Origin Story

Lunar Base began in 2017 when six friends in Estonia set themselves a simple challenge: create a portable card game they would genuinely want to play together. What started as a rough homemade prototype grew through years of experimentation, playtesting, balancing, artwork and world-building into a fast, compact strategy game about humanity’s race to colonize the Moon. Along the way the team grew, ideas were tested and discarded, and countless small improvements shaped the game into its final form—culminating in a successful Kickstarter campaign that transformed a project between friends into a published board game played around the world.
