MOON COLONY BLOODBATH – Cities on the moon! This will be humanity’s crowning achievement. At last, no longer bound to the Earth; the moon, a stepping stone to the stars. The rockets are loaded with supplies and colonists; the robots are programmed and ready. Everything has been planned down to the tiniest detail, and there is no chance whatsoever of failure. To the moon! This is an engine-building engine-losing tableau game, with a shared deck the players build that makes things happen, many of them bad things that kill people in your moon colony, but some positive, and some that let you build up. The game lasts until one player’s moon colony has no people left in it, or the players reach the bottom of the Event deck; the player with the most survivors wins.
COLONY SURVIVAL: Plan and strategize as you attempt to have the most survivors on the Moon while events that kill your people keep happening.
LIFE & DEATH: During the game you will be drawing cards, some bad and some good that will determine the fate of your colony. Some will give you an advantage to surviving, while others will kill off some of your colony.
OUT TO SPACE: Take the trek out to the newly colonized moon, try to outlast the other colonies and control the moon yourselves.
BE HUMANITIES CROWNING ACHIEVEMENT: Humanity is venturing into the stars, leaving Earth behind to colonize new planets. Be the greatest city of humanities history as you survive the treacherous moon.
PLAY TIME: Moon Colony Bloodbath is perfect for 1-5 Players, takes 45-90 minutes, and for ages 14+.

Very fun game, always a go-to
Very fun engine builder game with a different feeling because you also lose your engine. It’s a perfect mix of strategy & randomness, it’s thinky but not overwhelmingly complicated.

Fun game
Fun to Play, fairly easy to learn. First time we played everyone loved it. We still love it and my 9 year old grand son asks to play it everyday. After the first play I realized there were cards we never used so I had to reread the instructions to figure out where we went wrong. I reread the instructions and problem solved.

Right up my alley
It’s a game, so the question is: does it tickle your fancy? It does for me. Like the humor, the artwork, lightish strategy. I prefer card driven games. Really enjoyed it.

Beware the robots
This game has everything. Easy to pick up for beginners, mastery of strategy for more advanced players, quick engine builder for everyone. The these is so funny and flavor text is giggle-worthy. Art work is stylish in that 40s-50s era Sci-fi we all love. And as always, be are the robots.

Great game in under 40 minutes
Great quick game about engine building and destruction. Simultaneous gameplay pair with shared disaster, great theme and comedy in its card description and mechanics.

Crazy fun!
So much fun!! Gotta get comfortable with losing. A lot. But everyone else is too, so you’re all on the level.Build your colony on the Moon, managing food, money, research, and buildings containing your people. Then be prepared to see it all get demolished by hunger, accidents, twists, and well meaning yet full on glitchy robots.Everything starts off pretty easy, but it doesn’t take long to go downhill, fast
