Moon Tycoon - 10% OFF

"This strategy game tasks you with building and maintaining a lunar colony. Your role as the colony's leader is multifaceted. For example, you must build structures, maintain balance among use of water, energy, and power; keep your citizens happy; and ensure sufficient cash flow. We'd guess most users will want to start off with the Tutorial, where a talking captain walks you through MoonTycoon's gameplay. After that, you can build a colony from the ground up, or you can undertake specific missions in Campaign mode. We can't complain much about the graphics and ambient sound effects, and the amount of customization options seems adequate for this type of game. Besides the relatively short one-hour trial period, the biggest downside we notice is the game's tendency to consume a good deal of system memory. We'd guess sci-fi buffs who also enjoy strategy games are the most likely audience for MoonTycoon."

"The most appealing aspect of MoonTycoon is the 3D graphics. The camera angles let you see just about every aspect of your city. As great as the graphics are, it does take a little practice to get use to the controls. If you enjoy city building games, and want a break from "SimCity," "MoonTycoon" is the way to go."

"Moon Tycoon is the first ever 3-D Sim / Strategy game featuring complete camera freedom and dynamic surround sound within ultra realistic, fully 3-D environments. In this game you build lunar colonies, create industries, trade with Earth and alien races, and survive the perils and disasters of life in space. Players take mankind to the final frontier by colonizing the Moon, solving the Earth's energy crisis, and boldly going beyond the stars to befriend or conquer aliens, while unlocking the mysteries of the universe."
