on their constructed buildings, collects bonus victory points.

Each game also features a number of randomly selected "Reputation" cards which provide one-time or ongoing bonuses for the player who meets the requirement and claims the card.

Moon is the third game of a loose trilogy, preceeded by Villagers and Streets.
